Nudists Demand Skiing Huts

Lachendes Leben (Laughing Life) is the monthly of German naturists since 1925. Not a single dressed person is to be found in the magazine, not even in winter. In the December 1926 issue there is a lyrical description of a skiing-trip. The naturists do miss an essential, though: 'Quick, strip off your clothes ... can we think of something lovelier than this? When will the national institutions in charge finally understand? When will the state start building skiing huts in the mountains? When will there be expert state controlled education promoting national health?... Frisch auf zu fröhlicher Fahrt, der Schnee lacht von den Bergen!'
