PAGE FOUR THE ROAD TO SAAN LON by Rita_Moht YESTERDAY: Lynn Britton and her half-brother Dick have fled a Mongolian temple in which some of the lamas have apparently recognized her as the reincarnation of the God- dess Tara. The two are hiding in the gatehouse of the temple, watching the crowd milling about in the compound. Fright and fascination disturb Lynn ale ec Hanson She went peaceably, but won- dering what was in his mind.

Sherdock and his handsome es- cort mounted their horses, led by the commanding officer astride a gray Arabian, tall and magnifi- cent in comparison with the Mon- gol ponies that followed him. The guard threw the gate wide open for the approaching cavalcade which dashed through, and halted with the horses pawing the air while the riders glanced over the empty field before speeding down the road that led to the walled city of Pai Shu. A moment later Dick and Lynn were ou! le the gate of the Tem- ple of Three Joyous Reasons and it had closed firmly behind them. more to it than the escapade in the temple. The whole affair had been queer since their meeting in Peiping, the first one in many years. It was quite evident that he was disappointed to find her independent and self-sufficient, and not expecting him to become her guardian and arbiter of her fate, as he had apparently hoped. She glanced at her trunks and bags stacked under the -parch- ment window, at the freshly pa- pered walls, the clean floor with its strip of matting. A very pleas- ant Chinese inn, but she wished she could have a bath. Why had Dick whisked her through Peiping and off up here to this border village instead of taking her to Pai Shu where there must be a European hotel? That he had something to tell her now seemed a thin excuse for all this. Perhaps her friends and relatives were right in trying to discourage her from coming.

That Dick had started out bad- ly as a young man she well knew. She had been a child of five when he ran away to evade an embez- zlement charge. The disgrace broke his father’s heart. But Dick had written with such genuine remorse for the sorrow he had brought on the family that Lynn was deeply touched. It seemed that a chance newspaper picture of her, his little half-sis- ter grown up, had prompted him to communicate with his family despite his intention never to do so. Letter From Afar (Be photograph had been taken during her Junior League so- cial service work and was first published in a San Francisco newspaper. As a result of the re- production of this picture of a smiling, tender-eyed American girl holding a pair of Chinese twin babies in her arms Lynn had received a good many letters. But the happiest return had been the word from her brother. At the time he was in Delun, the capital of Shani Lun, trying to negotiate a mining concession with the Prince. The interview had gone badly until he happened to glance at a newspaper lying on one side of the desk with the pic- | ture folded out as if the Prince | had been looking at it. Gazing | more closely at the caption he saw the name Lynn Britton. “That's my sister!” he had said. ince became interested at once, and after scrutinizing Dick sharply, seemed to realize he told the truth. The Prince then sent for his paternal uncle, Sher- |dock Fuyeh, head of the state lamassery, his mother, a Chinese princess, and his aunt, a Mongol duchess. The picture proved to be an open sesame for Dick. Even though he did not secure the con- cession, he received prerequisites perhaps more valuable. His third letter urged that Lynn visit them. “They've had the grand lama cast your horoscope,” he wrote. “And I understand it is very fa- vorable or they would never have invited you.” Then he went on in a more serious vein, regretting all |the years they had been apart, that it was his place to look after his little sister now, to help her |plan her future. He promised to take very good care of her. To be continued Plans Set For- Draft Dance the at big the Affair is Junior School ance music y and His Spicy program will be played by Beachcombers.
