New Guinea Natives in Full Dress.
(Prepared by the Natlonal Geographic
Society, Washington, D. C.)
ESPITE the steady work of

~ The island fs strikingly different
from nearby lands. In coming to
Papua from Malasia it is the sudden
contrast In the people which makes
the most startling impression ‘on one's
mind. The Malay, grave, reserved
and dignified, is as unlike his New
Guinean neighbor as a Chinaman f{s
unlike a Kuropean. These f{slanders
are a happy, boisterous lot until some
little thing offends them, when they
at once become sullen and treacherous.
The pure Papuan is very dark
brown, usually a well-built, thick-set
man of medium helght. Oceasicnal in
dividuals are seceu who are slight,
short, and who have strongly marked
Negritos characteristics. ‘These prob
ably vepresent survivals of the very
earliest human inhabitants of the re
gion, as were the Negritos in the P’hil
ippines. Out on the I’yeitic coast. to
ward the old German territory the
human type is markedly different.
Here In varying degrees one meets
people who have characteristies of
other island groups to the eastward,
for there probably have been acci
dental colonizations along this shore.
When the Pacific territorial trans
fors began during the World war,
German New Guinea was added to
the British possessions in the island
and placed under Australian control;
the western half has for 75 years be
longed to the Netherlands. Though
the island cannot properly be consid
ered as part of the Malay archipelago,
Its population being Polynesian and
Negrito, it is often so classed because
part of it is politically a portion of
the Duteh East Indies.

The island enjoys one distinction
not many other large areas of the
earth can boast--a great shortage of

Even so, the poor widows are made
to sufter such indignities because of
the death of their lords that few of
them are able to attract another hus

Phillida turned her lovely, vacant
