PAGE FOUR THE ROAD by Rita Mehl YESTERDAY: Lovely Lynn Britton is being taken to the Mongolian principality of Shant Lun, there to marry the power= ful Prince himself. She does not want to go, and although she will not cdmit it to herself, she had rather marry the Prince’s messenger than anybody else she knows. Now she and an Ameri- can friend she has met casually in a nearby city, are captured by Mohammedans who hope to trade them for food to the monks of a nearby fortified lamassery. Chapter 27 Rescue Party ‘Te sun was setting behind the western hills before the three were missed from the monas- tery. The gates had been closed for the night and the old abbot had sent to inquire if the child were in the visitor’s apartment. Temu and Chan, just return- ing, discovered the girls’ ab- sence; Temu noticed they had worn their wraps and taken the binoculars from the shelf. Noth- ing else was missing. “Run away?” asked Chan Temu shook his head. “Gone scouting.” 4s they went into the courtyard, others appeared looking for the child. Then a serving monk re- membered seeing him, the Tara, and the red-headed one walk up the narrow alley between the houses to the north gate. Bula, who had been hanging around the stables all day, ap- peared and told of noticing the trio on the hill back of the mon- astery early in the afternoon. No one had seen them return. The tremulous, old abbot began to weep lest he had lost his elder brother by death a second time. Temu ordered Bula to saddle horses and follow him while ke and one of the monks hastened toward the north gate. : In the fading light they climbed the hill to the spot where Lynn, attempting to return, had been intercepted. Bula, riding one horse and leading two others, overtook them. Temu and the lama mounted and followed the tracks around the hill till they came upon the boy’s scull cap lying on the ground with a clod inside to hold it against the wind. Under the clod lay a} iece of paper bearing Arabic let- fers torn from a poster depicting a view of the Kaaba. “Mohammedans,” Temu mut-| tered, looking across the hills westward to the Moslem strong-} hold looming against the fading skyline like a grim and forbid- ding isle of darkness. Bula was for going on, just they three, and storming the strong- hold. “They’d like us to try it,” commented Temu. “The whole torce at the monastery could not take that fort with the weapons we have. And perhaps that is not | the thing we want to do.” He sat for a while in deep thought, the others watching him | patiently. Presently, he roused | and spoke: “Come with me!”| ‘hen, whirling his horse, he has- tined back to the path and| through the north gate. | Stopping a moment, he reas-| sured the old abbot, and ordered every available fi ng man to} mount and follow him. Then he rode on down the canyon to the} plain, where, as he expected, al regiment of Chinese infantry on its way from the south to} atten ten the garrison at Tusin, had bivouacked for the night. They were rather a sorry lot of conscripts; half in uniform and the others wearing their worka- day blue. | ie commander had already} dropped into his customary opium stupor. His aide, Major Tsin, an alert and soldiery young fellow, saluted Temu and walked with him among the men _ squatted| about their tiny fires. Few had mew and decent weapons, al- though they had brought along an ancient cannon, but no ammnui- tion. Temu_presented credentials to} Major Tsin and spoke crisply. “I shall take command of your men for the time being. They are to make a forced march west to the} Mohammedan stronghold of Kiah- yu. We'll leave a guard about your commander’s tent.” The major spoke doubtfully. “These men are untrained, None of their ancestors, when called upon to bear arms, were ever ex- pected to march or fight at night.” “They'll obey me.” Born to Command ‘ At a second quick scrutiny of Temu's face the major seemed inclined to agree. There were men who could mould circumstances; Temu Darin was one of these men. i, | The next instant the company | ef Mongols and Tibetans from} the lamassery in cavalry forma-| tion broke from the mouth of the canyon and came cantering across the plain in warlike array. They had thrown aside their religous robes and taken up gay banners, swords, and rifles hastily blessed in the temple. At sight of them the Chinese soldiers seized their weapons and began to huddle. Temu jumped to a commanding position on the cannon carriage and spoke swiftly in Chinese. There was no muttering, no de- lay—only the temporary confu- sion of a timid people hastening | to obey the commands of one they Tecognized as leader. A detach- ment of horsemen took charge of the cannon. Another was detailed to stop at the monastery for what- ever could be used as ammunition | . for the weapons. Temu gave the command and the soldiers began their forced march with lama outriders sur- roundi:g them. Morning saw the Mohammedan | fortress surrounded by a rein-! TO SHANT LON forcement of foot soldiers and patrolled by mounted men, the hs piece of artillery trained on ie gate in the south wall. Temu a the command to fire. The rumble of falling brick and the shriek of splintering wood followed the dull roar of the can- non. An upper corner of the gate disappeared in a jagged hole and | a part of the tower wall f away. Surprised defenders armed with ancient flintlocks swarmed the walls dismayed at the sight. Dis- mayed—not at the sight of foot soldiers backed by mounted men completely surrounding the ' stronghold, but at the one piece of artillery that would rip out the strongest wooden gate and shatter brick walls. _ Temu raised a flag of truce. The simple but civilized Chinese un- derstood this kind of warfare de- spite the strain of fanatical Turk- oman blood in their veins. The leaders met in the roadway be- fore the gate and arranged the terms of surrender. Major Tsin, with a small detail of soldiers, would take control of the town. The people had never known such a peace. There was no de- mand that their chiefs be executed or property be confiscated. The hungry would be fed, the naked clothed. Disarmed, the inhabitants tight retain their homes and ge about their business. Followed by a picked guard of mounted men, Temu rode into the town. Rescue T the sound of the cannon that morning there had been a fight between dissenting factions. One group desired the prisoners killed at once in a frantic, senseless feel- ing of revenge. Another wished to keep them for bargaining pur- poses. The latter won in the scuffle that followed and managed to conduct the captives inside the courtyard and to secure the gate against the mob crying for their death. Peggy began weeping afresh at the sight of Temu, but the strange, set silence in Lynn’s face really frightened him. He put an affectionate arm around the little Buddha and patted Peggy’s shoul- der, assuring her that everything was all right now, though his eyes were all for Lynn. He led them | to a room in the magistrate’s house and had servants bring water for bathing, clean clothing, and food. Later Lynn set the breakfast table, garbed in a rich, blue satin gown from the wardrobe of the magistrate’s number-one wife. Peggy in green, and little Tsong in yellow, had somewhat recov- ered their spirits. Peggy begecd Temu to annihilate the village. “These people are worse than beasts!” she cried vehemently. “They’re not fit to live!” Lynn quietly toyed with her food, her blue eyes shadowed, her face colorless, the chill of an in- finite desolation in her bones. Watching her, Temu explained to the other: “I am a soldier, and in this age, the work of a soldier is to pre- serve life and protect the people. I grant you they are beasts—poor, starving beasts at bay—but you were protected by powers you do not comprehend.” Peggy sniffed. “That’s being sentimental. One would think you didn’t have courage to kill them.” “Courage?” he inquired ab- sently. “There are two kinds of courage. I hope I have either as the occasion may require.” He smiled and touched Lynn’s arm to attract her attention, wishing to draw her interest away from that inner obsession that seemed to possess her. “Lynn,” he asked, “haven't you seen me display both the canes of violence and the courage of perseverance?” “Yes, Temu,” she answered pas- sively. “Then, defend me with Peggy.” She smiled vaguely and said nothing. He rose and sent the others away to rest and ordered the table removed. Then he came and sat on the.edge of the kang beside Lynn. “What is it?” he asked gently. She raised her eyelids as if they were leaded and gave him a half- blind, trance-like stare. “Those pitiful folk,” she mur- mured. ae: grass and the soil of the hills. Clawing and fighting and wailing lest they lose their pitiful lives.” “Go on,” he said. “Assailed by misery and haunt- | ed by visions of madness and death.” She looked down at her cold hands folded on her lap. “I joined them last night; ate with them, felt their sorrow and des- pair. And somehow, I’ve lost the will to live. Something strange has happened to me. I can’t come | back.” A spasm of fear crossed Temu’s face. He took one of her hands in his strong, warm clasp. “Listen to me, Lynn. Life and I claim you. We call you back. You are tired; you’ve come emotional experiences that id try people calloused and accus- tomed to them. Last night you identified yourself too closely with these suffering humens-and let the spirit of despair take hold of you. Now it is morning; the sun is shining and I am here to feed —— protect you.

Wot it do any good shook you—if I beat you?” Two tears rolled down her cheeks to the corners of her mouth. “I am beaten, Temu.” “Tm not,” he said, and took her in his arms, kissing her ayes, her mouth, her throat. He drew her back against the cushions and held her close to his strong, warm body, cajoling her back to life with tender words and caresses. great iron-studded wooden Beautiful Costumes } For ‘Imaginary Invalid’ Lavish French colonial cos- | tumes of silk and velvet in bril-} -: SOCIETY $:-: C.
