‘S ii\iLiUU tells nie, father." said

G Photo Hunipto, "that the

hide of a rhiiioctros, when

properly dried, can he made into

shields, and that the skin may dlfv be prcpawi so as to have the rm.:-

while: he was giving nie that thrilling ride the other day? Then I could have

sliced up his hide and made it into lit-

I-le shields for the boys of Goobf_»t|'s tribe and into dandy hair combs for the

girls. And 1 ani sure, father, that

with one of these shields l could even

dsfencl myself against the iittaclf. of bloodthirsty mosquitoes and gnals.”

Elephnnt Hunter, overhearlng l'hotn's

ratn»\--., Sinllingly remarked: "l fear that a penknifo is hardly the \\'t-upon to use in killing a rhitioceros. (mi--.~ upon a time I shot a big bull rhino right lhruugh tim hnall.

Siiddi.-iiiy the rhino struggled to his fee-t and walked away, although terribly wounded. It is very likely your shields and 1.-onib:-1 would escape you ln

siinilar fnshiozi."

But liwaiia Huinpto_ wishing not tu

discourage his non, observed that t1 rhino hunt would be orgaiiizud liniiio- diately, and that Photo could :lo no he pleas;-ii with the hide. \\'lillc plans were being illscussed, Doctor Pillu siild to the boy; »

“I don't think l should llko potted rhi-

noceros," responded Photo, "although I suppose it would b! nicer than potted grranium to eat."

The hunting party now started to pen-

etrate into the forest. Pretty soon a

native reported that a rhino was nearby.

"Sounds like a cyclone," observed

.i’liuto. as they came upon the rhino

i-tirelessly tearing up with his horn bushes and trees, the leaves and roots of which he sought to eat. Then Photo took a snapshot.

Bwiina. Huinpto raised his rifle and

ilred. But the rhino was so uiipollte BS '-0 UIDVE. thereby havink a tooth

knocked out. He squealed, bent his head low and crashed through the reeds toward the brave hunter.

Looking coolly into the wicked red

Gyes of the rhino, Bwana Huinpto again raisttl his rliie and fired. Then Photo Humpm took a snapshot. For the rhino was dead.

Aa the natives proceeded to hack und

hvw lit thc. carcass, Photo saniitereil furilier into the jungle. All at i-in-c he hi-urtl a grant commotion. I"-erlng through the trees, he saw a gi-i-at rhi- nocems.

"Has the animal been whliew:i.~alicd,

`i`reppo'."' asked the lad of thi- natural- ist, who followed closely in his rent;

"No, my boy," explained 'i`ra|ipo;

"this rhino is Whitt- Ln-caiise lie li:isn‘t svnse enough to possess the bluish lead color wvery fieli’-respecting black Afri- can vhlno owns." `

Thi.-ii Photo Humpto tried to take n

sii'i;»t=liot. The animal moved hastily n\\'a_v. but Photo, not tn hu outwlttefl. shouted for his hors" nnd rodo rzipiilly after the rhino. Doctor Plllo called to the retreating lad:

“Here is ti. lltflc verse of uarnlng

which F should like to have you incin- orlze-:

“Bs vary care-ful in iii# jungle

AE THE RHINO CHARGES

Ullfvflunllely. the boy did not heed

the doctor's warning. He followed pell- mell after the white rhino, taking no heed as to direction. This was exactly what the wily beast desired. A chum he was of the rhino that had been slain, and he was determined to entrap one of his enemies in the jungle. Always keeping a safe distance between himself

and his puruuer, he led the wny for hours. The afternoon waned. the brief

period of twilight passed before Photo

hardly was aware of it, and night was upon lilni. For away were his friends -where, Photo did not know. He was hopelessly lost. The white rhinoceros f had well played his guna thus far.

Bqueal after squeal from the rhino

now echoed through the forest. It was a signal for the appearance of count-

5>_v_

dana between the Athi river and the

Uganda Railway. In the morning ha`

was round by natives and ltd back to his fath0r‘l clmfl. `nsar Machakol. Bwsnn. Humpto reprimanded his son for nut carrying his weapons con- stantly. ,

"Father," solemnly replied the My.

"I shall do as you wish; yet I have found my precious kodak the safest weapon in the world."

Then Photo Huniptc took s. snapshot.

"That's just your way, Jessie! You'vs

the others in chorus.

The gods will condescend to eat the food, and as they increase in size so shalt thou grow thinner."

Ki promised to obey the commands

of the gods. Three times at day he toiled from his house to the templo with his burdens of food. It was hard work, and the mcrcliniit puffed and groaned and
