more than 100000 inhabitants. of whom
only about per cent are white and
you have Mozambique. IL Portuguese

clety.
Mozambique Is one of the oldest OF
all European possessions. and one Of
the richest in agricultural possibilities.
but Is one Of the least known countries
IN the world. There are five towns
and a small, up-to-date capital city,
with a number of military posts and
outposts. There are no deserts, salt
sinks, swamps or mountainous wastes.
The colony Is altogether inhabited by
about twenty tribes.
Among the curious customs of the
land Is the wearing of rattles by the
girls on their ankles st dances. Hol-
low spheres are made of palm leaf or
grass and are partially filled with large
seeds or pebbles, The noisa of these
ankle rattles is supposed to assist in
keeping time in the dance. Similar or
naments are frequently worn b. the
boys.
The popular music used at a batuque
or ball is that Of the marimba, or huge
