    Description: SAED:SOCIAL:HEALTH:DRUM AUGUST 1952 Ð Birth Of A Baby Ð Nurse Mntuyedwa proudly looks after the baby, Jacob, please that he is a fine, strong boy. The birth of a baby is the greatest event in the world. Although it means an upheaval in the home, hard work and worry for the midwife and sometimes pain for the mother, when it is all over it brings new life and rejoicing. The midwifeÕs job is often a hard one, for most of her patients are poor African women with little equipment. Often the midwife must search for clean towels and, when the bay is born, be content to wrap it in some old garment. (Photograph by Jurgen Schaderberg © BAHA) NEG 077 FRAME 4

Ð Every morning in JohannesburgÕs locations anxious hungry black children can be seen queueing up in front of a stall, pushing out empty mugs for milk, and scrambling for peanut-buttered bread. They are some of the 5,000 African children who get an extra daily meal of rich food from the African Children Feeding Scheme. They feed 10 schools. And have nine feeding centres in the Reef locations. (Photograph by Jurgen Schadeberg ©Baileys Archives) NEG 254 FRAME 22

Then something went wrong and he lifted his head and wailed inconsolably to the skies as only a child in pain or anger can. In this trouble-torn, fast changing world, there remains one constant and untouched wonder - our children. They bring us our greatest joy and our biggest heartbreak. What is more warming than a child's smile, and what more saddening than the trusting look of a sick or starving child? Theirs is a world left untainted by the hates, fears and prejudices of their parents. (Photograph by Peter Magubane ©BAHA)

    Description: Immediately following the ritual, a special drink of cows blood and milk is mixed for the newly-initiated warrior to drink.Circumcision is an important ritual for all young men in Samburu culture. It is a ritual that marks the end of childlike things and ultimately sets the young man on the path to warrior status. The circumcision ritual happens once every 8 to 10 years and the boys, aged as young as 8 and sometimes as old as 20 are circumcised en masse in a 2 month-long ceremony as the circumcisor travels from village to village to complete his task. The event is an emotionally charged event and boys wait for what must be an eternity during the last week for the circumcision to take place. It is performed by a specially-anointed man whose skills are passed down from generation to generation.For each boy, the ceremony is performed without anaesthetic, only cold water to lull what must be overwhelming pain. Yet each boy faces the ritual with the utmost dignity - for even to flinch

    Description: A newly-initiated warrior takes a break in his home dwelling at the peak of the day when the sun is highest and temperatues soar.Circumcision is an important ritual for all young men in Samburu culture. It is a ritual that marks the end of childlike things and ultimately sets the young man on the path to warrior status. The circumcision ritual happens once every 8 to 10 years and the boys, aged as young as 8 and sometimes as old as 20 are circumcised en masse in a 2 month-long ceremony as the circumcisor travels from village to village to complete his task. The event is an emotionally charged event and boys wait for what must be an eternity during the last week for the circumcision to take place. It is performed by a specially-anointed man whose skills are passed down from generation to generation.For each boy, the ceremony is performed without anaesthetic, only cold water to lull what must be overwhelming pain. Yet each boy faces the ritual with the utmost dignity - for even to
