Habits and customs of the people, views of quaint and little-known villages, inviting brooks and rivers, smoke- crowned volcanoes and other features are shown. Recreations of the dark-skinned natives, the fortnightly 'iiaribazar,' the open-air Oriental entertainment and other diversions give the spectator a 'close-up' of the light-hearted islanders. The club- house, a social center of Americans and Europeans, the village cutups on 'Main street' and numerous other sidelights axe presented. The sanitary homes, which have replaced the thatched, floorless huts, demonstrate the progress made in living conditions within a few years." Producer sh Malays of Sumatra. (Harvard Pathe ser.)
