SAVAGE CHILD IS TRAINED

Most of those who know little of savage and semi savage peoples nat urally suppose that the children are allowed to run wild with no thought given to their training. This is far from the truth, particularly among some of the tribes of Togoland, on the African west coast.
 As soon as a girl baby Is able to toodle-and they are taught to walk much earlier than our children-the | training of the girl Is begun. She is given a calabash and taught to bal anee it upon her head Then the ca1abash Is filled with water. Thus she learns her first duty in useful l ness.
 From this time forth the child be- comes a part of the tribal or village organization. Slre goes with her | mother to the river when the women go there for water. She is taught to | sweep out the hut with broom. Out | in the forest she goes with mother l and there learns what herbs and wild
 vegetables are good for food and
 which should be avoided At home
 she is taught how to prepare the food
 the family eats. In a word, from her
 very earliest days the child is taught
 how to perform the domestic and
 other duties the average native wo- man must perform.-Temple Man. ming in the Cleveland Plain Dealer. -o-
