REUNION
CHAPTER XIII

Some minutes later, there could
have been seen, on the fiat roof
top of the coffee house, silhouetted
black against the dazzling moon
lit sky, Negro beating a wooden
drum with scientific rhythm, send
ing its tone waves droning and
sobbing into the east, where other
drums took up the telling-until,
finally, 1t reached the ears of
little pygmy medicine man who
was squatting in a hut by the
side of delirious American.
Zaman Khan'S knowledge of
psychology was crude, yet shrewd
Had he been within arms length
of the Mann MAN, he would have
bullied and threatened him, even
beaten him with the kurbash. But
distance was the little savage's
safety. Therefore, flattery was in
dictated; and most f1attering and
soul-satisfying was the drum mes
sage which called the pygmy
greatest among all the medicine
men, called him a wizard without
peer whom the trees obeyed and
the rocks and the winds, called
him sorcerer more powerful than
the elephant in mating time, wiser
than the owl and as much to be
feared as the swamp buffalo.
Would the Niam-Niam being
also generous and great-hearted.
do his best for the foreigner whose
fate rested in the hollow of his
hand? Would he, Furthermore,
send back by drum talk a descrip-
ton of the location of the nearest
jungle path connecting with the
hut where the sick man lay? He,
Zaman Khan, who was dispatch
ing this message and was the
medicine mans most devoted
slave. knew that the knowledge of
these jungle trails was a secret
lore, restricted to the mighty ones
among the bush folk. So he gave
oath that - by Allah and by Allah
and by Allah = he would not use
the secret, precious knowledge ex-
cept this once, to hasten to the
side of his friend.
The MANN listened.
There is none greater than

derness. Even the Moslems &C
knowledge me master. Hereafter
my tribesmen shall call me Lion,
shall give to me whatever tribute
I demand. Thus there is this
woman whom I have desired for
a long time"
He smiled. Presently, once
more, the drum talk spanned the
distance; and, half an hour later,
with Nancy in the drivers seat
and the Afghan beside her, study
ing another roughly drawn map,
the Ford clanked and wheezed in
to the African night - a night
which was drawing in a SHIN

son in the Army or to overlook the
lonesome silence of the house when
her husband was at work.
So she went out and got herself a
job. 1t is her first experience in the
business world-and she loves it.
1t not only takes care of her
working hours, it gives her some
thing to think about when she isn't
at work.
And she is making friends sch
never would have met in she hadn't
become working woman.
Her husband, who even five years
ago would have found a dozen rea-
sons for objecting to her getting
job, didn't offer one, when she told
him proudly that she had applied
for position and had been hired on
the spot.
HUSBAND is PROUD
He, like most men, has a new re-
spect for women who are able to get
and hold jobs-since he knows how
dependent America is today on its
woman power.
OF course, he leases her a little.
But it is the kind of teasing that is
founded on pride.
He is proud of her-and If the
truth were known, she is probably
just little bit proud of herself.
After all she proved long time
ago that she could handle the job
of horhemaking as we'll as anyone.
Now she is proving her ability in an
entirely different kind of job.
Her experience is something for
any woman whose children are
grown to think about Something for
their husbands to think about, too.

Oatmeal Dessert
Is "Poor Mans
Sweet"
BY GAYNOR MADDOX
Nea Staff Writer

Rolled oats and 100 per cent
WholeWheat flour are particularly
important in wartime menus be-
cause they are rich in vegetable
protein. Regular rolled oats and
quick-cookHg rolled oats contain
1863 per cent protein, and 100 per
cent wholewheat flour contains
1912 per cent protein.
Lets make pigs of ourselves
Sounds rather unmannerly, and al
most impossible in the face of grow
ing food Shortages" says Charlotte
Adams, popular magazine and radio
authority on food. However, in
pushing the pig away from the
trough, and taking over his rations
such as oats, corn, etc., that's in a
measure what we propose to do. But
there is going to be a difference
between our consumption of grains
and teh porker's. We're going to
make a new man out of cereal. It's
going to me more than breakfast
food for us-it's going to be varied

Mrs. Adams, author of You'll

serts to brighten up your war

Victory Garden Harvest
Lowers Vegetable Prices
BY BETTY MACDONALD
NEA Staff Correspondent

Washington, July 3l.-Depart-
ment of Agriculture experts can
only offer "guestimates" of the ef-
feet on the commercial markets OF
100000 Victory Gardens, but
there's one thing they do know:
There will be increased buying
opportunities in the near future for
people who weren't able to plant
Victory Gardens, because Americas
amateur war farmers are producing
enough for their own needs. This
is not true, however, of fruit, which
will probably be scarce and expen-
sive this autumn.
Meanwhile, government nutrition
lists are campaigning for immediate
planting of root crops, (onions,
beets, carrots, rutabagas) for home
storage this fall. Latest pamphlets
on home storage can now be OBJ
tanned form the Department OF
Agriculture.
