DENNIS WHEATLE

to follow the other two parties over the
desert by plane
That evening, at Zwartveldt, Michael
warned Patricia that the man Wisdom had
been recognized by Sandy to be Philbeach.
When Patricia told her step-father he was
furiously incredulous or pretended to be.
Next morning Michael and his half-brothers
started off in their OK wagon. accompanied by
Ombulike, John Longs original guide whom
they had contacted the previous day. Pa
tricia and her step-father, with Wisdom and
his two aides, Schwartz and Plettenberg, fol-
lowed the Benefits trail in their own OK
wagon And Sandy and the Van Nekerks took
off in their plane.
Fourteen days later. in a valley at the
entrance to wild mountainous region, Sandy
and the Van Niekerks barely escaped death
in forced Landing. The Bennetts wagon had
disappeared into the mountains. And Phil
beach, discarding his pseudonym and reveal
ing his sinister purposes, refused to follow the
Bennetts. He told Henry he planned to await
the Benefits return and then rob them of
their diamonds
Michael and his half-brothers had mean
while reached the mouth of an underground
river -. fearsome- looking tunnel through
which Ombulike said Old John Long had
entered the Fabulous Valley. On small, frail
raft, George and Michael set out to brave
the unknown dangers of the rushing torrent

THE STORY so FAR

0oFN THOMAS LONG left his huge fortune
to friends - and former mistresses. To
- his relatives he left only letter, and
three strange objects - necklace of monkey
skulls, lavishly carved knobkerrie; and a
leopard-skin kaross. The letter revealed the
source of the dead mans wealth "a secret
valley of diamonds deep in the heart of
the kalahari Desert. The necklace, knob
kerie, and leopard-skin were symbols by
which those of his relatives who dared under
take the venture might trace the guides who
had accompanied him on his perilous Journey.
The heirs drew lots for the symbols The neck
lace fell to Patricia, step daughter of John
Longs brother Henry; the leopard-skin
kaross to Gertrude kane-Swift, his sister,
who entrusted it to her son Michael; and the
knobkerrie to Sandy McDiamid. nephew.
Sandy was robbed of his knobkerrie by
Roger Philbeach, one of the benefciaries of
the will from whom Sandy had sought infor-
nation about his Uncle John.
One evening, six weeks later, however, all
the heirs except Michaels mother met at
Zwartveldt village on the southern edge of
the kalahar;. Mutual distrust had divided
them into three parties: Henry Long, Patricia,
and man known as Philip Wisdom whom
Henry had engaged in London as courier;
Michael and his two halfbrothers, Ernest
and George Bennett; and Sandy who, un-
known to the Others, had joined forces with
Cornelius and Sarie Van Nekerk, South
Africans, whose father had been mentioned
in John Longs will This last group planned

might hope to halt the wild progress of their
rickety float. With a sudden cry George
lurched against Michael who sprawled for
ward, dropping his torch with a splash into
the water. Fortunately George still kept his
grasp on his torch. And in its beam Michael
glimpsed, with horrible feeling of repulsion.
the thing which had caused his half-brother
to cry out - huge bats which, with spread
wings, were futtering towards them AS
George ducked to dodge one brute the beam
of his torch jerked upwards to the low roof
above him and to his horror Michael saw
that there we're scores of the loathsome crea-
lures hanging head downward from it within
a few inches of his hair.
The roof was lower now. It would have
been impossible for them to stand upright
since 1t was no more than four feet above the
seething water. Both men slipped down to
their full length on the raft and, while George
grlpped his torch with both hands, Michael
STAYED their frail craft off from the solid walls
of rock as they were raced around corner
after corner.
In the bright shaft of light to the front of
them flat head with gaping jaws suddenly
appeared. The raft caught it as it swept past
and the huge water-snake disappeared from
view. hanging bat struck Michaels head:
another f1uttered between them, and third
brushed Georges shoulder. The roof was

along SO swiftly that neither man had thought
of his torch. Now, as they swept through the
opening of the cave, Michael seized his and
flashed the beam before them
The opening arch of the cave had been at
least twenty feet above the waters edge but,
to Michaels horror, it was apparent that as
the raft rushed on, the ceiling became lower
and lower. The thought flashed into his mind
that they had no knowledge of the exact time
OF year at which John Long had ventured into
this fearsome place. Perhaps at that season
the river had been lower, and now, the waters
might actually touch the roof - at some
point In this case, Michael knew, their fate
would be sealed.
1t was impossible to turn back. The sides
OF the cave were sheer; no projecting crag
offered the least handhold by which they

while Ernest stayed behind with the wagon
and natives. Carrying Michael and George,
the raft sped with astonishing speed through
the entrance of the tunnel And in another
instant they were racing along on the bosom
of the underground river in Stygian darkness.
Where would it lead them? Would they ever
return?

Can We Afford To?

For the first nine months o
this wear. the nations estimated
fire loss amounted to about $50
600 600 advance over the loss sus'
tajned in the same period last year.
We have become accustomed tC
thinking in vast figures these days
and we say billion m or
easily than W e used to say
a m llioD. But the fact remains
that $22O,000,0O0is a lot of money
as a little analysis will prove.
Suppose that instead of burning
ND that S220.000,000, we had put
it to productive use. What could
it have done?
We hear much of the housing
shortage ii this country. The
90ney we dave TO the gods Of fire
in nine months could have built
$4,000 homes at a cost of S4 ZOO
each homes which would have COM
fortably housed 100000 to 100000
people
There are millions Of men IN our
country who lack steady jobs. Had
we put that S220,O00000 in pro-
ductive enterprise, it would have
Given more than 100000 men work
for a solid year at the rate of 500
a month.
Many parts of the country are
still in need Of good roads. If we
had put that $4,000, 600 In pro-
ductive enterprise, it would nave
built 44,OOO miles of highway cost
ine $4,000 per mile a road long
enough to 90 back and fourth across
the continent almost Is times,
Finally, to give an idea OF the
maenitude of the sum destroyed by
fire in less than year, $22O,oOo,OOO
represents interest ar 5 per cent
for twelve months on the vast sum
of S4 ,40O,000,OOO!
Is fire prevention worthwhile? Is
/ worth the little time and effort
that is required of every individual
