THE FUZZY WUZZIES

16E FUZZY WUAAIES
 One rainy night in New Guinea, the second largest island in the world, 8 Papuan heard an airplane. He ran out of his hut and found the motors missing badly. Then there was an explosion and the plane crashed. The native got other men and took a canoe out to get the two aviators. The first thing they asked was if they were going to kill them, but they said no.
 They asked theun if there were any Japs around but the answer was no. The natives then took them to a church mission where they were given good care. The natives had been made Christians by our Ameri- e4n missionaries. The next morning two Papuans crossed the mountains to Milne Bay, where the Japs had suffered their first defeat on land. The two Papuans came back with a doctor. Later that day a plane came and landed off shore to pick up the crashed fliers. These Fuzzy Wuz- Zies are descendants of head-hunt- CTS and cannibals, and they are friends to the soldiers in time of trouble. Because they know the lay of the land and the roads in Papua, which is the English part of New Guinea, they have been a great help to the Allies.
 The Papuans were very much surprised by the war. They had be- come rather civilized and one very expressive Papan said You white people have lovely things and then you go to war and smash them up. l think you are very foolish"
 Even though they thought it was foolish they sided in with the AL lies instead of with the Japs. They are very valuable because they know the mountain passages, drugs for jungle diseases, and the secrets .ot the jungle. They helped the AL lies to carry ammunition, stores and the wounded soldiers through the Jungles and over the Owen Stanley Mountains. They helped without thought of pay and with much laughter and jest One native, aged nine, beat al Allied soldier playing cne~kers. The minister at the Mis- sion for the Fuzzy Wuzzies received a telegram from General MacArthur thanking him for help given to the Allies.
