MYSTERIOUS AFRICAN LAKE

Lieutenant Graetz, a German Off
Ger is making his way across the At
rican continent from the Indian
ocean to the Atlantic in motor boat,
his chief object being the exploration
of the mysterious Bangweolo lake,
which discharges into the Zambesi riy-
or.
This sheet of water, except at the
point where the Zambesi river leaves
it, is surrounded with miles of reeds,
and no white man has ever sailed it's
surface. The natives tell curious tales
of what is TO be found within its
swampy enclosures. On the islands
which, they aver, stud the lake, are
to be found colossal elephants and tall
giraffes, while in the waters sea-ser-
penis and other strange and terri
BILE creatures are concealed. From the
surface of the lake itself declare the
natives, hot springs sprout into the
air, and pestilentiai winds sweeping
across the marshes carry death and
destruction TO all living things.
Of the few natives who have ever
ventured out upon the Bal gweolo lake
in their small frail canoes, none have
ever returned to tell the tale of their
adventures. Lieutenant GraetZ thinks
that unknown species of animal and
marine life may possibly exist in this
hitherto UNEMPLOYED region. and it is
to test this supposition that he has
started out in a thirty-foot boat fitted
with a five horsepower petrol motor
to cross the African continent.
