The city lies at the head of a beautiful bay, dotted here and there with picturesque islunds. “The small native settlements of island consist, for the most part, of flimsy, thatch-roof houses group- d in helter-skelter wdorned with intercsting bits of tive carving. Jolo City a Tropical Gem “But Jolo city is an exception.

There are many Moros in the Jolo street crowds but most of them live out- side the city wall. When the Spaniards first built the city, the foros frequently attacked it and the natives were never allowed to erter the bamboo stockade, which was built around the town for pro- tection. Later they were permitted to enter only on condition that they parked’ their arms outside the walls. In those days every Moro man, wom- | an and child 1 Wall Prote “Jolo now is surrounded by an| sight-foot brick wall, with gates leading to the island interior. A drive over the island roads is like ing through a huge park. Many acres of the island are occupied by rice fields where turbaned natives plow with carabaos and small chil- dren sit in tiny towers, pulling strings with streamers attached, to frighten hungry birds. “The entire family works in hemp plantations and helps cut teak for- est, At no point in Jolo is the traveler out of sight of mountains. “Tumatangus, the ‘mountain of tears’ is the highest peak, so named be se it afforded the last glimpse of their island home to natives who wept when they were deported in| bygone days. The durian tree. towering high above all others, interests visitors. Its fruit is highly prized by the IPilipinos. It is about the size of a foothall, weights from eight to 10 pounds. and has a surface like the spiny back of a porcupine. The edible part of the durian clings to | about two dozen sceds as large as hens' eggs. The substance tastes lilke bananas but its odor is not im- mediately pleasing to unaccustomed nostrils. Bamboo Tube is Jolo Water Bucke “The Jolo highways are alive with men, women and children on their way to market. Now and then Loy trudges along under the weight of what appear to be a long hamboo pole, about four or five inches in diameter and six feet long. The traveler learns that this is the Jolo er bucket. The Moros like color, which sharply contrasts with their gingerbread-colored skin. Men wear red turbans, purple trousers. and shirts of other brilliant colors while their barefoot, hatless wives wear long-sleeved jackets and vo- luminous skirts. The Moro women's tecth are usually black from chew- ing betel nut. The Bajaos, or sea gypsies of Jolo, live along the ¢ in huts raised on high stilts, or in hoats. The front steps of the Bajaos' hut is a notehed log up which a woman can nimbly carry a small baby. The Ba- juos stay on land only a few hours a time, for even when a storm is azing on the sea they feel safer in thicir ocean-front abodes.
