this: polite natives will neither sit
unlimited in the presence of their SUI
periors nor watch them while eating"
Sitting in visitors lap for a few
moments is a mode of welcome"
Among native Africans, in the case
of a man and his wife, even if they
fight together, her father or her
brother does not interfere" There
will be the description of the build
ing of a town such as this: And all
busy. They that worked at stakes,
went out to cut saplings; those that
made rattan-ropes, went to cut the
rattan vines; they that shaped the
bamboo for building, went to cut the
bamboo-palms they that made the
thatch went to gather the palm-leaves;
they that set up the stakes of the
houseframe, went to thrust them into
the ground; they who fastened the
walls, fastened them; they who tied
thatch on the roof, tied it; they who
split the rattan-vines for tying, split
them. The town was full of noise"
We often hear of two drums, the
common drum and the elembi, drum
made to transmit information by a
system OF signal strokes. Thus in
formation travelled through Africa
with extraordinary rapidity.
In his preface, the author tells US
how these tales are told There are
only a few skilled narrators, but
these few are like great actors, and
just as a play will run with us for
hundreds of nights, the same people
going to see it again and again, so
the tales will be retold endlessly,
made attractive by the dramatic use
of gesture, tone and startling exclama-
ton.

renditions are nights, after the days
works are done, especially if there be
visitors to be entertained. The places

GIANTS LOSE TO REGULARS
IN SUNDAYS BALL GAME

The invincible Western Giants went
down to defeat before the mighty on
slaught of the Phoenix Regulars
Sunday in Riverside 1t was an off
day for the Giants, and somehow, they
could not connect with the pill eff
fectively. The final score was 10 to
8 in favor of the Regulars and the
winners did not play their half of the
ninth inning.
Sunday, July %, the Giants will
meet the strong team from Mesa in
Riverside Park. Several defeats have
been suffered by the Giants from this
team, and on Sunday they are going
into the game for revenge You can't

Where Animals Talk"
By R. H. Nassau. Published by
The Four Seas Co., Boston, Mass.
Price $500 Postage 10 cents.
To those who are interested in
African Lore this volume will be CT
great value. 1t is a collection of West
African Folk Lore tales translated
from the native idiom The tales are
from the Mpongwe, Benga and Fang
tribes. Many of them seem vaguely
familiar as they tell of the Leopard
and the Rat, the Tortoise and other
animals. But there are stories that
do not recall Brer Rabbit, Bear or
Fox; stories like an Arabian Night.
A son goes away from his native town
to get wife. He shows kindliness to
all he meets, thus gaining the good
will of the animals, and is presented
with a magic gourd not unlike AL
ladin's lamp. BY means OF the gourd
he turns a forest into a garden in an
hour, dams a river and furnishes fish
for a month, and fights and conquers
multitudes of his opponents His
prowess wins him the hand of the
princess-only it is not put exactly
that way-and he carries away his
beautiful wife. His foolish brother,
striving to emulate him, fails to show
kindness or wisdom and gets an ugly,
diseased woman as his mate The ad-
venture is delightful, an Arabian night
in a new setting.
But what is most interesting in the
book is the side light that it casts on
West African custom. To explain the
tales we have short notes such as

chosen are the open street, or in for
est camps where almost all the popu-
lation of village go for a weeks
work on their cutting of new planta-
tions; or for hunting or for fishing
in ponds. At night all gather around
the camp fire and the Tales are told,
with, at intervals, accompaniment of
drum; and parts of the plot are illus
trated, by an appropriate song. or by
short dance, the platform being
only the earth, and the scenery the
forest shadows, and the moon or
stars
1t is this recital and this setting
that we miss as we read these stories
and we realize that we are getting
about as much of what the listener in
the African forest sees and hears, as
we get of an opera by reading the Ii
bretto. When will the time come
when we shall hear these tales on
the stage with their real setting" We
