Legends
Darwin, Oct., 18. Legends gathered during a five months' stay with natives of Melville Island, guarding Van Diemen Gulf at the top of Australia's Northern Territory, will figure soon in records being prepared by Mr Charles Mountford," an " ethnol, ogist.
Geologists and other scientists have theories of how Melville Island and Bathurst Island came to be where they are, but native tribal leaders and members of the tribes have a story of their own which has been handed down from generation to generation.
Mr Mountford has a way with the AustralianTM. aborigines on his home ground and for many years he has been collecting at first hand a mass of date which imakos possible a written record of the first primitiva inhabitants who roamed the coasts and hinterland of the vast continent.
Now that he has completed hig work as leader of the National Geographical Society's expedition to the islands. Mr Mountford is looking to
spall of writing—and of living in less primitive conditions than he has had in his 30 years' study of the natives, thair folk-lore and the culture which has
sivon them the means of existence.
ATTITUDE TO WOMEN
Nailves of Melville Laland, he found, differ from other aboriginal tribes in their attitude to their women folk, whose social staħding - ko myx la comparable or even superior to that of European women.

They play an equat part with the men in tribal ritual and
and ceremonica
la, no background of "secrets" known only to men as is the case with all other tribes, among some of whom the penalty of imparting
the the secrets of
men to a woman is death.
The higher status of Melville Island women arises, Mr Mount- part ford believes, from the that women play in the myths and legends of the tribe.

Another legend is that tha natives of Melville Island were once immortal, but the wife of one Purukapall was unfaithful and deserted him and their son and doughter for Moonman Japart,
