Last week: Apprehensite lest the strange lost people harm them, Bob and Melissa plan to "escape. And in their exhaustion of the moment they fall asleep. CHAPTER XX Just at dawn a weird chanting and hallooing awakened 'Lissa. "Bob! Get up, dear. Bob! Its starting already." The day's festivities were- in- deed under way. The white couple had removed only their shoes at bedtime and so were peering out in a moment or two. Already a great pile of wood had-been as- sembled near the chieftain's house and other wood bearers were -1--scen coming from far and near. Apparently every villager, old and young, was contributing to the Juel-supply and was making it an occasion for song. The songs had little but rhythm to recommend them. They were wordless, ofttimes discordant sounds in minor key. Yet they were in a definite pattern, the 3 1700 white couple digterned, and every- body seemed to know them, The sun had not actually ap- peared as yet but the dawn was bright gray. It would be 9 o'clock or so, Bob observed, before the actual fireball itself could appear 'over their horizon. This was be- cause of the sheer diffs that hemmed in this kingdom to pro- tect and isolate it from the out- side world. Studying the light, Bob decided it must be nearly 8 o'clock even now; they had slept very late, but they were refresh- ed. 4 . "We're getting off to a good start, anyway," he said to 'Lissa. "I hope I can remember some of these chants." Obviously the villagers knew -exactly what they were doing, for there was no confusion, and the pile of wood grew rapidly. Nec- essarily .it was a mixture of scanty desert growths -- dried cactus stalks; palo verde, miscel- lancous brush and some of the extremely heavy mesquite and ironwocd. Bob could not sce mach of it growing; he realized . that the villagers were making a definite sacrifice in the wood it- self, when they burned it in a worship ceremony. LJ * *» In due time a red cliff top to + the westward was suddenly "alarmed, The Drummers Start ill- uminated, as if a gigantic stage spotlight had been turned on. In that moment a new sound dom- inated the valley, and the (ourse of action everywhere was chang- ed. First a chorus of drums--the same toms-toms, Bob noted, that Hopi Indians used--reverberated throughout the canyon. It was a penetrating bass noise, alarming, heraldic, of great volume. OOM-OOM. OOM-OOM. OOM- © OOM, he First a series of quick double" notes. Bob snd 'Lissi 'observed that six brown drummers were poynding tom-toms four feet high or so, massive noisemakers on the roof of the chieftain's house it- self. The sound was frightening. Perhaps it was meant to be. The rhythm changed soon. OOM-O0OM, (pause) OOM, (pause) OOM-OOM. "This was . continued: for perh@ps a "quarter hour--two beats, one, then two again, and repeat, The white cou- ple had heard many a fanfare of _ drums in the paleface world, many a trumpeter's wild blare, but never had anything impressed them like this. "Remember what I told you, Bob Barry!' Lissa was becoming "If you love me you'll try to stop this senseless bus- iness." Bob nodded, in great earnest- ness. +"But maybe 1 can't, dar- ling! Our own lives may be eén- dangered if 1 try. The maidens may actually want to be sacri- ficed. I certainly do not. This is .'a delicate matter, and I'm trying to figure a way out of here grace- fully---and safely." "I's murder, Bob, and you know it." OOM-OOM. OOM. OOM-OOM. No more, wood was brought, but all wore . hssembling by now. And from a number of houses came men in fantastic costumes of . skins and paint, with all manner of ceremonial objects dangling from them. Without any sort of preliminary, these men, evidently high priests of some form signal- ed to the -drummers and the rhythm again changed. Now i: became 'a one, one-two-three beat: OOM-oom-oom-oom, OOM - ocom- oom-oom, with double emphasis on the first, done ratheér-slowly at the outset but gradually getting a little faster. It seemed to be perfect time for the extraordin- ary dances begun by the costum- ed ones, * Ll . Which.Is Te Die? The priests: stamped and: hop- ped and chanted and rattled the There's No istaking Their Nationality G Py & ES «The skating outfits carried by these tars easily identify them as' Canadians, Theee Canadian sailors in England with their sip with the Royal Navy evidently hope for a spot of hockey in time. off-duty - transferred to Brou for duty - sticks they held, and soon the vil lagers all were chanting too, to make a rumbling background of sound. This continued for at least half an hour, but stopped so ab- ruptly tHat 'Lissa almost jumped. The chieftain of the brown people walked to 'Lissa and Bob. He . made motions. . "This is the moment!" Bob whispered. "We've -got to make our choice! Now! Which maiden is to die. God, this is awful, Lissa!" "No, no! You can't. Do some- thing! Anything!" > Robert Barry swallowed, then took a deep breath, He was still without much hope, and he didn't dare"offend these people lest he and "Lissa themselves be sacri- ficed, But he determined to try the biggest bluff in his career. He turned ostentatiously to the sur, and mumbled a long jar- gon. He winked at 'Lissa, and ra'sed his hands to the sun, She did likewise. They sank to their knees. "Act it out!" Bob mumb- led. Lissa was trembling. Ignoring the four maidens, who had been brought out tied hand and foot, Bob kept pointing to the sun and talking steddily to the chief, gesticulating as impressive- ly as he knew how, but actually without meaning. He kept up this mumbo-jumbo for two or 'three. minutes. ' v. Then he looked imperiously at the chief and began a serious sign talk, as they had conversed at length the day before. Twice Bob had to resort to his pencil-- which the brown folk seemed to regard as magic anyway--but in time he got his thoughts across. . * . ' Playing A Hunch Suddenly then the chief issued a command to his people. Six or . eight hurried away, while the as- sembly waited, To fill in the-gap, Bob orated meaninglessly to the sun. When the messengers re- turned with live rabbits, live snakes, and other small animal, 'Lissa's curiosity popped. She hadn't spoken for nearly half an hour. "What is it, Bob?" she whis- pered. "What's happening?" "I'm playing a hunch. acting." Bob signed a bit more to the chief. Then surprisingly, he took one of the wild rabbits, killed ity skinned--if+with his pocket "knife, all with elaborate cere- mony. - Each piece of the carcass he placed on the great pile of wood, but he presented the dressed meat portion to- the - chief, instructing him to cook it. Then, Bob osten- tatiously cut the thongs that bound the maidens, and set them free. He signed to the chieftain and folded his arms, standing be- side 'Lissa with imperious mien, The chief, duly awed by it all, shouted excitedly then to his peo- ple, and the fire was lighted. Quickly there was a frenzy of yelling and jubilant dancing. The sacrificial maidens ran away to join their families. Danc- ing continued as the fire crackled higher and higher. The priests "chanted, the drummers pounded on their tom-toms. Hysterical gladness and gratitude seemed rampant there, in weirdest possi- ble" sound and motion. It was theatrical, intense. . "What _is it, Bob? Tell me! What did you do?' "Lissa clung to her lover's arm. Message From the God "] don't know where we go from here, sweetheart, but I think Keep we bluffed that one through. 1- told them we were messengers from the real sun god, and that he commanded an end of human sacrifice. I said this.tribe is small now, and no more people must be sacrificed from it, The maidens must bear children_ instead. In substitute, 1 explained, a live beast of thé" fields shomld be kill- ed, and its skin thrown on the fire, and the good meat eaten as a symbol of feasting and plenty. The sun god, I said, wants eter- nal happiness to reign here, not pain and blood and death." She shivered a little, and snug- gled closer, fascinated by the amazing pageantry béfore them. "0-oh Bob!" she murmured. "That's the way I feel too, 'Lissa darling." (To Be Continued) ~U. S.

SLIM LINES, FURS, PLAINNESS The general outlines for fall are there --slim lines, rich furs and fabrics, an absence of fussy detail. 'But fashion - still * needs something to talk about, a shot. in the arm for promotional pur- poses. Something like the hour- glass corset or the up-hair do of other seasons. Out of last trends, two seem likely to carry on jnto fall--the i.annish trend and the South American trend. AZTEC PRINTS - The mannish trend will be felt in college girl clothes--suits and sport things. Smith and Vassar started it by buying jackets in men's wéar shops. Style scouts took notice, and this fall every college shop will offer boyish" sack suits made up in masculine- looking tweeds. The South American trend was strong 2arly in the spring, faded for a whilé, and now is strong again. There are likely. to 'be more and more tambourine hats, black lace shawls, sombreros, Aztec prints. _ i "The Truth About Mother Hubbard ' A long-forgotten manuscript identified by the Bodleian Lib rary, Oxford, England, proves that Mother Hubbard, of nursery- rhyme fame, really did exist, Miss May Stubbington came across the, original manuscript of the fam- ous nursery rhyme while going over some old family papers. It was written in 1804 by Miss Sarah Martin, daughter of Sir Henry Martin, of Lockynge. So the rhyme, which is world-famous and thought by. many. to be centuries old is quite young.
