Abyssinians Want British Officers

--Men Who Captured

Dukana A REGIMENT of Ethiopian.

(Africans) formed in Ken ya has been d~lDg extremely good work against the Italians in AbYI:I­sinia. It consisted mostly of black men who had been driven by the Italians out of Abyeainia, and de· prived of their cat tile aod lands

They began badly. After four weeks the black battahon, faced superior forces, lost several killed and wounded and etraggled back into Kenya muoh discouraged.

Tbey were presented by an Eng. Iish woman with t.he E thiopian Imperial 8ag, and after further t.ralning, tbey marched 8gain into Abyesinia from the Sudan. After many sufferings, owing to iack of food, they reached the small Italian post of Shata tbhai, where they found tbree cows and 30 sheep. They ate these, for their huoger was great.

They carried on to Kwoilu, and when nearby were bombed by an Italian plane. Too exhausted to attack tbe enemy, the bat.talion deoided to return to Kenya_ Many bad to be carried by t.heir comrade8. After a month of terrible ha.rdsbip they were found and were brought in by the KiDg 'e African Rilles.

Their leader, Chief Tadama Zalaka aaid. "We won't go back agalo by ourselveB, We Want Britlah Officers, Bnd we must have lorries and camela.'

Legal Aid For African Poor Sharp Growth Of

The Work ---

MISS RUTH HAYMAN. recently 4" gave an interest 109 talk with. regard totthe work of the Johannes. burg Legal Aid Burt'au whicb abe controls, aDd which is under the dirt'ction of the Race Relations Institute.

Tbifl is to help African prisoners who are too poor to pay for their own defence in tbe courts.

Sinoe the civil section of the work had started, the bureau had handled 1038 c1aima.

Miss Bayman pointed out that> the bureau ha.d been establiflhed to give free legal help to poor people of all racee. Tbe.re was a means test, however, whioh wa.s designed tp ensure t.hat veoplb who could, in the ordinary way, pay for the eervices of attorneys, did not take advantage of the faoilities offbred by the bureau.

The object of the bureau was not to encourage litigation and It there* fore endeavoured to sottle out of court the legitimate olaims of Africans and other poor people.

The greatest num ber of olaims arose from diffiouJties uDder the Pass Laws and Urban Areas Acts, Workmen's Compe08ation Act, relations between landlords and tenants, wages and notice, matri. monial diffioulties and bire pur­ohase contraots.

BE LOYAL AND STEADFAST TO

KING AND COUNTRY

ALL over the world to­day, capital (that is,

money) is being destroyed. The facts that ships which cost anything from £80,000 each upward are being snnk, and the money they represent is being lost to the world, must be remembered I by all Africans as one of the grim effects of the war.

Britain recently has been considering that it may even be necessary soon to reduce the personal money spent by its people in Britain to 25. - week­ly per man : in other words, to £5 per month.

Even in America many people are living to-day, on the bread line, with just enough to eat and no more. The richest nations of the world are suffering as the re­sult of the war policies of men like Hitler, that black hearted German upstart; Mussolini, the treacherous Ita­lian who tried to stab France in the back last year. but who is now being unmercifully flogged in Africa by the Brit­ish and is losing all his stolen Empire in Africa; and now Matsuoka, the Japanese rob­ber, who wants to steal the lands and possessions of China, and the oil wealth of the Dutch East Indies.

Thus we see the great rob­bers of our day are despoiling the people and filling the earth with poverty and misery.

The "Race Relation News" has just published some in­teresting comment on the re­sults of a socia l survey- the first of its kind ever held.in Africa.

This survey, conducted by the Department of Social Science at the Cape Town University and directed by Professor E. Batson, revealed an incidence of poverty start­ling even to' the investigators, familiar as they were with Cape Town conditions ..

The survey covered the whole of the Cape Town mlmicipal area and was based on 1,926 "random samples," representing about one in every thirty families of the population,

A " poverty line t' was deter­

mined by calculating the minimum income on which a household could maintain de­cency and physical efficiency, barring illness and other ex-

• Ine m traordinary expenditure and assuming that the income was spent with a maximum of wisdom. Seven shillings and sixpence was calculated to be the minimum weekly amount needed to give an adult man sufficient food to maintain health. The minimum for clothing (including boot and shoe repairs) necessary for health and decency, assuming the most economi',al buying, was allowed at I s. lOd. per week. For women and child­ren these amounts were pro­portionately adj usted, Per­sonal and household cleani~ was allowed at 2d. per h

uanee o overnment spare time in assisting the effort. 'lhe Af.rican~ had expressed a witb to do 80mething for tbe war, some. thiog to belp the Government and tbose who were 6gbi.iug for tbeir liberty. and ours, And tbe J ob An· nesburg Women8 War Fund Asao. ciation are proud to have sponsor_ ed this effort on their bebalf.

PI'IIL1e From The Mayor .. On anum ber of occasions I

have attended the present.ation of ambuJ&noea," said the Mayor, "but none of tbem bas given me greater pl~8sure than this. One must be particularly gratified at this effort­of the Africans when one considers that the donations for the purchase of the ambulance c.me from the .man and meagre earnings of those people. On behalf of the City Council I am delighted to e:l:preee our Bense of appreciation to them for this loyal action on their part."

Mr. Selope Tbema, presented the the ambulance to Lieut. Colooel G. E. PeaCOCk, Commissioner of the St. John Ambulance Brigade of the TraIl8vaal, who then present. ed it to Colonel J. Pratt.John&on Deputy. Director of Medical Ser~ vice of the Witwatersrand, as the representative of the Union Defence Forces.

Splendid Sy I Of Loyalty MRS. JOSEPHINE KERNlCK, M.B.E. 00 bebalC of the Johaooesburg

Womeo's War Fond Asaociatioo which abe foooded 00 tbe out· break of war, .poke nry feelingly last Saturday at the imprelsin cere. mony oUliide tbe City Hall io.-ol.-iog tbe preuotatioD of aD ambol. ao('e .ub.cribed for by Afriuoa of Jobaooesburg, to tbe Goverameot of the country. A large gathering at whicb mBny importaot people were present aaumbled to hear tbe addrelSe. and watch tbe ceremony.

Yet, despite a rigid calcula­tion of the poverty I ine, the survey showed that 28 per cent., over one quarter of the total population, lives below this poverty line. In Europ­ean towns similar social sur­veys revealed that it is normal to have between ten and fif­teen per cent. living below this purely subsistence level. In Cape Town 6 per cent. of the European families, 20 per cent. of the Asiatic families, 48 per cent. of the African families and 52 per cent. of the Coloured families live be­low the poverty line. That is: one out of every twenty European families, one out of every five Asiatic families and one out of every two Nat­ive or Coloured families lives at a level which cannot main­tain decency or physical effi-

Gathering Of Well Wishers Of Africans

"We have not taken advanta&. of the preaen' world crisis in whicb the Europeans find themselves io order to attempt to liberat8 our. selves," remarked Mr. Themain pre--8eD~iog the ambulance. "We firmly beheve that by co·operation we cao do a great deal to further the pro­gress and development of South Africa and make this a greater country thaD it is to.day."

• Clency. When it is considered that

those bad men Hitler and Mussolini have already wasted the world's wealth to t he ex­tent of something like many millions by the terrible war which they forced on the world, which indeed is mak­ing us all poorer, we cannot but marvel at the queer out­look of many Europeans who follow i\fr, Pirow (himself of German origin), and the Os­sewa Brandwag, the members of which are all on t he side of the enemy, These men, ap­parently, do not understand the great issues at stake,

We feel that our people, the Africans, know well who are their friends, and that Britain, fighting for freedom and the underdog, will stand by them until the victory is won,

Mean while, the war has mede everybody poorer, Americans, Britons, South Africans alike.

We must bear our burdens proudly and courageously and must remain resolutely loyal to Government and King.

THERE was a big assembly of Africans and the band of the

W.N.L .A., by courtesy of the Cham­ber of Mines, enlivened the proceed· ings with a fine programme of musio, under the baton of Captain E. Vinc8nt Barwood, R.M.S.M.

Among those present were the Mayor and Mayoress of Johannes. burg, Mr. and Mrs. Hector Gray ; Mr. H . Wellbeloved, Manager of the Native Labour Organisations of tbe Chamber of Mines, Mrs. J Kernick, assistant vice·chairman of the Association ; Mrs. T. Shearer, Mrs . H . Jager (the three COnveners of t.he ambulance scheme), Mrs. F. Nealon, treasurer of tbe Associa· tion ; Mrs. !. Katz, Secretary of the AS80oiation, and Mrs. I . Mason Gordon, vice·chairman of the Asso· ciation.

Others present were Mr. A. H . Aodreason. Mr. and Mrs. David Murray, Mrs . Stubbs, Mr. and Mrs. Warwick Smith, Mr. and Mrs . Mulcaby, Mr. and Mrs. G. Baijeoden, Mr. and Mrs. Cullen, and Mrs. H . Saunders.

A guard of bonour, wbich was io ­spected by tbe Mayor, Mr. T. P. Gray, M.P .C_, was provided by the Orlando, Western aad Eastern ano Wemmer Ambulaoce Division of the St. John Ambulance Brigade.

Mrs. Keroick said : "I feel r can justly use t.he term

unique r egardiog the presentation of this ambulance. There have been many ambulances presented to the government by private indio viduals and by various a<lsociations, but tbis ambulance is different from all otbers, as it is t he expression of the loyalty of thousands of Africans.

Tbe money with which tbis gift to the governmeob was pur· chased was contributed by thou· sands of Africans who proudly and loyally gave their sixpences to· wards it.

A &&My First Gorilla"'

(BY PA.UL DU ('JUILl.

O NE day we went outall together for a gorllla.huot. Tbe country

hereabouts is very rougb, hilly and dt'Dsely crowded consequently, bunting is scarcely to be couoted !lport.. But a couple of days of r~t had refreshed me, and I was aoxious to be in at the death of a gorilla.

We saw several Ilorilla track., and about nOOD divided our party, in the hope of surrounding the resting· place of ODe of the~e gigantic bpes whose tracks were ' -ery plaia. I had SCa rce got away from my party three bundred yards "ben 1 heard a repore of a guo, tben of three more, going off one after the other. Of course I ran back a3 fsst as I could. and hoped to see a dead animal before me, but was once more disappOinted. My Mbondemo fel10wll had fired at. a female, a Dd wounded b .. r, as I S8W by the blood whicb marked her track, but sbe bad made good ber t'scape. We set out. at once in pursuit. but thelle woodll are so thiCk, so almost impeoptrable. I hat. pursuIt. of a wou nded aoiwal IS

We sbot 80me monkeys and blrd3, built our camp, and, while the men roasted tbeir monkey· meat over tbe c:>6ls, I held my \mds before the blaze on a st ick . Fort uoately we hod food eoo ugb , and of a good kind ne:tt day .

We started ear ly, and pU!lhed for the most deose a nd impenetrable par t of the forest , 10 hopes t o find the very home of the beas t. I so much wished to ehoot.

~---------------------------* THE WAYS OF UFE

The Editor, uUmtete1i,H

MR. J AMES J AY PEMBER,

writes: Sir,-I 'V i 6 w with grave miBgivings the future of mankind. To me, the world eyl!ltem of life 8eems to be 10 need of 8. total revolutioo, or let me 8ay a oeW Fooial order. based 00 Christian lin ...

I view with contempt the people who, realizing the fatal re8ult8 of evil-doing, through praotical and cruel experiences, keep plodding on, beedlesely, the path of evu aod des­truction . aod I again view with sympathy, those aotiog likewise, but ignorant or unwary of their destinies. These people are a danger and So nuisance to society, and cao do DO good for them.elves eitber.

I am DO saint, but I view with displeasure aU things pertaining to evil. I bate the idea that a man or woman should do evil, for the sole means of satisfying his or her selfish ambitions, with detrimental effects on his innocent fellow beings. Individualism or selfishness i.s an age old practice of humanity, by which men preserved their recog: nition among their fellow·being~, but it IS hateful and un-Christian to those who suffer through its execution.

I am & poor man, but am still struggling, by honest meanS, to realize my dreams in life ; Rlready I view with pride and contentment my past achievements. I do as much right as it is bumanly pos­sible, not because I expect the reward of "Heaven" wben I die, or that I was afra id of "Hell ;" Oh ! no, why should I be afraid of tbings I only hear of (from people who never sa w them).

People have eyes, but they can­not see; they have ears, but cannot bear ' they have minds but will not think. The world is sufferiog phy­sically, menta}ly, moraUy and spiritually. Yesterday, the world was young ; everythi.ng was young , 88 a result people were not capable of e:s:presding tLeir emotions to such a degree as in this modern "World.

To-day, we have means and ways of expreesing our emotions, good and eVil, wit h the aid of literature, science and propaganda ; i.. it a wonder then, that the world is in such a critical condition ? To-day

. _.

a man can do anything, even the fantastio; why wonder whab may happen to·morrow 1

Whab we need to-day is straight. forwardne88 and the prac tioe of our theories, rigbt through ollr Jhree. People take note of bhe praotioal things in life, then the theoretical. Poople like Lord Nuffield of England, the world philanthropist, and Joe Louis, world champion boxer, are true examples of un­selfishness. 11;1 is not beyond any man to do good to his fellowman ; • bel ping hILnd, IL word of encour­agement, a friendly smile, oan do wonders to the mind of your leas fortunate brother. Those who think of evil, do evil; but bhose who think: good do good. As the evil weed bears evi l seeds, the evil mind breeds evil deeds. Things of evil should be totally discouraged, outlawed and detested by a people of a sane mentality.

FREEDOM: THE IDEAL FOR WHICH WE FIGHT

The Editor, IfOmteteli ."

MR. S HADRACH MOKHUDI, Sophiatown, Johannesburg,

writes Sir , - Not so long ago, G e n e ra I Smuts said ; "Not in mILstery but in service, nDt in Dictatorship bub in freedom , lies the secret of mBn's destiny."

These are simple words, true and honest and genuiD~. They sum up what it is thILt we are fighting thia war for. They constitute the basis for mankind's real new order. For the past seven years politiCians and statesmen, writers aod orators have been telling us whab we are living for, what we shall have to fight for. Theil' aims have sound­ed lazy and uureILI to many, but we believe that the issues are clear -that the thinge South Africa holds dear are not lazy and unreal, but that they e.re fundament&1 iSSU8S, often elementaL iS8ues. They are issues which revolve themseJ­ves into a way of life, our way of Life, and it is this way of living that the Nazis are seeking to des ­troy totally and permanently.

First, and perhaps mas tim­portant, tills is IL wa.r for the land we live in. Let us not delude our­selves into believing that Nazi eyes have not encompassed Sout.h Africa, indeed all AfricIL, in their orbit of world dominlLtioo. We are

There's Pa in front again. He wins because he's roo per cent. fit . Look at that dash! He's drawing away from his opponents. They're beatcn! Beaten by better health . Beaten by a tonic aperient which pours Bile into Pa's intestinal system, keeping his dJgesuve tract free from those poisons caused by lazy bowels.

Blended intO this cleansing is a strong tonic influence which gives hun that Pep, that work and play energy so essential to success.

fighting this war not only to restore freedom to Europe, but also to maintain the politioal shape of the African Continent. We are fighting to keep South Afrioa for ourselves so tha.t we can go on living in t;he TransvaILl, the beautiful CILpe, lovely NILtal, aoo the rugged Free State. It is a W",l" for Johannes­burg just as much a8 it i8' wILr for us all . It is a fight for the inde­pendence as IL nation just &8 it iB, a fight for the independence of Stel­lenb08oh, the integrity of Brand­folt!. We are fighting the Nazis so that we can keep on enjoying the righI!, freedom. health and the joy of our Dear AfrioIL.

Long live Britain and her Daughters and Son8!

SOME RULES FOR HAPPY MARRIAGES

The Editor, "Umteteli." MRS. CONSTANCE MA NENTSA,

Lady Grey, C.P., writes . 81r,­Ooe often hears of the misuoder­standing there 1S with modern married couples. Cannot this be remedied so mehow, despite tbe fact tbat many girls about to marry have fixed ideas 8S to how they will manage their husband8, and advioe at t bis time is seldom wel­come or ever taken serioualy.

I think muoh discord can, bow­ever, be avoided if we try to follow the following rules. Though these mILy seem trivial on hasty iospec­tion, t hey will be proved of vital Importance ILfter a Ht.tle practical experience.

Role (1) Try to adapt yourself to his mode of living ; don't brellk bim to your will. If you cbange him you will find the new person less ILttractive than the old. Be careful not to adopt strict met.hods, as thi:J e:s:actnes8 can be most irrita.ting.

(2) Support bim ; .you must be all for him. Remember you s wim or sink together. It is not a bit olever to be too olever for your husband.

(3) Respect himl never allow yourself to belittle him in front of your ohildren or strangers. There is your room to ugue in.

(4) Don't be too independent. Men are funny specimens of humILn­ityand like to feel euperior. Let them as long as they feel it. Re­member you mILde your choice, so it is up to you to make yoar bar­gain. Bnt never leb your husband take you for gra.nted .

(5) Do not be unpleasant If he comes home baving had a few chinlea with his pILls. A man needs men's company sometimes, to keep his manhood ali ve.

(6) AppreciILte him and let him know it, and let your friends know it, too. After aU, every one has good points. Seek his out and dwell upon them. Convince yonrself and bim and the others that he really is rat her remarkable.

(7) Be loyal. Never let other people sway you against him, par­ticularly your rela.tions - or his. Many a wife has been quite satis­fied WIth ber husband until some friend bas inspired her with the idea that she must be more exact­ing. Close your ears to suoh friends, and make them olose their mouths.

(8) Try to cultiva.te IL cheerfal nature. Always remember that you r bome is IL reflection of those in ib. Uee laughter as t;he great home regulator, particularly when things get a bit "edgy."

(9) Take good cILre of your per­sonal appearance. Remember thILt he met, ILdmired a.nd loved you as a neab and trim girl. H e mig\lt feel cheated . This is one of the worst mistakes a wife can make, to lose her looks and her charm, so unne­cessary in these days when every newspaper and magazine tells one how to keep these qua li ties . Perpe­tnal youth aDd exotic beauty are not required, only a se lf.respecting effort to mILke the best of one's self.

(10) Learn to be a good cook. Often a wife's helplessness in dom­estic affairs i" a grelLt drawback to happiness. Even t hough you can­not cook make a aporti ag attempt to overcome the difficulty. How

I disappointing to IL tired aod hun­gry husband when he comes home

to • burnb fare ! I think that the old adage " The way to a mao's heart is through hie stomach" i8 pretty true after all. Your house­keeping rx..ust be absolutely 100%.

( 11) ADd last bub by no meane l8&9t, treat his rei&eio DS with res · pect. For his sake m'l.ke ao effore to get along amiably with them.

PleILse remember that half of the succesa of married life depends on the woman ILod the other half depends on the mILl). Therefore, at any rate some of these rules are applicable to the man .

---BAD JUDG~lENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MORE HEARTACH.E THAN

ANYTHING ELSE The Editor, "Umteteli." MR. BENJAMIN A. NCWANA,

Du.rban, writes : Sir,-I have been attending some meetings and studying speeohes of men. and I feel I must say this to the public. Many pe<lple do not aim to pull forward for the prMent youth. Instead tbey do like fowls ' while goin~ forward they scratch back­ward. I would like to point out this to my fellow-men . They must judge things only, not peo ple. They must judge things properly with knowledge. For things are not what they seem. Nearly every mistake is brought ILbout by want of thought and want of carefulness , we discover that we bave erred because we know no better or else becauee we misjudge. To judge fairly aDd squarely simply means and implies experience. Experience provides us with wisdom, so that we judge according to knowledge of things 8S they are.

Many of my fellowmen judge through ignorance, because they know more they should say les8 and be not harsh . In judg ing thinga mllny opinioos are a C<Lulred; then shall judgments be passed fairly to people rather thILn indulgence in a lot of c riticism.

Perhaps this may he entirely outi of the scheme of our researches. But ill is better that the tradesmen, manufacturer. or literary men be asked about these things, though there are some subjects in whioh all sane people are ILcoomplisbed.

. .. .. .

C '",,"

TLat Is why we may all learn frOID each ot.her.

Judgments ILre princi ples whicb controL our lives, and are oor ba.lanced conolu3ions from contact with the world. We are supposed to have weigbed mILttere and con­cluded that certain tendencies al­wa.ys follow certain estabH"hm'mte. ~f, for instance, ~ man is healtby 10 thought and wholesome io charaoter and develops his powere along right lines, we may conclude that he is honourable and true. Not that judgment is infallible. We make errors because we ma.y be deceived either wilfully or acci­dentally. But on the whole our bILlanced judgments will not play false.

"AFRICANS" OR " NATIVES" The Editor, "Umteteli."

MR. JACOB R. MOHLAMME, RobInson Deep, Johannesburg,

wntes: Sir,-In conneotion with the resolution passed by the Location Advisory Boards Congress urging the Government, municipalitiet and other public bodie.s to use the term "Africans" in the place of "Natives" I think the request quiee unnecessary, beoause "Africans" i, a designation of cont inental applica. tion on1y, and not of aboriginal inheritanCe. h is therefore justi. fiable to class the Bantu as flNati. vee."

There is however. a feeliog amongst! 80me Natives that the word "Natives" implies some in­suLting meaning. If thILt is so. then there is no sense in thinking the word" Africaos" would n'lt. convey the 8a.me meaning if used insulting­ly. All people and every thing in Australia are "Australians." It ill here I cannot understand the argu­ment of our Advisory Board Con­gr ....

I would suggest the term "Bantu" to be the mosll honourable and the only officilLl designation for U8 in Africa. But here again, I remem­ber, our languILge problem " did U8 down," for they sILY it is too much of Zulu inclination. It is here once morel shall die saying the language differences deprive us of res 01 uti ODS

A Talk About Education (BY WILLIAM H. TUTA)

(Tham.ta nga and Sipho meet 'n the early mOtnHng on th.6 road to the vfllage, Both aTe vigorou" young m&n

but without much. experience 01 tM world),

THAMSANGA: Good morning, Sipho, how are you?

SIPHO: Dh. nothing very good or very bad to report. How are you?

THAMSANGA: As fresh as morning d ew. A cur of tea, a plate of mabela, and am fit for anything. I have just come from the school where I have told the teacher he may eXI>.~ct my son tomorrow.

SIPHO; What? You are going to spoil your child with school? In the n ame of our tribe, what is school? I do not Wlsh even to think of it.

THAMSANGA: It is foolish to oppose education in this manner. You do n ot know the benefits to be gotten from it.

SIPHO: I know there is no good in any schooL But go on. What lies are you Raing to tell me ?

THAMSANGA. Well, for one simple thing. Your son is exposed to the h ot sun on the veld, whereas mine is in the shade of school.

SIPHO: My comrade, that is one of the reason why I will not send my child to school. A boy should not be a milk sop. but should endure all rigours of the sun and of the rain.

rnAMSANGA: Do you mean that if there are two roads, and you are bemg p ursued, you would choose the rough road with stones and ruts , instead of the smooth?

SIPHO: Your argument is bad. I am not being _ pursued.

THAMSANGA : At any rate, you are in the dark. Why should you waste time in hard toil, when there is an easter way to success in life?

SIPHO: It is enough if my child is able to count my sheep.

THAMSANGA: But suppose he has to go before a magistrate. My son would be able to state his case, where~yours would need to hire an interpreter.

SIPHO: That is a small matter, if you keep out of trouble.

nAMSANGA: But if he walks through the country, my SOD will be able to -read the signposts, whereas

, your son must ask people, and per·

h~ be wrongly directed SlPHO: Don't worry, he will be able

to find his way about without any­one's help.

THAMSANGA: But here is something that is much more important than these small matters. There will come a time when your son and and mine will not be satisfied" with the thmgs they now have. They will wish to acquire power, as other peoples. How sh311 they prepare for that time except through school· ing?

SIPHO: You argue well, but come down to the root of the matter. You have passed Standard Sue What good has it ever done you?

THAMSANGA: I am only ODe man. Look over there. There is old Thembekile coming along the edge of the field. I should like to hear what he has to sayan this matter.

SIPHO: I don't think he will change my mind, but let us wait for him under this tree.

ThembekHe come$ .p.long. Be b an old man, but "tln tleTy alert and mgorous.

THEMBEKILE: Good day to you, young men.

THAMSANGA and SIPHO: (together) Good day, father.

THEMBEKILE: And what were you talking about so earnestly when I came alon_g?

THAMSANGA: I was saying that Sipho's son will fail if he is not educated.

SIPHO: I was saying that I did not think that school would do my son any good.

THEMBEKlLE, Ah, well, doubtless you young men are both right. And doubtless a lso you are .both wrong.

THAMSANGA : Explain yoursel1, father.

THEMBEKILE: It depends upon whe..­ther you take the long view. or the short view. I have no doubt that Sipho's son will get on quite well WlthOUt schooling. He can learn many things from Sipho which he could not learn in school. Such as the customs and history 01. his ance­stOts. How to live on the land. how to keep stock, aDd look. after animals when they are sick. The ways of the veld, and of the seasons.

SIPHO: What did I tell y!>u, Thamsanga: ?

THEMBEKILE: Nevertheless, Slpho, I think Thamsanga is more rIght than you. For in the long run, Qur ways of living must change. The world is changing all around us. The Bantu peoples must change. How can we Change? Only by observing and studying what is happening to other peoples. We must base our knowledge on theirs, and remodel their discoveries to suit our conditons. Where can we learn how to do these things? In one place only. In school. You cannot develop if you only know those things which your father knew. Although the results of school train­ing may not appear at once, they must make all the difference to us sooner or later.

SIPHO: I can see what you mean. father. Although I was not very impressed with what my :friend Thamsanga, says you have had a great deal of experience, and b?~ words ring true in my ears. It ' after all, I may send my son to school.

THAMsANGA: I am very glad. He then can be the friend of my son, and when they become men, they may work together for the service of our people,

England Carries On 3. NO SURRENDER

The Nazis are now saying that the severe rationing of tea in England has broken the English morale.

"The English cower in terror when our ainnen bomb their military oQjectives," boasts the Nazi radio. "They cannot have their much needed cups of tea to keep up their spirits/'

In truth, the boot is on the other foot. It is the Gennans who cower at the ceaseless, devastating bombing of the RAF. over Germany. One paper­has been suppressed because it urged wholesale evacuation of the country's industrial area, and the transfer at munition factori es to districts further­away from the British bomber bases.

The spirit of England is. as ever .. uncoD'Cfllerable. Rationing bas made­made English housewives "go a little-­easy" on tea, but they still manage:­their four or five cups a day.

4:HILDREN'S NEWSPAPER SUP PLEMENT TO UMTETELI WABANTU

The Wiles Of Mraduli By M. M. Mbiko

PART I

There was once a young man named Lifalake. whose parents had dted while he was still young.

He bad been brought up by his mother's brother, who never treated him well Lifalake's father had been a .,poor man who had left no property and hIS paternal uncle had made no profit out of LifaJake.

When he was eighteen years of age, Lifalake decided to leave his uncle and to go and seek his fortune. There was-"'a very rich tribe about seventy .miles away, which possessed great herds .of cattle. Here a herd man could earn as much as six to ten head of cattle in a year. Lifalake decided that this ~ployment would sUll him.

He set out one fine summer morning long before sunrise. In those days people believed in withcraft. It was not thought safe to let other people know where you were going, as evil persons might send spirits after the traveller, to kil him. So Lifalake told no one of his departure.

After a tiring day of travel, Lifalake carne to Kolobe's kraal. Kolobe was ..a rich moln, but he was very kind to Lifalake. He treated him as a friend, giving him meat for his supper, and because the night was cold, a great bowl of hot sugar tea. He told many exciting stories of war and of huntin" and many amusing stories of other kraals. When Lifalake told him that he was seeking his fortune, Kolobe was very sympathetic. /I I must tell you. my boy, " he said_ In the tribe which you seek. there is a very rich man named Mraduli. Al­though he pays very liberally. no man <lares remain in his employment. I would not say that he is cruel, but he is very mischievous. He sets his ser­vants impossible tasks. For instance, he might send you to fetch his riding ox, which grazes in a valley behind his kraal. Yet this ox has been trained to chase and to gore any man who approaches h)Jn . Onlv Mraduli's daughter knows how to bring in this ox. Many a man has been hurt and -even killed through such tricks as these."

. Tell me more about his daughter-, F ather," demanded Lifalake.

"She is a young girl of about nine­teen." said Kolobe. "And I must tell you my boy, that she alone has any po\ver over her father. Yet if any man could successfully carry out Mraduli's orders. I believe that he would win not only the esteem of the father but also the hand of the daughteI\ Such fort~ne. however, will not be easy to attaID. Many young men have failed. I would therefore advise you to ponder deeply before you approach Mraduli's kraa1."

Lifalake thanked Kolobe for his advice. but early the next morning he resumed his journey. As he marched he thouKht deeply over what he had heard. But in the end he decided to approach Mraduli. "If this .man pays liberally!' he thought, it

will be worth while trying him. I can easily leave if I find his work too dIfficult."

When Llfalake reached the place of the tnbe, he asked to be dIrected to Mraduli's kraal. The man to whom he spoke looked at him strangely. " What do you want there, young roan,u he asked. "I am vIsIhng," said Lifalake. " A dangerous visit," said the man. "Mraduli is a cruel wizard. His wife left him fifteen years a.c:o because of his cruelty. There is only one person m the world that this man loves and that is his daughter. Other people he regards as apes. He WIll engage a man for twenty or thirty head of cattle per year, but he will discharge hun within a week, saying he is not able to do the work. He boasts that only his daughter can do his work, and that no man IS as strong and as clever as his daughter. This is the sort of man whom you are visiting. I will not be 6uprised if it is your last visit on earth."

Nevertheless Lifalake decided to proceed to Mraduli's kraaL He wished to see for hlfnself how cruel this man was. After having lived with his uncle, he was not afraId of harsh treatment.

It was late in the afternoon when he arrived at Mraduli 's kraal. He found Mraduli sittmg smoking beside his cattle kraal. Lifalake saluted. After returning the salute. the old man asked what he wanted. When Lifa­lake told him, Mraduli replied, "My boy, you appear to be too weak to be able to do my work. I have often engaged men who looked stronger than you but none could do my work.

Lifalake replied, "Father. 'i: have worked hard since I was young. I wonder what work you can oller which I cannot do, now that I am full grown." "1 dont want to argue WIth you, my boy. Instead I shall try you. If you do not succeed you do not get any pay. If you succeed. you will be paid twenty head of cattle each spring. If you agree to these tenns. go to the huts and ask Nomalinde

l my daughter. to give you tea ana food. Tomorrow morning you go to work ...

Lifalake who by this time was very hungry. hurried to the huts. There be met Nomalinde, and his eyes opened widely. She was a very beautiful girl indeed. She gave Lifa­lake food and tea, and while he ate she questioned him. He told her about his youth and about the dances and amusements of his tribe. She asked many questions about the girls of Lifalake's country and then she sighed. She said that she was ex­cluded from all youthful pleasures by her father. who was so rich that he t~ought all his neighbours inferior to hIm. Never before, she said . had a young man stayed at the kraal. The people round about were afraid of her father:. When he hired a man, he pJaye.d trlcks upon him. She had been ~tr~ctly enjoined never to assist tus Vlchms. As a resulb. no young 'Ulan had ever stayed more than a week. She was therefore doing all

Tips For Laundrymaids (BY M. HLUBI,

No. 1. Definitions . WATER dissolves and carries away

dirt. There are two kinds of water­soft water and hard water.

SOFT WATER is best for laundry work because It combines quick1y with soap, making suds. Usual sources (rain water) . (Soft water is likewise very good for tea-making -Editor).

HARD WATER is found in wells rivers and springs. It becomeS hard through coming into contact with minerals in the earth. it €an be softened by adding a little soda for washing white clothes onl~' and for

woollens, colours, silks add a little borax.

SODA is manufactured from common salt it has the power of softening water and dissolving grease. Very little must be used for white clothes and never us. it for woollens, Bannel. colours and sl lks.

BORAX is a salt found in Califonia and .is also prepared in Italy_ It is a nuld alkali. It is used in water when washing fine things i.e_

woollens $ilks. It is also used for adding to starch to give gloss or (a shinning appearance) when clothes have been ironed, and also for re­moving tea-stains in table linen

STARCH is prepared from rice. ~aize and potatoes. The best starch is made from rice. It is used in the Laundry for replacing the stiffness taken out in washing. There are two kinds of starch used in the Laundry (a) Boiling water starch (b) Cold water starch.

BLU~ is used in Laundry fo help whIte c10thes keep their colour. It used to be prepared from Indigo. The pla.nt grows in India, but very little of It used now. Most of the blue is Ultra~arine, which is chemical pre­paratIon and not being a dye is easily removed by washing and gives a c1ear~r and a better colour.

SOAP IS a compound of fat. lye and water. The quality of soap depends on (1) the proportion of fat to lye.

the work-milking, driving cattle and sheep to the pastures. bringing them back, Cooking. killing and dressing sheep when her father wanted meat. Yet because of lack of help many sheep were being lost weekly: Never­theless, her father would not refrain :from trying his servants by giving them impossible tasks to do .

'ClHILDREN'S NEWSPAPER SUPPLEMENT TO UMTETELI WABANTU FEBRUARY 15 1941

My dear Children. Last week, I gave you an account of

the German way of hying. Smce then, great and far-reaching changes are taking place. The first of these is the steady British advance into Eritrea in Africa. In Libya. Allied forces are pushing forward their attack on Italian port towns with successful brilliance. This I descrl bed in my letter of January 26th. 10 which 1 mentioned h ow very useful our mobile tea can­teens were proving to OUf troops in the desert.

At the time of Wflting, the British. under General SIT Archibald Wavell are hammering at the gates of Derna. a hundred miles beyond Tobruk. 10 A lbania, Greek troops have advanced and occupied fortified points on heights of strategic advantage. Italian counter­attacks have been repulsed by the Greeks.

Indeed. it can be truthfully said that Mussolini's African Empire is rapidly dissolving, just as one would dissolve a tea·spoon of sugar in a cup of tea. The Italian people who did not want to fight against the BritIsh people. still do not know how much suffering they are still to endure 10 this war.

Already we read that German troops are pouring into Italy and occupying key positions in railway stations, factones and other great works. This can only mean one thing. that all the glory that was Italy's is now menaced from all sides. But we need not dwell on this aspect of the war.

The magnificent spirit shown by the Bntish people in their greatest hour of trial should inspire us all. Mr. Willkie, who was President Roosevelt's opponent lD the last American Presi· dential electIon, and who is visiting England from America. said of the people of Britain " I have met no­body downhearted so far," he said, "but I dId not exped to. You people must survive."

Why must En~land survive? Because in thIS war, it is "fighting

"for the Right . the RIght of all nations, great and small. to live their lives with freedom and faith; to worship their "God in whatever form their consciences approve of.

That is why English soldiers every­where have smiling, cheerful faces. "They know that they are fighting for .he right way of hving.

I TICKY TALES The Inheritance

Tixo had two sons. Mlungu and Mnyamana. They were always squabbling about their belongings. Mnyamana. as the elder son, claimed everything. Tixo grew very tired of the uproar. So one day he called his sons and said. "T am now going to give you your hvehhood. and I want to hear no more from you. I have two parcels here. and they contain all that you get from me." He threw out a very large parcel and a very small one.

Both boys pounced on the large parcel. but Mnyamana struck his brother a hard blow with a stick, shouting. "As the elder. the large parcel is mine." So Mlungu had to take the smaller But when they opened them. Mlungu found pen and ink, and Mnyamana found a pick and shovel. Thus Tixo's sons found occupations accorcbng to their merits.

Tips tor La uDdrymaids (Continued) An excess of lye is injurious to materials (2) the nature of fat whether hard or soft and (3) the presence and nature of adulterants. Animal fats combined with caustic

soda make a hard soap, suitable for laundry purposes. Vegetable oils (coconut olive oil etc.) make a softer soap suitable for toilet purposes.

Adulterants are added only to in· crease weight in the soap. Some are put into hide dirty fat (usually colouring matter). Perfumes and dis-­infectants are added to toilet and disinfectant soaps.

The Concert BY JUANA "

DIALOGUE.-Over a cup of tea.

MORRIS: That was a fairly g\~od concert. we attended last nigh ~ John. I do Wish they could let us have it again today.

JOHN: What queer taste YOU have Morris; I was bored stiff from beginning to end. Seems t( me our African entertainers can never reac? up to the heights of real good musIc and drama. Oh it made me just Sick. '-

MORRIS: What a puzzle you are. Everybody laughed until their sides ached at the antics of that fellow Samuel ' .... ;th his black face and goodly eyes. and of course the lady dancers were so clever m their twists and turns. My eyes just could not leave them. Si!

JOHN: How I wish these so called comedians could have a look at themselves. Why must they be dress­ed in such filthy rags to look funny. Personally I have never seen any­body quite so torn and tattered as your. beloved,. Samuel and instead of makmg me laugh he succeeded in disgusting me thoroughly.

MORRIS: You are right about the rags. I don't remember ever see­ing anybody quite so dirty looking myself. but of course when you are entertaining you can't be expected to be true to life. Otherwise people will not come to your con­certs. They will think them so dull

JOHN: Dull! Do you call life dull? What has your education done for you. Morris. Must we be shown the ugly side of hfe with its sq1:la1or and poverty in order to enjOy ou~elves? Must these girls ~ance their crude, untrained dances 10 .cheap, gaudy Western types of u~iiorm? Why couldn't thev have given us the dignified and -stately dances of t~e Zulu Warriors. ' .... ;th the enchantmg but weird chorusses of the women sung: to the beating of the drums? Where are the songs of our Bantu poets? Instead of "Half­a-~ague •. Half·a.Ltague onward­WhiCh Nahve youths murder in reci­tative? Oh, why did we not have­I have talked too much and see you are bored.

MORRIS; Not bored John, but vastly amused. I see you are suffering from what they call an inferiority complex. I don't quite know what ~t is, but from what I have heard of It sounds ven much like you today.

. You do not like to see your people making fools of themsives. because you are afraid of what others will think of them. I'm not afraid. I know my people can stand side to side .with any race, in any thing proVlded they have the opportunity to train for it. Meantime I am prepared to have a good laugh at those who make fools of themselves.

JOHN: Alright, we shall not argue a~'y further. There are always two S1des to any question and I am personally convinced that I am right today. The next time those fellows give a show. call me off old·chap I'll go to bed. '

Conference Important Discussion

at Langa THE report on the recent Location

Advisory Boards ' Conference was completed on Thursday last week by one of the Langa delegates, Mr. G. Nonga?za. He explained how the conference had di!lcussed matter.s that were of importance to Africans living in towns. One of the resolutioDs demanded the repeal of the Native Laws Amend­ment Act, 1937, and in particular of the provisions that enabled municipalities t o order employers to deduot location rents from wages , and close the towns to Africans who were looking for work. Many of these meD, who had to borrow money for t rainfare, were forced to return bome because of the restrictions and therefore suffer 6nancial loss.

Other resolutions asked (Continued in page 15)

for the future of the oon·European In Soutb Afrioa.

Goveromeot Ameodmenl It was unfortunate from our

point of view, that late in the de· bate, the Government moved an amendment to tbe no·oonfidenoe motion, calling on the hOU8e to ex­press ita full confidence io both the domestio and war polioy of the Goveroment. Naturally, while we oould honestly oppose M~lan'e motioo since hie party offers us no polioy tbat we cao aooept, we are, as we have always been, independ. ent of a. Government party with aU the fundamentals of whose Native policy we are also in disagreementl. We found it, tberefore, impoBl!ible to support the Government's counb· er motion.

Molteno took tbe occ&8ioo to b·lI the Minieter of Railways tbat the Noo·European railwsy workers are stili gravely di88atisfiud with their conditioos of servioe, aDd to inform tbe Boulie that, so far, Mr. Sturrook, in 8pite of hie Committee of En­quiry last year, has given less to the Non· Europeans than even Mr. Pirow did. Out of some 60,000 workers, only about 16,000 have received aoy improvement io their wage conditioos in this last year, at a coat of approximately £65,000 annually. Mr. Molteno urged again the necesaity for the railways to come into liDe wibh tbe besb private employers. Be also presied the Minister to publish tbe report ortbe Committee of Eoq airy. Both requests were strongly sup · ported by Mr. Alexander (U.P_ Cape Town Castle).

The M,uister has not yet replied to the debate, but there is reason to believe that when he does, he wiU anoouooe bis intention to bring in a Bill to gf'aot pell8ion rights to Non· European railway workers. This will be ODe very much needed improvement in the position of these worker. ; bub of couree, it does not render the need for bebter

Governme-nt suddenly decided to exclude tbe Native people from tbEt Ceosu~ to he taken this year, and wbat. It would have C08t to includ8 them sioce all th", arrangement!! had already been made to do so. Senator Dr. Brookes has some very pointed questions about the exclu. sian of Native-owned stock (rom the cattle sales at Vryheid aDd Louw8burg in Natal. Be al80' wants to know how the new t ax law is working aod haa therefo re­asked about arrests for fai lure to pay tax and the 8 8 I e s of s tam p s in 1940. Senator Welsh also a8ks w h e the r the Nath'es recruited io the­Transkei for work on the Nata' sugar estates are baving their rSllway fares paid.
