KEEP Low Rates KEEP Good Service KEEP A Good, Tax-paying Citizen % KEEP Nebraska Power AS IT IS Top Hats and Tom Toms “.on his head a gray topper sat with as much dignity as ever gractd a British brow.” This pictu’re was taken in Mon rovia and is one of the illustrations in the new book “Top Hats and Tom-Toms” by Elizabeth Dearmin Furbay, just published by the Ziff-Davis Publishing Company. “Top Hats and Tom-Toms” —a lively, informative, and brilliantly detailed picture of the col orful Republc of Liberia—goes a long way toward dispeling the obscurity of this ittle African Negro country. The author draws on a wealth of knowledge acquired during three years residence in Monrovia, the capital, where her husband, Doctor John Harvi y Furbay, served as head of the College of West Africa. From the sorcery of the jungle to the sophistication of the met ropolis, TOP HATS AND TOM-TOMS, by Elizabeth Dearmin Furbay, is the colorful, informative picture of life among the aristocratic descend ents of the American Negroes, who rule the Republic of L beria, a re mote little country situated on the “Grain" coast of Africa. For three years Mrs. Fu'rbay liv ed in Monrovia, Liberia’s capital, where her husband seved as head of the College of West Africa, and where she came in close contact with every class of resident, from top government official to bllsh native cannibal. Because of the proximity of the Hinterland- -the bush country, inhabited by tribal peoples, Mrs. Furbay was able to father some fascinating materal about the Ju-Ju, the Devil Bush, and the incantations of the witch doctor, which, as she so aptly des cribes it, “sway the top-hatted ar istocrat as well as the native.” The unmorali^ of the Liberians, as related by Mrs. Fu'rbay, is am azing. While accepting the social formalties common to Occidental countries, marital customs hav 1 been revolutionized. Daughters of the so-cauea ‘‘four hundred”, who have strayed from the beaten path, cause not even a raised eyebrow. Native women often bear the child re onf men of different European nationalities; men often have sev eral wives other than their legal spouse, and offspring of such un ions have their place in the regular | Wanted! | MAN & WIFE TO WORK IN PRIVATE HOME (FAMILY OF THREE) OFF THURSDAYS ALL-DAY, AND SUNDAY AFTERNOONS Will Pay $150.00 PER MONTH SALARY CALL WA-9051 family household. I Mrs. Furbay is to be commended for having written so complete a narrative of Liberia, and thereby dispelling much of the obscurity that has surrounded that country since it was founded. Charmingly written, lively in its many desc J> tions, TOP HAT AND TOM-TOMS is a ‘must’ for every library. “SO LITTLE TIME” NOVEL LEADS BEST SELLERS “So Little Time,” John P.
