Monks Strike for Food and Trousers

We noted two weeks ago a strike of the Swiss Guard in the Vatican. We note this week the strike of monks of St. Michael's Monastery at Maikop in the Caucasus. They demand more food, more leisure, and a supply of trousers. The head of the monastery refuses to grant the demand, and consequently the bells are silent.
