NEGUS FIGHTINQ MEN — THE OLD AND NEW
When Haiti Sellassie lit his war
sires on the peaks of Abyssinia, war-
riors far and near flocked to Addis
Ababa. They were barefoot, clad in
their sheet-like garment and armed
with an ancient rifle or spear. But

modern army as well. ABOVE, the
two types are compared. (1) one of
the newly -trained officers of the mod-
ernized' Abyssianian army, who, far
from his predecessor in (2) barefoot
and primitively armed, wears a smart
uniform, riding boots, gloves and a
Sam Browne belt. Although his em-
peror has .declined enlisted rePluits
from England and U. S., foreign in-
structors are now knocking the "lion
of Judah's" troops into shape,
