Strange But True

The Bashikouey ant olT Africa are more to be feared. than the most teroclous Jungle beast. These little insects - about one inch ling - are more powerful when combined than any living thing in the forest. All other animate things rice (or their lives when the march of ants begins.

This species of ant do not build homes or any kind. Like izypaies. they are forever on

some day they win disappear trim the earth like the mestodon and other gigantic animals and reptiles dheppured. That day will come when civilisation wipes out the forests and Jungleey at Equatorial and Central Africa. for as I told you in the beginning ot this article, they cannot live in the hot sun.

Such is the order of nature which the all wise Father has

form a long regular line about two inches wide and often several miles long. For this mighty host to pass a given point takes about twelve hours.

Strange but true. these insects cannot hear the heat of the sun. When they come to a place where there are no trees to shelter them, they dig underground passages, through which the whole army marches in orderly column to the forest ahead. These tunnels are only used during the heat of the day. At other times they oncom- pass the tunnels to the loreet be- yond.

when the time comes to dine. the long thin line circles itself to form a front line. Then they at-

circle or enclosure. Gorillas and elephants have been overpowered and the meat stripped from their bones in half an hour. No wonder that man and beast tie. for their lives at the approach of such an enemy.

Sometimes the natives tie their prisoners to a tree, growing dir- ectly in the path of these Baski- kouay. What a terrible death fol- lows. you can fancy!

When a village or single house blocks their path they torce their way inside and clear it of every living creature. Such a vast army make: short. work of rodents, roaches and other small insects. Domestic animals left behind by their owners tare no better. In spite oi the most frantic struggles, their bones are stripped in an in- credible short time. .

No wonder that when they are on the march the whole world or living things tlee before them. They even climb trees in search of birds' nests. caterpillars. and what have you. They pursue their prey as a rat terrier pursues a rat, and seem to be animated with the gen- lus of destruction. It may be in- teresting to mention their man- ner of attack. First they make a great leap, then the strong pin- cera are fastened, and they hold on like I. bull dog. "What we have we hold." would seem to be the motto of these terrible insects. which, it they were large, would be the most terrible enemy man

battle. they are airald of death.

It a person dies in one of their villages. the village is abandoned for a new site.

Their sick are alien deserted or driven into the forest to die of starvation or loneliness.

Think of it! Those Bakalai (as they are called) have no crema- tories. When a person dies the body is tossed into the jungle. and that is the end of it. What a lot or missionary work remains to be done in Africa.
