as magical contraptions.
The native witch doctors and
medicine men, who have stuck to
the same rituals and tribal masks
for centuries in conjuring up their
own voodoo have been SO i'm
pressed by the white mans leger.
demain that they have junked
many of their old actices.
What has impressed these
bushmen most are the warplanes
or the "steam-chickens" as
they call them. The aborigines
are at a loss 10 understand how
the great mechanical birds take
off and land in the broad fields
adjoining their villages
It is no wonder then that, in
making tribal headgear for the
weird ceremonial dances. the up
to-the.minute witch doctors cre-
ate the kind Of top-pieces for
themselves that will link them
with the white mans great power
in the eyes OF their followers.
That's why IT is common
sight 10 see the medicine men
parading about with headgear In
the shape Of crude United States
Army or r. A. + planes AS the
two photographs show, the witch
doctors reproduce their model
hats quite faithfully.
Many Of the natives, who have
had contacts with the Germans
and the Italians before the AXIS
was tossed out OF Africa, know
what The war is all about and
this knowledge often plays an I'M
portant role in the pattern Of
their tribal dances.
