THE CHRISTIAN HERALD, Novembers, 1913 Page 1019 MEKE-MEKE. A FIJIAN WAR-DANCE AT BAU A TYPICAL FIJIAN VILLAGE ON THE REWA RIVER. A CANNIBAL VILLAGE TO-DAY BY DR. ROBERT A. BACHMANN, U. S. N. WHEN you come into the port of Suva, the largest city of the Fijigroup of islands, the first real impression of the place will be givenby a boat or two full of natives, tall, muscular and black, whosefuzzy thick hair has been trained to stand out from the head five orsix inches like a huge, well-trimmed mop. Some have lighter hair than theothers, almost a shade of reddish blond, contrasting strangely with theirswarthy African complexion. This effect is much desired, and is obtained byplastering the scalp once a week with lime. They will hold up a bunch of bananas or shout some picked-up Englishphrase at you, and grin, displaying usually thirty-two fine white teeth.
