THE GOD S OF

By EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS
Author of the Tarzan Stories
CIlAPTnn XXI (Continued).
NO sooner had Carthorls and the others
Joined mo than wo commenced tho
trahsportatlon of our men through tho sub
merged pnsar;o'to tho mouth of the gang
wavs which ted from the submarine pool
at tho templo end of tho watery tunnel to
tho pits of Irsub,
Many trips were lemllrcrt b,lt nt '-1st n"
stood anfely together again at the begin
ning of tho end of our quest. I'lvo thou
sand strong wo were, all seasoned fighting
men of the most warliko race of tho red
men of llirsooin.
An CarlhorlH atotio knew the hidden vvnvn
of tho tunnels, wo could not dlldo tho
party nnd nttaclt tho templo at several
points Ht once, as would hae been most
desirable nnd so It was decided that ho
lead us all as quloklv as ho could to a
point as near tho temple's centre ns pos
sible As wo were about to leave tho pool and
enter tho corridors nn officer called my
attention to tho waters upon which tho
submarine floated At first they seemed
to bo merely ngltnted ns from tho move
ment of some grc.it bodj boneith tho sur
face, and I at onco conjectured that an
other siibmarlno was rising to tho surfneo
In pursuit of us; but presently It becamo np
pirent that tho level of tho waters was
rising, not with extreme rapidity, but very
surely, and that Boon thoy would overflow
tho sides of tho pool nnd submcrgo tho floor
of tho chamber.
For a moment I did not fully grasp tho
terrlbto Import of tho slowly rising waters
It wan Carthorls who realized tho full
meaning of tho thing Ha t.uiso and tho
reason for It.
"Hastol" ho cried. "If wo delay wo all
aro lost. Tho pumps of Omean have been
stopped They would "drown us lllto rats
In a trap Wo must reach tho upper levels
of tho pits In ndvanco of tho flood or wo
shall never reach them Come "
"Lend tho way, Carthorls," I cried "Wo
shall follow."
At my command tho jotith leaped Into
ono of tho corridors, and In columns of
twos, nnd In good order, tho soldiers fol
lowed him, each cmnpiny entering tho cor
ridor only at tho commmd of Its dwai or
captain
Boforo tho last company filed, from tho
chamber tho water was riiMo deep, and
that the men wero nervous was qulto
evident. Entirely unaccustomed to water
except In quantities mifllcluit for drink
ing and bathing purposes, tho red Martian 1
Instinctively shrank from It In such form
ldablo depths nnd menacing caullvlty.
That thoy hold themselves eo vvetj.1 whllo
it swirled and eddied about their ankles
opoko well for their bravery and their
discipline.
I w.as tho last to lcavo tho chamber
of tho submarine, nnd ns I followed tho
rear of tho column toward tho corridor
I moved through water to my knees
Tho corridor, too, wns flooded to the
eaino depth, for Its floor was on a level
with the floor of tho chamber from which
It led; nor was thero any pcrceptlblo rlso
for many yards
Tho inarch of the troops through tho
corridor was as rapid ns was consistent
with tho number of men thnt moved
through bo narrow a passage, but it wns
not nmplo to permit us to gain appreciably
on tho pursuing tide
Ab I cast about for some means of s iv

men, I saw a diverging corridor whkn

and smoke wero to bo feared a thousand
times more than tho water, nnd so I seized
upon tho flrst gallery which led out of and
up from tho suffocating smoko that was
engulfing us
Again I stood to ono side whllo tho
soldiers hastened through on the new way
Somo 2000 must havo passed nt a rapid
run when the stream ceased, but I was not
suro that all had been rescued who had not
passed tho point of origin of tho flames;
nnd po to nsure mvpclt that no poor devil
was left behind to die a horrible death tin
succored, I ran quickly up tho gallery
In tho direction of tho flames, which I
could now seo burning with a dull glow
far ahead
It was hot and stifling work, hut nt Inst
I reached a point where tho flro lit up tho
corridor suffl. lently for mo to seo that no
soldier of Helium lay between mo nnd tho
conflagration what wns In It or upon tho
far Bldo I could not know nor could any
man havo passed through that seothlng
hell of chemicals and lived to learn
Having satisfied my sense of duty, I
turned nnd ran rnpldlv back to tho cor
ridor through which my men had passed.
To my horror, however, I found that my
retreat In this direction had been blocked
across tho mouth of the corridor stood a
masslvo stool grating that had evidently
been lowered from Its resting placo nbovo
for tho purposo of effectually cutting oft
my escape
That our principal movements wero
known to tho First Ilorn I could not have
doubted In view of tho attack of tho fleet
upon us tho day before, nor could tho
Btopplng of tho pumps of Omonn at tho
psjchologleat moment havo been due to
chance, nor tho starting of a chemical
combustion within tho one corridor through
which wo were ndvanclng upon tho Temple
of Issus been duo to nught than well
calculated design
And now tho dropping of tho steel gnto
to pen mo effectually between flro nnd
flood seemed to Indicate that Invisible cyoB
wero upon us at every moment. "What
chanco had I then to rescue Dejali Thorls
wero I to be competled to light foes who
never showed thenipclves?
Tho smoko from tho flra wns forcing mo
further and further hack down tho cor
ridor toward tho waters which I could hear
surging through tho darkness
"With my men had gono tho Inst torch,
nor was this corridor lighted by tho radi

Finally I felt tho lapping waters about
my feet Tho smoke was thick behind mc.
My suffering was Intense.
Thero seemed but ono thing to do, nnd
that to chooso tho easier death which con
fronted mo, and so I moved on down tho
corridor until tho cold watcn of Amean
closed about mc, nnd I swam on through
utter blacknosj toward what?
To my surprlso I ran against a blank
wall beforo I reached a point where tho
waters camo to the rsof of tho corridor.
Could I bo mistaken? I felt round No, I
had como to tho main corrhlor and still
thero was a breathing spaco between tho
surface of tho water and tho rock celling

Prince Mnrmolade Takes Tulip Heart
By Farmer Smith
Appearing at tho cavo whero old Granny

I'rlnco alighted from tho cloud
"May little Tulip Heart como to Cloud
land nnd bo my princess?" Prlnco Marma
lade asked Granny Grump
"What will you glvo mo for her?" snapped
old Granny Grump
"I will glvo ou a cloud of pearls and
sapphires," said the prlnco
'Is that moro than two rivers of gold?"
asked Granny Grump
"Much more" said tho Trince.
Granny Grump then made the prince
promise to give her two clouds of pearls and
sapphires When tho prince had promised,
ho said to Tulip Heart and Granny Grump;
"Get on my cloud now, but remember
whllo wo aro flying to Cloudland )ou must
not look down."
Tulip Heart shut her eea and held her
llttlo hands over them as the cloud roseup
and up into tho sky She could hear all the
animals weeping at her departure nnd want
ed to wavo down to them but she remem
bered the beautiful prince's warning
Tho cloud was away abov o the trees, when
old Granny Grump heard Zzzzzzzzzzz, the
kind of the snow birds, call up to her.
"I will give jou two wagonloads of dia
monds for little Tulip Heart "
uranny Grump dropped on her knees and
looked down over tho brim of the cloud to
see who It was promising two wagonloads
of diamonds
The moment greedy old Granny Grump
looked down she tumbled off the cloud and
fell down and down nnd down Into the
lllue Forest of Alaska

OFFICIALS OF LIBRARY
DO NOT FAVOR CHANGE
OF TREE' TO 'PUBLIC'
Board JMembers Show Little En
thusiasm for Proposal Made
by Municipal Research
Bureau
FEAR LEGAL TROUBLE
Tho proposal to chango tho word '"free"
to "puhllo" In tho tltlo of tho Free Library
of Philadelphia, made yesterday In n bul
letin Issued by tho Bureau of Municipal
Ilesearch, has not been received trlth any
frroat enthusiasm by tho members of tho
Library Hoard of Trustees.
Not a single member of tho board could
ho found today who would view thu Bug
Bestlon as a proRresslvo step. On tho
contrary, almost any number ,ot arguments,
they said, could bo found against such a
cluinRo Tho most significant objection
wns given by Jolin Ashhurst, librarian of,
the Institution.
Prior to 1805, when the branches of tho
llhrnry wero under tho Board of Education,
tho nrst word of tho tltlo was "public,"
according to Mr. Ashhurst. Tho Changs
was mndo to "free" when tho first publlo
bequest to tho Institution was mado In tho
w 111 of dcorgo S Pepper, Tho bequest read
to tho Krco Library of Philadelphia," and
it was to avoid legal complications, Mr.
Ashhurst believes, which might havo re
sulted from applying tho funds to a "publlo
library" that tho word "frco" was employed.
The library Is now Incorporated nnd over
the cntranco of each of the 18 branches
tho words "Kreo Library" tiro cut In stone
To make any change now, Mr. Ashhurst
said, would mean tho formality of chang
ing the Incorporated title nnd tho expense
of rcruttlng tho letters over tho cntranco
of each branch library.
