VOLLEY BALL is
FEATURE At Villas

terest at the Villas school and boys
and girls teams are being organized.
The boys team is still in the making,
but the girls team will consist OF
Mary Wilson, Lillian Corcoran, Frieda
Lasken, Friedricka Kipp, Mary Mer-
riu, Jane March, Helen Beisswenger,
Grace Foster, Esther Enriquez, Ruth
Foster. Zelma Carter, Bernita Harris,
and ViDeta Lindauer.
Volley ball is being very much
booster by Miss Margaret Kinnon,
the physical director. As a school
game volley ball is especially adapted
because any number of children can
play at a time. The game gives the
children splendid exercises, while be-
ing absolutely devoid of any "scrappy''
features that give other games an
element OF danger. Another thing in
its favor is that it can be played by
the small children, as well as by the
larger pupils.

Pygmies of Dutch New Guinea.

For several months, says Captain
c. G. Rawling in the June Wide
Wide World Magazine, all attempts
to discover the village of the pygmy
people failed, until one day a col
lecting party Unexpectedly came
across their habitations, 1900 feet
up the mountain side. The pygmies
poured in from all directions, but,
though suspicious, ever handling
their bows and arrows and always
on the alert, they never attempted
hostilities. Their houses were very
superior to those owned by the
plainsmen, which were built on the
ground with rough timber, sticks and
| leaves, while the small men con-
structed their dwellings on piles,
raised eight. to ten feet above the
earth. In addition, the interiors
were lined with strips of bark, af-
fording more or less effectual pro-
lection against the wind and rain.
The pygmies' powers of enumera-
tion also raised them considerably
above the mental level of the plains
men, who only possessed words to
denote the first two numerals, while
the little men could count up to ten.
The average height of the coast peo-
pie was rather over five feet six and
half inches, the new tribe of hill
men being only four feet eight and a
half inches Generally speaking.
they were excellently proportioned
agile, wiry and eminently suited to
the densely covered mountain coun-
try in which they dwell. In color
they varied little, being what may
be termed chocolate hue, slightly
fairer than the dwellers on the
plains.
All were extremely dirty, the only
clean parts being where their bodies
had rubbed against the foliage in
their attempts to force way through
the dense jungle. There was also
some difference to be observed in
the small amount of clothing adopt
ed. All carried large string bags
over one shoulder, in which were
placed their limited stock of earthly
possessions, while round the neck,
and more rarely as a form of head
dress, were suspended strings of
wallaby teeth or the shoulder blades
of the same animal.
Though we visited the pygmy viii
lage on three occasions expressly
with the purpose of seeing the wom-
en-, we were unable to attain our OBJ
ject, in spite of the heaviest bribes.
Though we offered one ak for each
woman, this most tempting offer be-
ing finally doubled, they persisted in
keeping the ladies in strict seclusion,
so that l am unable to describe what
they look like.
This curious race is believed to be
at least as ancient as the Andaman
islanders, and one of the oldest, il
not the very oldest, inhabiting the
globe.
