Hill Folks Of Nigeria.

AAdt Otno "
"HERE are many races and
tribes OF people living on the
continent OF Africa. From
north 70 south and from last to west
they differ almost u~nbeliev15ly.
Even within the same political divi-
sion there may be found several
tribes.
We are going 20 visit West Africa
today and see one OF the races Of
blacks who make their home In Nj
geria- We r gong 10 visit the hill
folks who are known by the name OF
Pagans. There are many tribes OF
Pagans and they all differ in slight
characteristics, as did the various
tribes OF North American Indians.
Nevertheless. they have a good many
traits in common, SO / shall refer 10
them merely as the Pasans OF Nj
geria.
In the first place the Pagans are
hill people. They differ vastly from
those blacks who live IN the lower
lands. in the cities.
As one pushes int the hills OF
Nigeria. progresses slowly up the
mountains. one comes across the vii
lagos OF the Pagans. They are small
clearings-no nor than small clear
ings would be possible in this coun-
try-surrounded by stone walls and
set like terraces up the slope. Above
these terrace farms will be found a
circle Of huts where the tribespeople
live. Even in these days OF compar-
alive safety from invasion the huts
are built with al the doors facing
the circle.
The living huts OF the Pagans. as
well as the storage huts. where corn
and other products OF the Pagan
farms are kept. r built Of mud
with straw matching for roofs. Ere
duently these huts IRE built on a
foundation OF rock. for the hill coun-
try OF Nigeria is rough.
The Pagans II the real natives
of the country and stl maintain and
follow many or the old superstiaons
and customs. Neither men nor
wognen care much about clothes.
However, the blacks who live In the
lowlands have adopted OF the
civilization OF the west. and gradually
they are intoxicating thess ideas into
the minds OF the hill tribes.
