Society WNU Service mandate of FOUMBAN, Is astonishing. stands upon a hill and Is surrounded by an elaborate system of ancient trench fortifications dating from the years of the Fuiah raiders. The trees, which have been planted along every street, give it a wooded effect wholly absent among the neighboring grass meadows. One has an immediate impression of order, prosperity, civilization. Many of the houses of Foumban are d of brick and are roofed with native tiles or grass thatch. The compound fences are neatly constructed. The market, made of brick and tile, is modern in type and perfectly clean. At the center of the town is an Imstructure set in the posing three-stormidst of elaborate gardens. It is the palace of Njoya, sultan of the Bamoum and overlord of Foumban. Everything order, bricks, and garden is Indigenous. Foumban existed when the white man was no more than a myth. Even now outside Influences have touched it only slightly. The sultan and the majority of his people are Mohammedans. In accordance with the curious rule that people of the African deserts and prairies readily adopted Mohammedanism, and that the people of the African forests almost Invariably did not, the Bamoum scarcely recall a time when their life was not strongly Influenced by the Arabic belief. In the center of the town, facing the sultans palace, is the mosque, a frame building of strongly Moorish type, even to the vertical stripes of red and white paint Here, every Friday, the elite of the Bamoum gather. Subchiefs Are a Proud Lot The many ngt, or subchiefs, of the tribe, some of whom exert far more real power than the sultan himself, come in from their districts, bringing with them a string of dependents. They make a striking picture. Nearly all aristocrats of the Cameroun plateau ride horseback and dress In Immense flowing robes covered with bright embroidery. Some swathe their heads in white or blue turbans; others wear the characteristic floppy straw hat of the Fuiah cattle herders. All have an air of faintly contemptuous majesty. They, the rulers, they fondly think, d are the conquerors from the North, and therefore the superiors of the Indigenous peoples with whom they have merged. As a matter of fact, little trace of the Arab strain remains, certainly so far south as Foumban. The Bamoum, except for unusual stature and the occasional appearance of an Isolated straight-feature- d type, are distinctly negroid. The ngi, when they come to town, are followed, according to their rank, by greater or less entourages. Several male members of his family usually accompany the ngi, also mounted. The horses are richly caparisoned In red and green leather. The men carry elaborate spears, with shafts of hardwood and tips of silver or native bronze. Behind comes an Inconspicuous rabble of wives, usually with produce for sale at the week-enmarket, and several depressed-lookinburros, not quite as heavily laden as the women. While the ceremony at the mosque Is In session the women and burros sit respectfully about outside. When the men come out, Foumban stirs with unaccustomed activity, an activity which continues until the country people stray away home late the following day. Markets Are Picturesque. All sorts of produce are spread out In the market There are leather boots, scabbards, and decorated harness; superb pieces of Bamoum embroidery; rolls of homespun cotton cloth ; carved wooden household articles of every description. Hardly less picturesque is the food market First of all, there are thousands of ears of fine Indian corn. It grows everywhere on the plateau. More special delicacies range all the way from roasted termites eggs to crocodile steaks, things of considerably less Interest to a white traveler. More than a thousand people attend the market The sounds, sights, and smells of vigorous native trading give an Impression of thriving, continuing African life such as one scarcely senses among the less developed forest types, d particularly among the dreary, creatures of the jungle of southern Cameroun.

The cruel Hausa bit, an Iron circle that rings the horses tongue and holds in its upper side a sharp prong that gouges the animals flesh when the rein Is pulled, had proved its effectiveness. Later in the afternoon, the play took the form of a series of weird traditional dances performed In masks. These masks, a fine collection of which may be seen in the private museum of Sultan Njoya, are of copper or wood or a combination of the two materials. Many, though deliberately grotesque, show rare sculptural ability. Some are enormous, some ridiculously small ; others have the shape of animals heads horses, baboons, crocodiles, etc. Sultan and His Museum. One of the most unusual things In Foumban Is the museum of Sultan Njoya.. But Njoya, a magnificent, black chieftain, with the smile of a nice baby. Is an unusual man. He Is himself, for one thing, the Inventor of one of the only two written alphabets known to have been produced In negro Africa a phonetic alphabet which apparently has nothing In common with any other on the earth The museum occupies a long room at the top of the palace. It contains a collection of carving, bronzes, spears, beadwork, brass jewelry, embroideries, and textiles for which the curator of any ethnological museum would give an arm. Njoya has gathered the things because he admires them and because he takes pride in every tradition of hls people. In other words, civilization has not penetrated with Its teaching that all things not manufactured In Europe are therefore contemptible. It must be added that the French goverumen resident at Foumban, M.
