THE SERVANT WHO BECAME A MAN, AND THE PROUD LADY WHO BECAME A WOMAN BOTH JUST MALE AND FEMALE! So Fate seized them a snobbish family of British bluebloods. Cast them on an island where the voice of the world was lost. Tumbled them, lord and butler, lady and scullery maid, into a common mass of males and females. Laughed at their former glories, their former handicaps. Pointed to an untamed jungle, ruled only by wild beasts, and said, "Now we shall see who rules."
