title: Typical Political Gathering, China, ca. 1905-1914

description: Tinted lantern slide capturing a political meeting in a building courtyard in early twentieth century China. Both women and men appear in the courtyard. Some groups carry banners featuring the Chinese character for 'woman / women' (nu), suggesting that this was either a meeting focusing upon further emancipation of women in China or was a pro-revolutionary women's party. Men wear white arm bands, whilst two figures in the foreground are wearing white flowers, which could possibly be a symbol of mourning. The group may have been linked with the Revolutionary Alliance (Tongmenhui), a secret society with the aim of overthrowing the Qing. The further independence of women within social and family spheres was seen as a key sign of more Western style political progress for Chinese reformers. Some women resisted the binding of their feet, and men pledged to only marry women with the 'large feet' that had previously seen as unattractive, for example. The slide was developed by the Photo Department, Tientsin Hui Wen Academy, Tientsin, China.

title: Women and Children Outside Brick Building, Malawi, ca. 1914-1918

description: Black and white lantern slide showing women and children sitting and standing outside a brick building with a corrugated iron roof. One man sits on the porch of the building.

The European men are flanked by two standing Nyasaland men, who may be lower ranking soldiers or staff. One man wears a wrap around his waist with a light shirt and dark cap, whilst a taller man leans against the wall of a hut in a darker shirt and wrap around his waist. The European officer has appeared in a number of slides in the set. His European companion may be a fellow military man, or a missionary.

title: Nyasaland Times Cutting, Malawi, ca. 1917

description: Black and white lantern slide featuring an image of a cutting from the Nyasaland Times of September 1917, featuring a call to mission educated boys to join the King's African Rifles as salaried Signallers. Signallers are specialist soldiers responsible for military communications. In addition, boys would receive training as a general soldier, or askari (word for a local African soldier, based on the Arabic word for 'soldier'). An advertisement for interpreters of the Chinyanja (Chichewa) language (spoken by people of the large Chewa ethnicity) and the language of the Awemba (Bemba) peoples is also included. The advertisement is under the name of Lieutenant Colonel I H Soames, Chief Recruiting Officer of the King's African Rifles. This slide comes from a set on the activities of the King’s African Rifles battalions in Nyasaland. It was originally held by the Church of Scotland, and generated by J.W MacKay.

title: Coolies Carrying Wounded Rebels to the Rear, China 1911

description: Black and white lantern slide featuring a wounded soldier being carried away on a stretcher suspended from a wooden pole by two 'coolies', a term applied to slave and manual workers across Asia in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A man possibly of Western origin stands over the injured rebel - since the man is wearing an armband, it is possible that he is a doctor, perhaps from the London Missionary Society hospital in which Charles Somerville served. The picture was most probably taken at the time of the Battle of Yangxia, from October to December 1911, in which rebels fought against Qing troops for control of China and the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty. The battle was mainly fought around Hankou and Hanyang - these cities (along with Wuchang where Somerville was based) formed the city of Wuhan. Although the rebels were to be defeated by Qing troops, the fighting ignited rebellions across China and in December 1911 the Qing commander Yuan Shikai agreed to the ceasefire that was to initiate foundation of the Republic of China on 01 January 1912 and the abdication of the infant Emperor, Puyi. This slide comes from a collection held by the Church of Scotland and generated by the medical missionary Charles Somerville, who worked for the London Missionary Society in Hankou from 1904 to 1914.

title: Group of Boys, Malawi, ca. 1914-1918

description: Black and white lantern slide showing a group of seven boys of various ages. The boys wear wraps around their waists, with a shirt or with a bare chest. One boy holds his nose, and another younger boy holds a hoop and a stick with which to propel it along. The boys stand in front of a table.

description: Black and white lantern slide showing a group of six men and boys on a path next to a river. A rolled up reed mat lies in the path, which one of the men sits next to. Equipment can be seen (a bedroll) laid down further up the path. One man wears a dark pill-box hat. One man with his back to the camera appears to have a tool placed down the cloth wrap that is tied around his waist, which may be a chisel or a knife. It is possible that these men and boys are part of the Carrier Corps in the King's African Rifles. This slide comes from a set on the activities of the King’s African Rifles battalions in Nyasaland.

title: Carrier Corps, Malawi, ca. 1914-1918

description: Black and white lantern slide showing a train of African soldiers from the King's African Rifles. Some men are in uniform, others wear wraps around their waists and go bare chested or wear simple shirts. These less formally dressed men probably make up the Carrier Corp (locally known as "Tenga-tenga", which means "carry carry" or "take take") who carried equipment and supplies for the campaigns of the King's African Rifles. The men carry boxes and baskets, and items suspended from shoulder poles. A pith helmet marking out a European officer can be seen to the side of the picture. The Carrier Corps, an enlisted military support regiment, suffered some of the highest casualties in the First World War in East Africa and endured considerable suffering. Such forced involvement in a foreign war raised the political consciousness of many men treated in this way.

The "Ammunition" is drawn as a "piece of broken gourd, with bamboo stem", and the "target" as a "piece of an Indian corn on the cob." The game of nsikwa is a competitive one that aids mental agility, in which the circular ammunition is spun with the intention of hitting the opponent's target.

Two other European officers pose behind the rickshaw, although one wears a military hat instead of a pith helmet. An African man stands at the front of the garetta holding its shafts. He wears a dark shirt and shorts and the dark fez of the Nyasaland native troops of the King's African Rifles. Two other men stand behind the garetta in similar attire. On account of the poor state of roads and tracks in Nyasaland, rickshaws and garettas were the main form of wheeled traffic at this time.
