Hospitality In conuoland Carried 70
Extremes-Men In That Country

A stranger going through CsngOland
is at liberty to stop at any hut and
spend the night or remain rs long as
he feels inclined. This is expected. and
no conversation Is even required to ne
gotiate the arrangements.
But ii the stranger is tired. he Is
''Out of luck" because hospitality in
COngoland Is expressed In strange
fashion. To give their guests IA real
welcome the host and hostess gather
all OF their nelghbors and friends
around their home and plan for the
evenings entertainment. They dance
for him. and ape so anxious 10 give him
pleasant visit that they keep the
dance up all night. lie is expected to
appreciate II and, naturally, should not
show any signs Of fatigue.
After sleepless night he is sur
prised to find his hostess out In the
fields, bright and early. with her
cigar in her mouth-because In Congo
land only the women smoke; the men
prefer 10 take snuff. They consider
smoking effeminate.
The women not only do all the
heavy work in the fields but sell the
produce as well. The men take over
the domestic duties. II is no strange
sight To see the man OF the house en-
gagged In doing the family washing. and
then hanging the clothes out to dry on
the branches Of the trees around his
home.
After he has his Mondays work"
out of the way he takes his sewing
basket and sits down In the shade and
does the family mending, and does 1t
