“The Li’l Wife In Africa”"] (Editor’s Note: Because so many have suggested we write some of our African experiences; and because so much is written of big game, and so little of housekeeping near the Equator, the editor’s wife is writing, from the diary she kept, about “The Li’l Wife in Africa.”) Having left our guns at the border we continued on to the company’s main post of the diamond concession, with me expecting to be atatcked by something larger than mosquitos, at any moment. We arrived at the Head Man’s home about sundown, where other Americans, finishing their rounds of golf, came to glimpse the new arrivals and to say Only one or two were left as friends of the editor's previous tenn there, but we could all speak the same language with no thought of what tense to use in this case. After the hello’s, I had to be explained to by each and all, as to why they had taken our guns. Jt seemed for years now the government would take guns from people coming in and would send them on to the Red Tape Office, further south, to be licensed. And all the poor owners were then sent out into the field to hunt diamonds, and to keep writing frantic letters th the Head Man, to please use his influence to get them their property. Sometimes, if he were lucky, a man would get his gun and part of his shells back in three or six months, and sometimes his whole term wmuld be finished, and with him gone home, the government would have to auction off unclaimed property, wouldn’t it? The Head Man said he had gotten his guns in, this term, by going down south to the Red Tape office and waiting there, each morning asking what little technicality was holding things up that day. The editor asked if he got time off for that too, but the Head Man smoothed things with the explanation that with money paid down and the receipt i nthe editor’s pocket, we might get our guns in a few months, not to hurry and worry. When the officials got down to it, it might take 15 minutes to write oAt our licenses. We * remembered that during our two years. We had arrived there the latter part of June, paying for a year's license on each and all of two guns and two revolvers. The guns were returned to us, pitted with rust, the last of September. The 23rd of December we received warning from the government that we would have to have new for another whole year, by the 31st of December or our guns would be con- ’ fiscated. Together wit . hall the other frantic employees of the comypany, we Iggnt is oht appUcatiooi to the

main office. The, company kindly offered to send a truck to the main Red Tape office, to get the licenses there for. us, as of course the government runs rio mail service to accomodate those ordered by law to use same. Sad to relate .the employee scheduled to attend to this got drunk, tore up the licenses in a moment of celebration—and the government refused to let any such applications be sent in after that fatal Dec. 31. So 45 of us had our guns confiscated. They were resold wiuthout any notice so that those who lost ’em could not<even bid on them- We presonally knew of some 3200 worth of guns going for 315. Tears were almost shed over the elephant gun about as tall and heavy as I. But we’d nad them for 3 months out of 24, what do you expect in Africa, especially when in those three armed months, the ojnly large game seen made noises like mosquitos and tree toads. While talking guns the first day though, one of the men about to go home on a vacation, finishing his first term, told me 1 needn't pine for a gun, I’d never get <to use it. In all his two years, they’d had one lion experience. ‘ One, or maybe two, lions had come into this country almost cleared of game, by following the cattle being brought up from South Africa. Eveveryone had at' least heard one of those lions roar at night, but this American who was grieving over the matter to me, newly arrived. He Said he ordered his sentry to waken him'the next night the lion roared. A sentry is a native who builds a fire out in the yard near your house, and goes to sleep there all night, supposedly on duty as a sentry and to to turn into a messenger when you wish a message sent someplace. Two or three nights passed, and every morning someone heard the lion roar., except my poor friend. So he explained tQ the sentry- in detail just what he’d do to him, if heldidn’t call him to listen in on the next alarm. That night, this first termer had just gotten to sleep when the sentry roused him. On the white man jumping out of bed all excited, the sentry explained, “ 1 just called you to tell you I haven’t heard the lion yet.” The white man ordered him out. The sentry got out then, but he returned at half hour intervals during the night, always with the same announcement .that he hadn’t heard the lion. That firsf termer never did get to hear a lion roar, he said. The man in charge of the cattle on the farm had poisoned the. carcass of soine of the beef killed by his majesty the previous evening; and when the lion returned to its now poisoned prey during the “silent" night, he had got a large dose of parts green that silenced him for good! ————+—o—■ —————..

proach of the storm may be noticed at some distance. Refuge to the north of the tornado’s track is usually safer than at the same distance to the south. If quick escape is impossible, get into a torado cellar, or into the cellar of the frame house. The safest spot in the cellar is usually close to the wall on the side from which the storm is approaching. This
