"I was in town Tuesday and saw a
big Hindu festival. Most of the nat-
ives were out 'in their gay coloured
clothes and it was just like a 12th of
July back home. The first in the pro-
cession were two men beating on
drums and another some kind of a
flute. Then came a 'man and a little
boy with most of their clothes off and
their bodies 'all painted up to look
like tigers, They were doing some
kind of a religious dance to the music.
This was followed by natives dressed
up it all kinds of costumes. Two in
particular were very funny, They had
head, shoulders, bust and arms made
out of some clay to represent some
gods with a lcnig skirt hanging down
to the ground. Men were inside these
things walking down the street. They
would come and dance in front -of you
and then reach their head out from
under the skirt to beg for sonic money
or a cigarette. One of them came and
danced in front of ,me 'and I did a
little .dance with him. Another fellow
and I got our pictures taken with him.
The next in the parade was a beauti-
ful ark or' temple on a wagon which
was pulled by dozens of eager men
and women, • I don't know what it
represented but it sure meant a lot to
those people. The design of this
shrine was very Oriental and contain-
ed gold and precious stones. As
said in one of my previous letters this
Island is made up of all kinds of re-
ligions. So far have seen the Hindu
festival and the Buddha devil dance..
I have a good picture of the devil
danCe that am going to send home.
The Buddhists have these dances
every so often to scare the devil away.
The only people I have not seen put
on ca show are the Mdhammedans,
There are plenty of them here and can
be diStinguished by the round high
red hats they wear with. a tassel
hanging down from the top. The
other night I got a ride out to camp
in an ambulance driven by an Indian
soldier. I got in the. back of the am-
bulance which was full of Indian sol-
diers and had a heck of a time trying
to talk to them. Some were Hindus,
some Mohammedans and one fellow
was a Christian. lie was the only one
who could speak a little bit of English.
He was so proud that he was a Christ-
ian that he had a cross tattooed on his
ar,
The people here are distinguished
by their religion and not by their !dc,
nomination or polities. ant sorry to
say there are very few Christians,

anything without first consulting the

he is old enough to get married, Hie
father picks out a girl for him and
goes, to her lather where he puts the
rInestion to hint, If everything is sat-
isfactory between the two fathers then
they consult the horoscope to see if
they are born under the proper sign
of the Zodiac to get along with each
other. If not the deal is off and ,bey
try somewhere else, Quite often th e
cloy never sees the girl he is going to
marry until the fatal day. What a
surprise same of them must get when
they, look at each other for the first
time,
I guess by the time you get this
letter it will be starting to get pretty
cold, you may even be thinking of
Christmas. Often in the cold winter
days I used to complain about the
weather and wish I was in a nice
warm country where they didn't have
ld. T 'beautiful al any eo me me p m
trees, the nice sandy beaches and the
blue waters of the south seas was my
idea of heaven. However, all those
dreams have vanished now and when
I get back to Canada they can keep
all the South Sea Islands, I for one
will be satisfied to stay in the best
country in the world and never com-
plain about the cold again. You know
there is something nice about the
changing seasons, You seem to look
forward to the next season and pre-
pare for it, It keeps one looking
ahead all the time. Down here it gets
very monotonous. Everyday is the
same. The temperature ohartges very
little. The sun shines every day ex-
cept when it rains and it is only for
awhile and the sun comes out again.
The Monsoon season takes place twice
a year when it rains almost steadily
every day. However the temperature
remains about the same. Up country
they tell me. it gets quite cool around
Kandy. They even put blankets over
them at night. Where we are it is
almost too warm to wear pyjamas at
night. 'We sleep on cots with a cotton
sheet under us and a large netting
hanging from the rafters down over
our cots to keep the mosquitoes and
flies" off when we sleep.
