Unexpected Arrival
T WAS a little difficult, meeting
to many people ah had known
only in her mother's letter, but
it was toon over for Anne,
She found Beth Huff looking
happier than the had expected,
Diana looking lest beautiful and
more human, young Larry Huff
roay of cheek and unvamped in
manner, Dr. Louis Martaine color
less and cold of eye. Philip
teemed a bit worn, the thought,
as it the responsibility of the
work during her fathers absence
waa proving too much for him.
Pete refused to stay even long
enough for a cocktail.
"But Til be back In day or
two," he tald with a special look
for Anne, "and I'll bring the stuff
the Emir gave you."
1 don't think I want It," she
replied.
"You may ril bring It and a
letter," he added. She had noticed
him looking at Philip with critical
eyes. The stoop of his narrow
shoulder, his fussy, nervous
manner making unfavorable
comparisons.
"This girl hasn't had much to
eat," he declared to tha others.
"You'd better feed her and put
her to bed." Anne felt ready for
bed. An eight-day fast, and then
on top of everything else the let.
down of finding her parents ab
sent Philip and the doctor each gave
her an arm and walked her to
the big tent that had been her
parents living quarters, weaay
It was covered with a fly of reeds
in preparation for the summer's
heat, one noticea a nauve aquai
ting beside the door. As they ap
proached he rose and bowed.
"Doddap!" the gasped. "How
did you get here?"
"I walked," be said simply.
Today?"
"Today. I look after you now."
"Did you come across the Bek-
kan Bula Depression from Arl-
shar?
She saw he didn't want to talk
about it, jut he answered. "I
came the shortest way."
"Then you passed by our camp,
Doddap. We saw you.. Why
didn't you stop?"
"Now I look after you," he
said, and that waa all she could
get out of him.
Diana remarked curiously,
"You seem to know this man."
"We met him on the desert."
Anne answered and let Beth lead
her into the tent. She sat down
on a cot. Some one took off her
shoes. Another made her com
fortabla with Dillows. The Chi
nese cook brought her a cup of
broth, and while the drank It,
Beth explained about tha lama's
arrival.
'The strangest thing," she said.
"Diana and I were planning a
tramp down to the dig. We
tteDDfd out on the porch and in
the space between two of the
tents we saw him striding across
the desert."
"What did he say?" demanded
her husband impatiently.
"If I heard what I think I
heard, he said. 'American clrl
comes through the air. She is
hungry. You make soup .
The others laughed again, but
thev were Duzzled. "Then." Beth
finished, "he walked over here
and squatted down by the tent
door as if he'd come home, and
began gnawing on a cheese he

The doctor turned to Anne.
"You spoke of meeting thia fel
low on the desert."
"That was more than a week
ago beyond Arishar. she an
awered. "But we may have seen
him pass our camp this morning
Doddap is a good little man.
You needn't be afraid of him."
She refused a second cup of
broth. For a moment the talk
died down. She realised they
were all curious to know just
what ner adventures had been.

Anne avoided everyone eyes

"What! Greaorv Sherwood?"
rrled Diana. Larry whistled.
Philip Oliver's brow clouded.
"That renegade!"
"Oh, say," protested Larry, "I
wouldn't go that far."
"He'a a thorough scoundrel,'
Philip persisted. "A scientist with
any sense of ethics doesn t inter,
(ere with another mail's expedi
tion "
Diana laughed a bit self-eon
seiously. "He may be a scoundrel
as a scientist, but as a man he
has his points. I was once en
gaged to him."
Anne looked at her with a
start. Beth asked, an edge to her
voire. "Why didn't vou marry
him?"
"I changed my mind. He's the
most headstrong man I ever knew
In my lite."
"And our enemy," laid Anne
"Not mine." denied Diana.
"Tha enemy of this expedi
tion." Diana shrugged. "It's liVe poli

Robert Drummy. 15, State In
dustrial school inmate, decided
to postpone the extraction of an
aching tooth. The youth hid In
a machine shed until the proper
time to return to the dormitory
He misjudged the "proper time"
and an alarm was Issued, with

"I tell you" Anna begaa
angrily.
Larry Interposed hastily,
speaking to Anne. "You say there
were two planes, and ha went
on to the Capital?"
"That's what Peta told me."
Then from our experience
with the Chinese governor he's in
jail by now. When your father
interviewed him and mentioned
ha might like to use an airplane
for further exploration the man
came close to ordering us all out
of the country. He Implied that
the gods, themselves, would not
be allowed to fly a plane in his
territory. He' forbidden u to
set up or use tha radio we
brought along.
The dnetor rose. "We must all
get out of here now and let Miss
Willard rest"
But tell me mora about
father and mother," Anne pro
tested. "What are our plana?
We'll tell you later," he said
firmly. "Now you must rest"
The lama had taken It upon
himself to raise Just the right
part of the tent wall to secure
DroDer ventilation. Now he
crouched down outside the door
snd began a low, haunting chant
to the muffled accompaniment of
his little drum. Anne signined
that he was to be unmolested.
She lay there a while, wide eyed.
feeling lost and lorsaken, long
ing unbearably for her parents:
heart broken. Finally she drifted
into sleep.
Strange Prophecy
ANNE remained in bed three
davs. Now that she had given
up she seemed unutterably weary
all over. The doctor and Beth
could scarcely rouse her to take
food. She hated the return to con
sciousness, for only in sleep did
the pain leave her heart one naa
not known that a person could
hate and love with such violence
at the same time. She called her
self all Imaginable names but it
did no good. Hour alter nour stow
tears continued to well into her
eyes.
Not until Philip told her In his
nervous way that no further word
had come from her parents did
she rouse herself.
"Could something have hap
pened to them?" she cried sharp
ly, sitting up.
It was night, the big gasoline
lantern lighted. Every one had
come to her tent.
We really don t know much
about it" he answered slowly.
They ve written only once.

demanded.

Anne began watching the oth
