thing-there could be only one rea-
son he wanted her to meet his
mother.
The next day Saturday. Ellen
went through her duties at the store
in happy daze. A thousand times
she sought the mirror to look at
her bright eyes and glowing cheeks.
She looked often at the clock as
well, convinced that IL o'clock never
would again in her life be so long in
coming.
Indeed, long-suffering Lorene be-
came somewhat irritated with her
assistant.
you'll never make a buyer if you
don't bone up on your fashion mag
azines more carefully Lorene said
sharply. "Tll bet you've turned a
dozen pages without seeing a thing.
They only thing you seem to see is

Ellen laughed guiltily.
"In try to do better" she prom
ised. But II have date and
I'm sort of excited
IF told Steven that you'd gone
blind because you were lunching
with him I'm sure he'd be hattered,"
Lorene observed dryly. Il must say
you're not much help as an assist
ant"
Ellen opened her mouth, but left
the words unsaid. She did not cor
rect Lorenes impression, but after
that she paid more attention to
what she was doing.
She succeeded in surprising Lo-
rene by the sudden intelligent in
terest she took in misses fashions.
At 11:50, however, she closed the
magazine without a sigh, replaced
the dresses she had taken from
stock and began the delightful
process of arranging her perky felt
hat at its most becoming angle.
Lorene snorted and left the room.
ELLEN was dressed for the street,
Il satisfied at last with her ap-
pearance, when messenger boy
knocked and then pushed through
the half open door.
Sign here" he said.
Ellen signed and, wondering, took
the envelope from him and tore it
open. She read a few lines, a few
sentences. Then felt the paper
crunch in her hands and watched
the walls of the room recede.

He must not only reach the tree first. but climb
speedily aloft before the thing could reach up
and pluck him down. If it reared up on its

Larry exulted and then was gone.
ELLEN stayed for a long time
Il with the wind and with the
rain. When she went inside her
eyes were still bright with remem-
bered kisses, her heart kept up its
hard and happy beat.
Oh, the miracle Of love! What
an exciting and thrilling and col
orful thing life was. She loved the
rain outside, the music and the
gaiety inside. There was nothing
critical now about her mood.
She sparkled and shone and
danced like one possessed. For she
knew that Larry meant to tell her
tomorrow! 1t could be only one

Larry's letter fell to the floor.
Every word was scared in her mind.
He had written:
ELLEN, dear: I'm afraid our en-
gagement today is all off. I don't
know when I'll get to see you again,
my dear. Things are in such mess.
I know most Of it is my own fault
but that doesn't mend matters.
Please try to understand until
can explain. Won't you? The pos
ing, I'm afraid, is off, too, for the
present. But please believe that the
minute it is possible I will see you
again. LARRY"
Ellen mechanically reached for
her handbag and for her gloves.
She was alone in the room. She
could hear herself sobbing and felt
a desperate, agonized pain in her
heart.
She knew that she could not go
out on the street with tears rain
ing down her face. She fumbled
for her handkerchief and sat down.
She sat there for a long time.
When she rose the tears were gone.
She felt everything was gone. Her
preparations for the afternoon were
useless now.
It was hard to remember the
shining-eyed girl who had powdered
and primped and spent such an
endless time fixing hat.
She had no place to go and so
she went home. She bought
newspaper to read on the subway.
When she turned to the society
page, she found what somehow she
had expected there.
Elizabeth Bowes had returned
from Europe.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-03-04

She dared not call aloud, for the gryfs have
keen ears, and come at the sound of human
voice. Descended from a long lire of hunters,
Pan-at-lee. moving up-Wind, easily tracked
Tarzan until she reached a clearing. There
two things happened. She caught sight of the
ape-man bending over a dead deer and
deafening roar sounded almost beside her.
Terrified beyond description, the sound brought
her into instant action Up the nearest tree
to the highest sustaining branches she went.
Then she looked down.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-03-04

When Pan-at-lee awoke she was at loss
to account for Tarzans disappearance Then
it dawned upon her that he had gone down
into Kor-ul-gryf in search of food Rushing
to the cave ledge. she caught glimpse of him
entering the jungle. Pan-at-lee was panic
stricken for she knew he was stranger, and
so did not realize the dangers that lay in
that gorge of terrors. Forgetful of her own
peril and fears, the girl started after him to
warn him.

Monstrous and awe inspiring was the thing
that Tarzan's surprised eyes saw charging him.
Il angered instead of terrified the ape-man
for at once he saw it was beyond even his
powers to combat, which meant it would cause
him to lose his KILL and Tarzan was hungry.
To, remain was to suffer annihilation-there
was but single alternative. That was flight
swift and inmediatel And Tarzan fed, but
he carried the carcass Of Bara, the deer,
with him.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE
ELLEN'S heart burned with a
Il sort of never-ending fire. She
was bitter, rebellious, tired, and I'M
happy. Above all, she was be-
wildered.
It was unthinkable that she
should have been SO close to hap
piness, only to miss it in the end.
Larry must have meant to tell her
that his engagement was broken.
Why else should he ask her to meet
his mother? Nevertheless there was
the cruel, cruel note. Why had he
written it? What circumstance had
caused him to change so suddenly?
To the wretched girl, only one
answer suggested itself. The return
of Elizabeth Bowes from Europe.
Ellen flung herself into work at
the store; flung herself with wild
abandon into her duties at Dream
land. She would forget Larry; she
must.
She tried to fill every moment, SO
there would be no time to think, no
time to remember that she had lost
the man she had never owned. But
there were times when she was
shaken with envy and jealousy.
While these thoughts seethed and
boiled in her mind the girl laughed
and danced and chartered. How she
talked these breathleSs August
nights to men whose faces faded to
nothingness even as they turned
away!
Tony, the gamin-like little hostess
who had become Ellen's best friend
was not deceived by this gayety.
There's lots of fish left in the
sea" she ventured to say once.
1 don't know what you mean,
/ Tony" Ellen had replied, lifting
brilliant eyes.
Never mind" said Tony and
dropped the matter.
Some one else was unwilling to
drop matters so easily. Steven Bar
clay had been watching the change
in Ellen, had seen her growing pale
and listless even as she burned with
energy.
Steven had suffered with her. To-
ward the middle of the second
week, he called Ellen into his Office.
lie spoke directly.
Il thought you trusted me-" he
began.
But I do, sir" Ellen protested
uncomfortably.
Then don't call me SIR
"It's just habit. I won't do it
again, sir"
They both laughed. After that,
it was easier. All at once Ellen
saw Steven Barclay again, saw him
in all his kindness and gentleness
for the first time in weeks.

be considered together. The fer

largely an individual problem with

BASIN PLANS
PASS BUBEAU
Reclamation D e pit. A p
proves Huge Grand
Coulee Dam

The reclamation bureau report
ed that the development of Column
bia river basin in Washington as a
great power and irrigation pro-
ject was financially and physical
ly feasible.
Envisioned in the bulky findings
of reclamation engineers was a
dam across the Columbia river
just above Grand Coulee which
would be $50 feet high, and 400
feet long, forming a lake extend
ing $50 miles to the Canadian bor-
der.
Power to Pay Cost
Grand Coulee is a dry canyon
separated from the river by a
mountain range. The engineers
would pierce the mountain with a
tunnel and divert the water for
irrigation purposes into this cam
yon, damming it at both ends to
make a semi-natural reservoir.
The cost of the dam, and its
power plant, the report said, would
be repaid within so years with 4
percent interest, through the sale
of power. In addition, about so
percent of the cost of irrigation
development could be paid from
power revenues.
Mead Praises Project
The report was made to Secre-
tary Wilbur, who will transmit it
to congress. He probably will rec
ommend appropriations for draw
ing up preliminary plans and con-
tinued investigation.
The total investment was esti-
mated at s394,155,000. There was
possibility the total amount to
be expended by the government
would be only $3.50, 100000, due to
power revenues which would come
in before irrigation development
could be completed.
A. A total of 100000 acres OF
land, described by DR.. Elwood
Mead, chief of the reclamation
bureau, as the finest unreclaimed
area in America, would be devel-
oped by the project.
