CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT

nAN and the girl in white were
II almost abreast of Cherry be-
fore they recognized her. Dan called
out, Hello Cherry. Waiting long?"
There was a bright circle of red
in each of Cherry's cheeks. Hello"
she said evenly, determined to seem
as casual as he had been. I've
been here while. l really haven't
noticed how long"
The other girl smiled. ct don't
believe you remember me, Mrs.
Phillips" she said. I'm Connie
Randolph. We met at the Casey's
party-the night you were married"
How do you do. Yes, of course
I remember"
The slight note of frigidity was
not to be missed. The other girl
hesitated moment. Then she said,
ITS awfully nice to see you again.
Well must hurry or I'll miss my
bus"
She directed her smile at Dan,
turned and was gone.
Look here, Cherry, you might
have been little more cordial to
old Connie"
"Old Conniel Is that what you
call her? I don't think you need to
give me lessons in etiquet Dan. She
didn't even know I was talking -
looking at you all the timel"
Cherry! For Lord sake"
She must not let him see that
her lips were trembling. She must
not let the tears come. To steady
herself, Cherry turned away.
Dams hand was on her arm.
Honestly, honey" he said in soft
er tone, Il don't understand. Is
anything wrong? Gosh - you've
been away so long and it's so good
TO see you"
You didn't seem to think much
about me when that Connie was
here!"
Dams laugh was a short derisive
shout. Don't tell me you're jealous,
Cherry Not OF old ConnieI Oh,
that's too ridiculous!"
She whirled and mist made the
brown eyes larger, more luminous.
She forgot that her lips were
trembling.
She said, I've been so lonesome!
I've counted on this meeting so.
And then you came with-that other

never would stand for IT"
Then you'll have to manage
without his knowing. I'm not going
to have you practically in rags. You
look a sight Besides, you really
need some dresses"
Cherry laughed. "I'm sure
don't know what for" she said.
We're not going anywhere. Dams

Only after Tarzans smile had treasured
them all did the pygmies cease their agitated
shouts and stop brandishing their weapons. An
instant later the officer saw why the ape-man
had raised him aloft. Then he called down
to the others below him and Tarzan guessed
from their voices and manner that the ap-
preaching riders were friends. So it proved
to be few minutes later. Soon the ape-man
and his escort were surrounded by hundreds of
