Bob couldn't go to his left for a grounder. and maybe
he looked a little bad at times. But the players knew

The Zulus are esteemed an es-
sentially moral and truthful race,
which explains why divorce is
not easy among them, adultery
being the sole ground for dissolu-
ton of marriage. White educators
with long experience among the
Zulus explained, however, that
adultery is by no means generally
looked upon as an unforgiveable
sin, and that the woman, though
she may have been the inciter, Is
almost always considered the in
jured person. In earlier times a
cuckold revenged himself upon
the defiler of his home by spear
ing him. Softer influences. have
reduced the number of retribu-
tive homicides in favor of the
more practical and profitable set
Element. More than few az
grieved husbands have been mol
lifted by payment of sufficient
head of cattle.
The Zulus are friendly, hunaor-
ous, proud and stout-hearted. The
males-inheritors of battle tradi-
tions-are imposing figures in
their karosses- and bearing OK

family saw them. The wopfett -,

Much of the Zulu life and tenn

bal arts, especially Woodworking,
| which may lack a sense of per
spective but not of proportion,
and is reminiscent of Egyptian
craftsmanship. Here there is
tendency, due to contact with the
white mans schools, to fall i'm
der the spell of formal European
techniques, but most of the in
structors try to discourage influ-
ences which would produce only
another hybrid art.
