In the natural Pittsley state the albino hair is dingy, because they don't know any better, and if they did they probably wouldn't ndopt the mod- ern methods of washing hair. The eyes of the albino in this region prove their alvimism beyond question. They are usually described as pink, like rabbits’ eyes. They are extremely weak and almost closed so that it is difficult to get a square look intc the eye itself. When the eye is opened, the lid is lifted | only for a second, and it takee a quick look to discover shat tho pupil is dark red and surrounded with u lighter red ring, while the ball of the eye is pale pink and surrowsded with the pinkish rim of the eyelid. The effact wonld be thoroughly pink of the eye remained at rest. It is almewd imposiible to obtain a direct look iute the eye, becanse from the eye of the healthy albino red lights seem to dart, while the pupil quivers and dilates apd seems t) p10ve unceas- ingly, If is over a cemtury and a half since | : tho appearance of the first albino was | recorded ia the Pittsley tribe ‘that time probally more than 100 hav been born bearimg this name or having | Since mothers frome shis family.
