Of admiration as her eyes rested upon

attitude as menacing and as defiant as
that of el adrea himself.
The lion was quite close TO him now
but a few PAGES intervened-he
crouched and then. with a deafening
roar. he sprang.
AS Numa, ell adrea. launched himself
with widespread paws and barred fangs
he looked TO find this puny man as
easy prey as the score who had gone
down beneath him In the past. To him
man was a clumsy. slow moving. de-
fenseless creature-he had little respect
for him.
But this time he found that he was
pitted against a creature as agile and
as quick as himself. When his mighty
frame struck the spot where the man
had been he was no longer there.
The watching girl vas transfixed by
astonishment at the ease with which
the crouching man eluded the great
paws. And now, o Allah. He had
rushed in behind ell adrea's shoulder
even before the beast could turf and
had grasped him by the name. The
lion reared upon his hind legs like a
horse-TarZan had known that he
would do this. and he was ready. A
giant arm encircled the black named
throat and once. twice. a dozen times.
a sharp blade darted in and out of the
bay black side behind the left shoulder.
Frantic were the leaps OF Numa:
awful his roars Of rage and pain. But
the giant upon his back could not be
dislodged or brought within reach Of
fangs or talons in the brief interval of
life that remained to the lord with the
large head. He was quite dead when
TarZan of the Apes released his hold
and arose. Then the daughter of the
desert witnessed a thing that terrified
her even more than had the presence
of ell adrea. The man placed a foot
upon the carcass Of his kill and, with
his handsome face raised toward the
full moon, gave voice to the most
frightful cry that ever smote upon her
ears.
With a little cry of fear she shrank
away from him. She thought that the
fearful strain of the encounter had
driven him mad. AS the last note of
that fiendish challenge died out in the
diminishing echoes of the distance the
man dropped his eyes until they rested
upon the girl.
Instantly his face was lighted by the
kindly smile that was ample assurance
of his sanity. and the girl breathed
freely nee again. smiling in response.
What of man are you?" she
asked. The thing you have done is

that?"
Tarzan flushed. ut is because l for

not try tt explain further. for it al
ways seemed to him that a woman
must look with loathing upon n who
was yet so nearly a beast. Together
they continued their journey. The sun
was an hour high when they anne out
into the desert again beyond the noun
tains. Beside a little rivulet they
found the girls horses grazing. They
had come this far on their way home
and, with the cause of their fear no
longer present, had stopped to feed.
With little trouble Tarzan and the girl
caught them and. mounting, rode out
into the desert toward the douar Of
Sheik Kadour ben Saden.

they came In safety about 0 o'clock to

men he was already mounted to 60 in

His JOY at the safe return Of his
daughter was only equaled by his
gratitude to Tarzan for bringing her
safely to him through the dangers of
the night, and his thankfulness. that
she had been In time to save the man

was not sorry that chance had played

Well Known Lecturers To
Speak On Agriculture

Some time ago the people of How

toned the College of Agriculture,
Ohio State University for a one
week Agricultural Extension School
during the coming winter. Word has
just been received from Clark S.
Wheeler, Supervisor of Extension
Schools, that the petition has been
granted. The date of the school is
November 1920.
Only about half the counties in the
state were granted Extension Schools
this year SO that places which did Sc
cure schools are congratulating them
selves. Members Of the faculty of
the College of Agriculture will give
instruction throughout the week in
farm crops, soil fertility and animal
husbandry. An additional instruc-
tor will be sent for one day to give
talks on poultry. Two women from
the domestic science department of
the college will lecture on Home
Making and give demonstrations.

MAY SUBMIT
To Voters Proposition o.
County Experiment Farm

A petition is being circulated by
Mr.. Elmer Davis, well known farm
er of this community, asking the
county commissioners to submit to
the people the proposition of a county
experiment farm. The farm, If Sc
cured, will consist of 80 acres, the site
to be approved by the Ohio State
Agricultural Commission.
While farmers constantly receive
agricultural bulletins, the concrete
demonstration of the matter usually
contained in these pamphlets will be
of much more value. AS only 300 sig
natures are required, the proposition
will probably be submitted to the
voters
