FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1940 69 Rita Motioc: Hanson YESTERDAY: Lynn Britton, beautiful American girl des- tined so far as-she-can tell to marry the Prince of Shani Lun, is at present dodging Chinese revolutionists and trudging aeross the plain afoot. Temu Darin, her “escort,” has lost his plane in a storm; and now must guard Lynmyand arrange to send their unwelcome companion, Peggy Telford, back to the coast. Chapter 25 Strange Blessing [EN turned to Temu. “Do you expect to walk Peg- gy and me all the way to Delun?” He had’ relieved Chan of some of his burden. “I hope I won't walk you all the distance. Your friend is leav- | ing the first chance I have to send } her back.” _Lynn’s shoulders squared. “I'd | like to see you send her and keep | me without unpleasant conse- quences to your government. notice you don’t always secure your own way.” He agreed. “If 1 had my way now, we wouldn’t be here. But. since we are here—” He looked at her and smiled. She under- stood; he intended to make the best of it. Peggy caught up with them in her_absurd moccasins. and hung | to Temu’s arm for a while. They Passed a woman and her old} mother, the latter mincing along on little goattike feet which were bound “good old days.” They carried their possessions in bundles on their backs, and herded ahead of them a blind girl carrying a younger child pick-a-back. After crossing the wide plateau they came to a ridge of green hills. Temu stopped’ a tall, red- robed lama riding a tiny donkey. The priest lowered his feet, per= mitting the little animal to walk from under him and begin crop- ping the short green grass at the edge of the trail. The lama explained that his monastery was located up a side canyon a bit and insisted that Temu and his party take refuge within the religious enclosure. The monks were Mongols and Tibetans, good fighters when they needed to fight and respected for the fact by the Moslems, who were inclined to leave them alone. They could send a fast messen- ger on to the Chinese military stronghold at Tusin witk the tele- grams Temu wished to dispatch: the monastery would be blessed | by their presence: Lynn suspected that Temu did not translate everything that had passed between them. He looked at the two weary girls and ac- cepted the invitation. The moi turning to Lynn, bowed deep! and brought her his donkey to ride. It did not seem incredible to im, evidently, that a goddess should be met on the highway fleeing before the revolution. The gesture touched and ‘warmed her heart. Her thoughts flew to a woman in Palestine who had ridden a donkey, and _sus- pecting a certain state of affairs, she gave the animal to Peggy Temu helped her mount, and giving the little donkey a slap, | sent him jogging up the path he had just come. “You need the lift-as much as your friend,” he said mildly. “But since you are a goddess, I suppose you can do as you please.” Lynn told him she was glad he had learned one thing about her. “As you please within limits,” he smilingly amended. The monastery houses, with their flat roofs and ladders for mounting to them, climbed the canyon side in a way that re- minded Lynn vaguely of a Pueblo village, except for the surround- ing wall. They were taken to an apart ment in the grand lama’s house near the upper wall, overlooking the rest of the inclosure. The several rooms opening into each other were clean and bare except for the stove, with its usual short- legged table, and the altar niches with their. images and offering vessels. In the largest room was a table set with food. The grand lama served them with tea, Chinese cakes; pickled bean pods, and dates. Ashe left, he knelt before Lynn and asked if she would bless him. “Touch him with something,” Temu suggested. Happiness Gus picked up Peggy’s parasol and touched him lightly. The simple, ‘devout, old ‘fellow turned and went out, his face shining with .an inner light as if indeed he _had ‘been blessed. Temu watched Lynn’s eyes fol- low him, a strangely gentle ex- pression on her face. “You see what it means to be the Tara,” he said in a low voice. “To be loved by an untold number of people and remembered in their Prayers, never criticized, never questioned, never thought of ex- cept in love and devotion.” “It is wonderful,” she admitted softly: “But I am quite-sure that I am not worthy of anything like that.” “You ‘are not the judge.” Chancame in from the meal he and Bula had eaten in their own room and sef about heating. a basin’of water. Bula followed, and in a corner brought out his knit- ting. The‘ head lama returned with | !¢4. a living Buddha, a boy of seven or eight who had 2 boit on his Temw lanced the infection and bandaged it. “He was bern my cousin,” the SUBSCRIBE FOR THE CITIZEN—2ée WEEKLY. 1} in remembrance of the} lama explained. “But he'is-the re- incarnation of my elder brother who died eight years ago.”. Tears came to the old man’s eyes. “I could not bear to see him die a second time.” “We'll take good care of this,” Temu assured him, “and it’ will soon be healed.” He turned and translated to the girls what the jPriest had said. Lynn looked around at the peo- ple in the room, Peggy, Chan, Temu, Bula, the high lama, the little Buddha, and a grease- grimed attendant monk who had come in with the latter two. “T wonder,” she asked in a mis- chievous mood, “if any of my for- mer relatives are present?” Peggy giggled. “Bula may bea husband: from a former inearna- tion.. He stares at you adoringly. enough.” “If he were a husband he would |probably be irying to order me arcund:” “You've said it!” Peggy’ re= turned with heartfelt agreement. _Temu laughed. “You American girls! You need to be: reborn Hindus some time and taught proper reverence and apprecia- tion for husbands.” He cleared the room of the rest ‘of the men: “Perhaps that’s already’ hap- pened to us once too’ often,” Lynn retorted maliciously, “and the worms have turned.” “Two worms!” he hooted. Peggy burst into tears. “I want to go home!” she sobbed. “We'll send you back as‘soon as | possible,” Temu promised. x ight’s sleep will do you | good, n assured her, “and |you shall have a bath if wehave nothing more for a tub than a teacup.” | Chan managed to find a copper | kettle and fill it with hot water. | Many soft, padded quilts of Chi- nese satin were brought in to jmake a comfortable bed. Lynn stayed with Peggy, tucked her in, jand sat beside her for a while af- terwards “I suppose it will be just my luck to have twins,” sighed Peggy. Lynn was. enthusiastic. “That will be fun.” “For whom?” Peggy moaned. “For everybody. I always want- ed to be twins myself.” Peggy turned her’ face to the wall and shuddered. “It seems to |me that you get into enough out- jlandish predicaments as it is. Why double the liabilities? And why did I ever take you for a model?” Lynn laughed and gave her a reassuring pat. “You've stopped imitating me now and gone me one better, darling. Or should I say two?” “Leave me,” Peggy ordered. “You're too darned cheerful.” Lynn slipped into her coat and jentered the courtyard. Temu came striding up the path towards her, “Where have you been?” she | asked. “Sending off a couple of dis- patch runners. Do you care to sit on the roof for a while?” She fol- lowed him up -he ladder and dropped down against a chimney pot. He lay down beside her. A spiral of smoke curled up }from an incense bowl near them, dispersing the odor of juniper leaves for the demi-gods who nourished themselves upon sweet fragrance. Below, near the tem- |ple, a drum throbbed insistently. They rested until the drum had | ceased and so reminded them that |the hour was late. Lynn stirred reluctantly. | “We must go in,” she sighed. |. He leaned towards her. “Has it been a happy evening, Lynn?” |. “Heavenly. You've taught me things about companionship I’ve jnever known before.” New Disaster MESSENGER returned from Tusin next morning with vord that the telegraph line had been torn up for a long distance. |No messages could be sent out. |The revolution was spreading jnorth into Sinkiang and west to the Tibetan border. Practically all trade and travel had ceased ex- |cept for that of the fleeing ref- ugees. | . “That's that,” said Temu. Peggy ,; clouded up; Lynn looked grave. | They were eating breakfast of tea and little cylinders of oaten |bread baked by Chan on a stick jover the coals.

The monks may entertain their women relatives and friends. Some have wives.” He rose. “The lamas tell me jthat refugees are beginning to jcome here to the mi é | Many of them are sick or injured.
