positions under the supervision of God and are thus able to intercede with God for mankind. They continue human spirits and keep in touch with their earthly relatives, hence a man'a acts should be ao conducted as to please the living as well as the dead. The Bantu believes that after death man is relieved from his evil physical desires and his outlook becomes more enlightened and ceases to do evil or think evil. Therefore there can be no evil spirits, but because of man's evil deeds on earth, the spirit is some. times banished from the spiritual world for a term of years, to be re- admitted later.

With such a conception of the Creator they naturally consider that religion is also a principle in Nature and resides in man for the correct guidance of his life, and therefore there is no necessity for special religious institutions. They believe that closer touch with God is curential for the spiritual needs of man, and to this end there is estadished in man by God a light (gul) as a means of attaining that end. Religion thus forma an integral part of both their spiritual and moral life and the home is considered as one's Church, so to speak.
