One of the boys ANOIF. slips away from her. goes into the ,r *ter and is carried out bra "s*a kitty." NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER FOUR WHEN the whirling water caught Angie he thought at first that It tt -s Just an extra big wave tosstn • Ivm about. But it didn't pass over him ard leave him free to C3‘"h his breath. Instead it seemed to pick him up and carry him swiftly along with it, with cruel playfulness. The harder he fought, the more it laughed at him, the precocious kitty of the sea to* ,ng with its prey. Beryl's first aid work completed, she set about to count noses. That is when Angie was missed. "Where is he?” she asked, anxiously glancing up and down the beach. “Look for him, everyone,” and then she sent her roll cry, as she called it ringing out in a strong full tone that was surprisingly clear and sweet. Berylhad a voice, even though her family wouldn’t admit it. As its echoes died away, the boys took it up and flung it forth again. Beryl strained her ears to catch an answer but none came. Fear gripped her then, for the boys had promised never to go out of hearing of the roll cry without her permission. Angie wouldn’t have done it wilfully; she was certain of that. He’d wandered away or—she turned in 6harp alarm to the water. Lacy waves broke at her feet where she came to a pause to scan the ocean that spread before her, bland today and smiling. The wash of the water seemed to purr invitingly, teaslngly promising to be good. Its serenity was like a false face to Beryl. She saw it as a hungry monster, greedy to devour little boys. "Angie, Angie,” she called frantically and waded deeper—until the waves made standing uncertain. No good going out with nothing of Angie in sight. She turned and started to run along the beach. Then she stopped and called back to the children to string out behind her and not to move, only to watch and relay word if they caught a glimpse of the missing boy. They understood. This was a game they’d played In fun many times before. Today it might mean something in earnest. u a a THEY watched the water with eyes wide to popping and eould scarcely breathe for their excitement. The strongest ran with Beryl and stopped only as she called out their names. Then they rested them- j •reives on the sand and stood like vtatues, on guard. With them all stationed behind he:* Beryl,too, paused to search the water anew with eyes that were widened with anxiety. Again she started the roll cry, and again there was no answer. Far down the beach she could see a party of men. She called at the top of her voice as she ran toward them, but the distance was too great for them to hear, or if they heard, they though it all a part of the noise a bunch of kids were making. Suddenly a piercing call to her halted Beryl. She wheeled and saw that the line of boys was no longer motionless and facing seaward, but was signaling wildly to her to come back. As the message reached her, passed from one shrill relayer to another, she realized that something had been discovered in the water, something they wanted her to know about. But was it Angie? She could not tell; they were too excited—the message had got ’jumbled. As she flew back to the starting place she prayed that Mike, left there, hadn’t made a mistake and called her back in vain. She must have divers—she couldn’t send the boys out to do that. "What is it? Have you found

him?” she gasped as she ran past each trying to tell what he thought the line. They fell in with her, of Mike's discovery. But Beryl would not stop to listen until she reached Mike. "There, look! Way out,” he shrilled, pointing toward an object that Beryl could not discern at first. Mike began Jumping up and down. "It's somebody swimming,” he screamed. • Then Beryl made out a bit of a head, and saw that an arm flashed rhythmically up and down In the water, bringing its owner nearer the shore with each rapid stroke. "Oh Mike,” she wailed, "that isn't Angie.”' "I know. Captain Beryl, but he’s got somethin’ and I thing it’s Angie It’s somethin’ he got in the water.” "He’s sure got somethin' ail right,” another boy contributed, "unless he’s only got one arm, for that’s all he’s swimming with.” a a a BERYL, too, had noticed this fact and hope sprang to life in her terror-filled heart. If it were Angie they’d have a fair chance to revive him. He hadn’t been gone so long—it wasn’t hopeless. She said this over and over, unconsciously speaking aloud, while she watched and waited for the swimmer to come near enough for them to identify the burden he supported. They could see clearly now that he was handicapped with a burden. "Fool!” Beryl exclaimed all at oftce, and ran out to dive head-on into a foaming breaker. In a flash she had seen that the swimmer was tiring, and there she’d stood, safely waiting for him to do- her rescue work. Her expletive referred to herself. The boys wondered, but remained where she had left them. She did not see that It was Tommy she was going to help until she got close to him. The next second she saw Angie, still and white, on his back, his chin over Tommy’s arm. "Give him to me,” she ordered and swam into position to take the boy. "Are you good for it.?” Tommy gasped. "Yes,” Beryl said. “Let’s go.” Tommy was glad to be relieved. He’d beenswimming fast. But he did not let her get ahead of him, lest she get into trouble and lose her hold on Angie. There was some hard swimming still ahead of them. Before she reached Tommy, Beryl had cleared the breakers and now she must swim back through them, with Angie a dead weight on one arm. Tommy watched her anxiously. She did not try to speed, neither did she lose time unnecessarily—time that might mean life or death for Angie. She simply kept her headland swam as fast as she could with safety. Tommy’s strength began to return and when .the heaviest breakers crashed over Beryl and bore her under he was beside her to keep Angie’s body righted and afloat. ft n a THE boys met them in water waist high and helped to carrj 7 their unfortunate comrade beyond the water’s reach. Tommy, spent and breathless, cast himself full length upon the sand for a few seconds to recover sufficiently to assist in the efforts to revive Angie. He found that. Beryl had placed the little chap face downward, his forehead on one arm, the other stretched out from his side, and that she was astride Angie’s back, working as skillfully as she was able to force the water from his lungs and set him to breathing again. 1 ommy put a hand on her shoulder. “I’ll do that.” he said gruffly. "You go for a doctor.” Beryl didn’t need to ask if he knew how. She remembered a day on the beach when they’d practiced it, until Irene had turned up her nose at the undignified performance and made them self-conscious. She got up without a word and ran to her car. Fearfully she attempted to start the motor. Woulcf this be one of the times she'd have to crank it? She hardly dared breathe until it was safely going. And then when she was congratulating herself on a lucky break a mean hissing sound warned her of unexpected trouble.
A flat! Well, she couldn’t stop for it. Goodby tire. She tore along, as fast as the car in its disabled condition could be made to go and still it kept on the road. Presently she heard a sound that was not new to her. It came from the rear. She did not slacken her speed but the sound continued to draw hearer. At last it came: "Get over there!” The cool voice of the law. "Listen, officer,” she pleaded as a uniformed individual on a motorcycle beside her car reached fr a summons, "I know I'm not Mrs. Lindbergh or anybody like that. You don’t have to ask me. But I am on a matter of life or death. Back there at the beach there’s a kid that’s been drowned. I'm going for a doctor.” "Yeah?” "Please. Where does the nearest doctor live? Take my number and then get a doctor, quick. I’ll wait here and go back with him.” nun THE officer looked her over and decided she was not drunk. And sober she certainly wouldn't be driving for pleasure as she had been, practically on three wheels. Besides, she was dripping wet. She must have been at the beach, all right. Nevertheless he took the number of her car. “I’ll get you a doctor,” he said soberly. "But see that you stay right here until I come tack.” Beryl nodded. “You’ll hurry?” she begged. In her mind, as a silent, unbearable accusation, was the picture of a small white face still against the sand. If that was to be the way it would look the last time she was ever to see it. , . Beryl’s heart shrank into a small hard lump that burned like fire. And it stayed like that while she waited endlessly for the officer to return. * (To Be Continued) Film Device Invented.

Confusion held Flora Hawkes only momentarily. Presently she explained that she had come io Africa with her companions engaged in scientific research. '•Because." she remarked, “I had been in Africa with you and Lord Greystoke and so knew something about this section." Wholly unsuspicious, Lady Greystoke called Usula, who was in charge of the Wazirt. “Two hundred west coast blacks are coming after these people,” she said, “and we shall have to fight to defend them."

Only a moment after this, Luvini’s forces broke into view. At sight of the glistening warriors ready to receive them, Luvini's followers halted. . . . He, seeing the inferior numbers of the enemy, demanded the whites be handed over to him. He accompanied his demand with fantastic, grotesque antics, shaking his fist and waving his rifle. His warriors imitated him, yelling and shrieking as they worked themselves into the frenzy of excitement that would give ..them the courage necessary to charge.

The Waziri behind the boma wall, schooled and disciplined by Tarzan of the Apes, had long since discarded these preliminaries so dear to the hearts of other warlike tribes. Instead, they stood stolid and grim, awaiting the coming of the foe. Lady Greystoke issued orders, telling the three whites, all armed, to take places among the Waziri. She spoke as one accustomed to command. “Flora and I will remain in the back of the camp," she said, “near that large tree. Do not fire until they attack.”

Their movements, in the light of the campfire, were plainly seen by Luvini. And also to that other watcher from the foliage of the very tree beneath which Flora and Jane Clayton now took refuge. Luvini had not come to fight. He had come to capture Flora Hawkes and, accordingly. he made a plan. While.his men were occupying the attention of the Waziri, he took several blacks to the rear of the camp, intending by the ruse to capture the girl his savage hear’ was set upon.
