GO on WITH THE Story

Tarzan held a peculiar position in
the tribe They seemed to con
slider him one OF them and yet in
some way different. The older males
either ignored him entirely or else
hated him so vindictively that but
for his wondrous agility and speed
and the fierce protection Of the huge
Kala he would have been dispatched
at an early age.
Tublaf was his most consistent
enemy, but Il was through Tublat
that, when he was about IS. the per-
secution OF his enemies suddenly
ceased and he was left severely alone,
except on the occasions when one of
them ran amuck in the throes of
one OF those strange, wild fits Of
insane rage which attacks the males
OF many Of the fiercer animals of
the Jungle Then none was safe.
On the day that Tarzan estab-
Hshed his right to respect. the tribe
was gathered about a small natural
amphstheater which the Jungle had
left free from its entangling vines
and creepers In O. hollow amongst
som low hills.
The open space was almost cir
cular IN shape. Upon every hand
rose the mighty giants Of the un-
touched forest, with matted under
growth banked so closely between
the huge trunks that the only open
ing into the little, level arena was
through the upper branches OF the
trees.
Here. safe from interruption, the
tribe often gathered. In the center
OF the amhpitheater was one : Of
those strange earthen drums which
the anthropoids build for the queer
rites. the sounds of which men have
heard IN the Businesses Of the jungle,
but which none has ever witnessed.
Many travellers have seen the
drums OF the great apes, and some
have heard the sounds of their beat
ing and the noise of the wild, weird
revelry OF these first lords Of the
jungle, but Tarzan, Lord Greystoke,
is. doubtless, the only human being
who ever joined in the fierce. mad,
intoxicating revel of the Dum-Dum.
