the white man a challenge incentive he wants to unveil the secret that is so viciously safeguarded to pornographic and bring it back to his fellow men the success of the white man depends upon the loyal cooperation of the native and mr dedicates this picture and siamese where so faithful and shoulder to shoulder with him and who had the biggest share of the dangers elephants and men were specially chosen for us by the salt when we arrived at the jumping off place we found everything in readiness for departure where with those eyes the servant problem solved then introduced us to our number one gunner captain and see the best shop in ea weeks away the train went it's way down the road leading to the jungle defying the man eating tiger a largely wild elephant and the deadly python lying in its path we were going into a strange world with strange new laws the main wagon train had started two weeks ahead of us and were taking the roundabout and safer route there were sixty four carts and other conveniences in this drawn by oxen and water buffalo the little fellows  this could hardly be we still insist it wasn't such a safe route but then maybe we're wrong there's a jungle scout ready to pry a warning my leather busy sentinels started climbing to hire purchase or better observation snake in the grass we were used to hollywood snakes but this was the real notice that he will not allow the python to get a double turn on his hand mr skank gave orders to keep the python but not in his the only day have fallen victims of the fake jungle people its symptoms are somewhat like those of our influenza miss baldwin was the first to be taken and in the excitement we didn't realize her danger but she was during the previous night all the beaters had been sent out over a five mile spread ready for the signal to start the drive our cameras had been cleverly camouflaged behind screens of shrubbery other talkers had secure themselves to platforms in high tree when the signal was given the five mile wide circle of peter started to converge toward our camp every animal within the circle was driven toward us the hunt was on step by step we made our way through to our other camera while this was going on we kept it we would have liked to have directed this scene by make sure handle boy this is going to be good watch was too bad it looks like this baby will be sitting on a handle don't with covered with fleas jungle or no jungle this fellow dancer but managed to get around with every boy and a girl he was saying no no no the still black mantle of the jungle had spread itself dangerous things were repeating the gloomy shadows deadliest of snakes for the ride but the food they find on the elephant the dining cars of the jungle a white elephant is sacred animal and very rare this was probably the first time one had ever been photographed in his make up on the side of him had a powerful religious effect upon our native moving all of them to  it took nerve to do this it's one thing to chase an elephant but it's an altogether different matter when the elephant chases you the boys are getting away with it for the time being but  a stampede in the making there was something in the air that spell trouble you can drive them just so far and after that look out because when they get mad at you boy they're ma there goes the two thousand dollar camera and we don't blame the cameraman for leaving his lonesome looking camera behind but we had twelve cameras on the job existence easiest because an antelope can conquer a tiger and to make it perfect he actually thinks we only thought we could get close enough to him to photograph we left our elephant train some distance from the slow day as we could only approach them with the utmost stealth we had made a sixteen thousand mile trip to photograph these animals and there they were they looked so harmless that we felt like laughing but they too are stars in our pictures it seemed to us that it would be a simple matter to walk up to one of those cows and milk her but then we remembered that a few zoos can bowl to owning a slow day and it is seldom indeed that one of these animals heads will be found in the trophy room to be tied to conning for the average hunter of course we're not as close to them as these pictures make us see it was only through the use of high powered telescopic lenses that our cameraman were able to make these pictures and it can be plainly see we noticed that the cows kept well in the background while the bulls stationed themselves at the edge of the bush and kept a sharp lookout for danger their sense of hearing is so keen that hunters have given up in despair there coloring  the background it takes a sharp eyed hunter to see them before they see him they were getting suspicious it would be a mistake to think they were running away from you and to follow them out into the open country because if you showed it would be a very good time to find out it was suddenly taken ill and we were forced to they didn't expect us back so soon were they having a big time and were they in for a bigger one our biggest worry was to get the elephants across the river with as little sacrifice as possible we told him to take as many men as he needed but they must all volunteer and under no circumstances was he to use men with families the response of the men was gratifying and we realized we were reaping the reward of our kind pick them a treatment which they natives in sympathy crowded around yep was no stranger to their eyes but most of them had grown to like the smiling youngster and his sweetheart be and the captain allie appeared to be breathing his last be in her anguish scream for someone to bring the white master it was clear that nothing short of a miracle could sa charlie clearing the river of the cro  for two events as the crossing could well cost the lives of several of our fate but there was no retreating now everyone in the train knew what to make it was not a job for weekly there was no doubt in any of our mind it was a victory of organizational very individual at the crocodile's been blessed with brains they could easily get overwhelmed by the sheer power of numbers a short rest away from the swamp and our patient had passed the crisis it was decided that she had gained sufficient strength to enable her to hold out until we reached civilization again our biggest worry now as for the recovery of the boy allie injuries we blame directly upon ourselves for having allowed him to join the it has been demonstrated time and again that faith can work miracles in this case it seemed almost incredible but allie was recovering they are a hardy people those that live in the jungles and apparently it takes more than a little most of us a lot to the prayers we have said and many of us we are fortunate to the prayers we have failed to say shall say that this girl simple faith in the power of the supreme being take away life to create or destroy was not the moving back of the brought her love many weary days later we trundled our way over hills and valleys dodge the more strenuous country and at last found ourselves within a few miles of the little billet from which we had started but changed little band we were we had started out carefree and in different we returned somewhat drawn and gray around the temple we had penetrated to the sacred heart of one of the most forgiving jungles in the world we had bought land with leopards panthers tigers and pythons mingled with
