Title	African children doing their laundry, Tanzania, ca. 1900-1914
Description	"Jungafrika hält 'Grosse Wäsche'." ("'Young Africa' doing a lot of laundry."). Five African children are standing and crouching on a flat rock in a river. They are doing laundry. Two children are swimming in the river. In the background: the lush riverside.; Postcard published by the Leipzig Mission. -- Cf. stamp no. A12. Imprinted on the backside: "Wäsche im Urwaldgewässer. Eine Hauptursache der zahlreichen Krankheiten ist darin zu suchen, dass die Eingeborenen keinen Begriff von einer richtigen Gesundheitspflege haben. Sie müssen daher an Reinhaltung des Körpers, der Wohnstätte und der Kleidung gewöhnt werden, wenn das Volk gesunden soll." ("Doing laundry in a rainforest river. One main reason for the numerous diseases can be seen in the fact that the Africans do not have any idea about correct healthcare. They have to get used to purification of the body, the dwelling and clothes if the people are to get well.").
