Now Earl Ii had grown old in the
service of the mighty Hot Shu and he
much desired to spread the few re-
naming years of his life in peace and
to do some penance for the many
heads he had caused to fall in his days
of wrath.
And so he thought of plan to ap-
pease the great Moon of Moons, and
also save the remainder of the heather
gold worshipers on the continent of
Europe, and do his friends the Yam
KEGS a good turn at the same time.
And so he bowed and said:
30 mighty queen of Moons, whose
voice is like the song of the pewee,
whose eyes cause the stars to fall from
the heavens in envy of their brightness,
whose beauty would drive the summer
girl to nunnery or the new woman to
a hennery, give ear unto thy most
humble servant and let thy great wis
dom understand his weak words. Ye
have said that all Europe shall be
swept clean of this heathen race who
have for thousands of years caused
blood and carnage to devast this fair
land, where the only Son of Sons has
his throne.
'For thousands of years they have
fought and robbed each other. and the
poor, weak tribes whom they met in
their hunts after gold and slaves, they
have left to mourn and weep, until at
last the great dragons of China had to
be taken from the secret city, where
they had been hidden ever since the
great moon God sent the plan for their
construction to Kin va Wan, over
eight thousand years ago.
"Now O mighty Moon of Moons L
advise that thou wouldst not destroy
the remainder of these heather: but
instead, command them to. leave this
continent and never come to these
shores again, or death will be their
reward for disobedience. Now across
the great sea there is another land
where the Yankee lives; and although
they are mighty gold hunters, they are
nearly as good as a Chinaman when
they receive good political education.
"Now, o humming bird of the sun
flowers, these Yankees have lots of
bad land in their country, and if we
drive these heather across the sea to
them, they will sell them homesteads
in the swamp lands in the south, or
farms where the playful cyclone takes
in the harvest"
And when Earl Ii described the
gentle gambols of the Yankee cyclone,
and the soothing tune of the Jersey
skeeters, she smiled happy smile and
winked at Old Ii until the poor old
man was shocked.
And the great Hot Shu decided to
take Earl Li's advice and she ordered
Kin va to come with his air dragons
for service. And she commanded Earl
LII TO take command and to go to
France, Germany and all the other
nations who lived upon the continent
of Europe and were called Christians
and command them to leave the east
ern world within one year or they
would be destroyed by the fire and
smoke of the great booms. And all
the ships of the world were pressed
into service, and they built great RATS
so that they could save all the people.
And in the eleventh month all the
heather gold worshipers of Europe
had left its shores and had arrived in
the Yankees land. And the mighty
Son of Sons caused an edict to be
printed in all the known languages of
the world, and sent a thousand air
