WORDS FROM
THE LIPS OF
WISE MEN

Owe is without prudence and
anger without counsel.
Rash presumption is a ladder
which will break the mounter's
neck.
The greatest slanderers are the
most impatient of censure.
Sloth wears out the body and
consumes the mind.
'Tis better to be lowly born and
range with humble lovers in con-
tent than wear a golden sorrow.
What is a man profited if he
shall gain the whole world and
lose his own soul?-Bible.
A man learns to kno whis COM
panion in long journey or a little
inn.
Every man is to be envied who
is fortunate with his children.
Some people would rather guess
a little.
He is twice a conqueror who
conquers himself in the moment of
victory.
1t is not we'll to have an open
door and a locked-up countenance.
The chief fault Of man is that he
has so many small failings.
Observation is the most endur-
ing of the pleasures of life.
Tost time is never found again,
and what we call time enough al
ways proves little enough.
Ill fares the land to Fastening Ills
Where wealth accumulates and
men decay. -Goldsmlth.
The lapse to Incidence is soft
and imperceptible, but the return
to diligence is difficult.
A clever man turns great
troubles into little ones and little
ones into none at all.
Avarice and fidelity cannot
dwell together in the same house.
1t is a poor heart in which hope
cannot find something to feed
upon.

IF a native Kirdi-Adassa should
come to our country and see
row after row Of houses of
exactly the same design or go
into some towns and see hun
dreds Of houses built from prac-
tically the same plans, he would
be greatly surprised.
For in the country from which
be comes, on the west coast OF
Africa, no two houses are apt to
be alike.
They are very primitive houses,
built Of a material much like the
Mexican adobe.
The first structure is erected by
using long, slender poles which
meet in the center at the top.
Then q thick clay is made.
This is plastered over the frame
work and dries out very hard in
the sun.
Windows are not considered
necessary in this country. One
door and the chimney are the
only means OF ventilation. The
house is always arranged SO that
it faces the direction from which
the prevailing winds blow.
At the very top of the NUT is
the chimney. With the door and
the chimney, the ventilation is
good. The thick mud walls keep
out the sun, and it is surprising
how cool these little houses are.
during the very hottest summer
months.
The traveller will be interested
in the various designs executed
on the outside wall of the homes
Of Kirdi-Massa.
The most intricate patterns
ornament these houses. The pat
terms are made by a trowel and
worked in before the mud dries.
No two houses are adorned
with the same design. Because
each family takes the greatest
pride in its own pattern on its
house.
This private pattern Is like a
coat of arms. 1t Identifies fam
lily. And in a way--a very prac-
teal way-these designs are copy
right. And the copyright law is
hardly, If ever, broken, because
the penalty for any infringement
is severe.
If one man copies the design or
pattern Of another mans house,
he is punished by death.
1t Is unnecessary to add that
the variety of models in house
building in this part of Africa is
wide and extensive.
