DELIVERING TAMANCOS, OR WOODEN SHOES 



This is the typical footgear of the working people of Rio. The shoes are manufactured 

 in the city and are not unlike the type of shoe worn by the Filipinos — that is, in their form. 

 They have wooden soles and their '"clap-clap" is like that heard on the streets of Japan.

ONE OF RIO'S 454 LICENSED CAKE-SELEERS 



The cake-seller is on every street of the down-town section of Rio and is especially in 

 evidence at the entrance to parks. The Brazilians are very fond of sweets, and the cakes 

 are as rich as French pastry. They are carried in glass cases.
