The girls in Africa. rs elsewhere, are
,ona of dolls; but they like them best

purpose, and carry them about tied to
heir backs, as their mothers carry
babies. Some of them "play baby"
with little pigs. The boys play shoot
with gun made to initiate the "white

iogether make the barrels, the stock Is
made Of clay, and the smoke is made OF
tuft of loose cotton. In one African
tribe the boys have spears made OF
reeds, shields and bows and arrows,
with which they initiate their fathers
ioings; and they make animals out of
clay, while their sisters Jump the

like children all over the world, enjoy
themselves "making believe" They
