the Karapur Jungle, forty-five
miles from the city of Mysore in
Southern India His father,
Sheik Ibraham, was a mahOut in
the service of the Maharajah.
But the father died when Sabu
was a small child and the Ma
harajah paid him a pension of
two rupees a month.
Sabu became sensational
screen star when he was discov-
cred by Korda in this jungle
and was given the title role in
Elephant Boy" At the time the
youngster couldn't speak a word
of English but teacher was Sc
cured and in an incredibly short
time he learned the language

him.

FAREWELL TO ABAS
CHAPTER XIII


Bill Talcott's change of man
Aer had one immediate if unfore-
seen effect. 1t scared the day
lights out of Professor Constan-
tine.
Apparently Martha Swenson
had said something to the Pro-
fessor about Bill Tolcot's being
a "poleetical' prisoner, and he
had studiously remained out of
the way. But as a member of the
group assembled on the pier he
couldn't very well avoid Talcott,
and when orders cracked from
the deposed boss's lips he acted
as if he expected knives and
blackjacks TO appear in an en-
core of his entry to Abas Island.
When the launch came along
side, the Professor was first
board, slowing himself as far for
ward as the confines of space
would allow. And there he bar
ricaded himself with luggage,
muttering and munching pills.
June Paterson, unpredictable
creature, also suffered an abrupt
transformation. Came d o w n
from her high horse, lowered her
nose and chin, inspected Bill
Talcott with new light in her
wide gray-blue eyes. II made him
uncomfortable, because each
time he happened TO glance in
her direction she would blush
and glance hastily away. This
was a new problem; vaguely he
wished she would keep on act
ing rs q spoiled brat because that
way he knew, or thought he
did, how to handle her.
Martha Swenson's attitude had
changed, too. Because she knew
he was in trouble of some kind
her sympathies were aroused.
There was new glow Of warmth
In her dark eyes and by accident

was not going away, that in truth
he had never really been there.
Physically, yes. His body had ex-
listed on Abas Island. He had fol-
lowed a routine, had worked,
produced, eaten, slept and some
times played. But he had never
truly been a part of Abas.
He had brought his own world
with him, his customs, traditions,
thoughts and inhibitiOnS. That
world he had never left behind
had worn II all the while as a suit
of armor OF Abas he had never
been and could never be a part,
He and his kind could come here
for a hundred or a thousand
years, but AbaS would always
belong to the men of whom huge,
patient. Chlldlikc Tomas was a
symbolic figure.
The great brassy ball of the
sun dropped into the sea. Brief
twilight and then the moon,
which had been high in the heav-
ems since 3 o'clock, took on
ghostly radiance. Low clouds
moved swiftly in the brisk
northeast trades.
Under the expert hand Of Sc
basticn the sturdy launch ate up
the miles in quiet, vibrationless
performance. What time will
we get in2' Halscy asked Bill
TaIcott in his first direct APP
proach since quitting the pier.
I'D say at 4 o'clock or So
-Four, viii we be able to get
hotel accommodations
+ Il don't know. At worst, we
can pass the few remaining hours
in the launch.
dune Paterson had lighted a
cigaret and behind its glowing
tip her eyes smoldered. You
don't seem TO worry much about
the comfort of your guests" she
murmurCd i'm another abrupt
shift TO flippancy.
In any event we can't land
until we've had permission from
the harbormaSter," Talcott an
swcred patiently. Wen have 10
