Highly effective Is Mr.. Wards fig
ure of the old guide who vigorously
maps out on the sand the course that
the expedition took. He traces the
yindings OF the shadowy river, paus-
ing to make most emphatic the exact
points at which the clashes occurred
with ancestral tribal foes, where the
Gozing hippopotamus overturned the
boats or where the choicest tuSkS
were obtained.
Of equal interest is the figure OF
the patient river dweller who Is
crouched down while he whlrls rap
idly between his outspread palms the
dry stick that is soon to furnish MN
With the much needed fire. The hg..
ure speaks of sinewy strength and
endurance; the face has assumed the
expression of what may be termed
scientific expectancy.
The figure of the Idol Maker shows
the skill of the sculptor in portraylng
concentrated attention. The worker
is seated on a ledge Of rock and every
muscle is strained to the task in hand
that of shaping a typical idol from
a block of wood that is held in posi-
ton by the carver's right leg, which
is thrown over it. Both hands direct
the primitive tool that is shaping the
body.
It is easy to imagine the reply OF
the carver when asked by some loaf

ing African jungle life to which he
gave the most active years OF his
young manhood. He has happily
chosen subjects that give accurate
glimpses of the jewellers in the hot
lands along the sultry Congo. These
figures seem to be waiting for the
command of the sculptor to whirl
the stick, to trace the winding river,
&c carve the idol, to flee into the
depths of the jungle rather than to
be carried off by the Arabian slavers.
