 Farzan of the 8th brought to you from out the pages of Edgar Wright borrows exciting books Deep in the forest fastness Farzan sits on the hollow mound of earth that is the dumb dumb of the great 8th Majesticly he presides over the tribal meeting of his brothers the 8th before him comes Tana whimpering Tana complains that Gunto her mate has bitten her on the side You're the one going to Guy a girl Tana Tarzan asks Gunto what he means by biting Tana the great ape sidles slowly toward Tarzan Gunto complains that Tana is lazy. She will not bring him beetles will not scratch his back She's gone from the tribe for hours at a time in short She's not paying sufficient attention to the mate who protects her in times of trouble Meeters you talk Tana Tarzan lectures them both on their duties toward one another Tana must mend her ways and Gunto must not bite Tana anymore or else Tarzan will give him a taste of the gleaming night the ape's fear Gunto growls deep in his throat and ambles away Tana whimpers and retires to the shade of a spreading tree Before the feet of justice shuffles mongo an old ape whose fighting days are passed Through toothless gums. He mumbles that pacla the sullen brooding ape who recently killed one of bulgani's tribe is missing from his home Ludo Tarzan questions the old fellow, but mongo can give no further information Tarzan calls aloud to the tribe asking for information of any who know of pacla's whereabouts But none can tell him Tarzan's raw wrinkles in meditation Once before pacla had run amok and left a trail of devastation in his wake The apes are silent as they see their leader lost in thought Quickly Tarzan dismisses his thoughts and signals the next complainant to step forward While Tarzan presides at the apes council Jane Porter her father Clayton and Philander discuss the ape man as they strengthen the defenses of their hut I think this is the most extraordinary thing I ever saw or even figured out Certainly is the ejector jammed on my rifle just as I was ready to fire the second shot at the door Well the brute charge I caught my foot in the brine and before the bore could get to knew this fellow Whoever he is landed on the animal's back and in 30 seconds it was dead But as soon as Tarzan puzzled me is why did he bring it here? I felt like a fool trying to talk english when all the time I knew he didn't understand me So I pointed to the bore then opened my mouth and made pretence of eating Well a sensible I'd call it then what then he pointed in the direction of the hut picked up the kill and disappeared in the tree I had been inside the hut doing I don't remember what and I went to the door to see if you were coming Well there I found the bore and about 10 minutes you arrived. Did you see him? I can't be sure I suspected I can't say why That our jungle friend had brought it I looked up into the tree and for a moment I thought I saw a thief But a minute later it was gone so I couldn't be sure in all probability with him you saw Evidently while he doesn't mind helping us he objects to being seen that I think is natural We've invented his retreating while he doesn't go all together like it. He tolerates it. Yes, Jane I think you've hit the nail on the head By the way, where's your father? Mr. Flandre closed up the cheeks of the hut as you suggested and then he and daddy went off to fetch water They ought to be back any minute now. Did they take rifles? They took a rifle I suggested that one act is a lookout. I was afraid that if they both took rifles, they both get shot if that is possible Somewhere I can't be sure where it's a moment I have read that when two people are carrying an object If they will only break tip, they will find the loom to easier to bear. Yes, yes, sir But in this instance assuming for the sake of argument the A bucket of water as an object I'll show you the difference in our Perspective statues would offset that benefit. Hello, daddy Triple is back with luck. We'll have roast boar for dinner. Splendid, my dear Oh, it's heavy. Where should we put this this water? I messed and the one in the corner said we made it last night after you were asleep Wonderful wonderful to have the stamina of youth My my that that slight exertion in carrying the water from the spring Quite exhausted me. Oh true mark. Well, you sit down and rest. There's a deer. Yes. Yes. I will sit down Are you here, Professor? Friday always goes before a fall. Mr. Belander, can't you assist daddy? Belander, you you you I think perhaps I'd better assist Well, if you will Belander, I would like to get this fishnet completed and placed in the stream tonight I all mean Tell me what you wish done. Well, if you hold this trade while I weave the strings, isn't it delighted? I'm sure I don't know what we would do without you Cecil. Oh, don't mention it Why being comfortable being fed and being safe is as much my concern as anyone Nevertheless, without you things would not be so so well. I wouldn't feel so safe. Thank you You know Belander, I've been thinking about Oh daddy, we forgot to tell you Cecil saw Well, in part of the fact that he doesn't speak English I still feel that he is Tarzan of the eight You you saw him again, Clayton. Yes. In fact, he killed and brought that bore to the hut. Extraordinary, hello Did he talk this time? Yes, but I almost stood as little as before However, this time I did make myself understood by sign. Yes, daddy If Cecil hadn't made himself understood, we would probably have had to go without our bore Well, now our fishnet is finished. I think I'll go and set it. We might have fish for breakfast Oh splendid Cecil. Fresh fish is going to be just too delightful. Of course. We don't know that it will work as yet. Oh, I'm sure it will Will we have second trout or um Or a smallmouth bass for breakfast? Well, I'm not so sure that I know just exactly what sort of fish there are in this farmed country I'm sure that any kind of fish will be most acceptable By the way, do you suppose we could do some fishing? That's an idea I'll have to fix up some sort of hook and line and we'll try it one day Well, I'm not so sure that I like the idea of you're going off in that small boat. Oh, that's in the future, Jane Well, Cheerio, I'm off to place my net and set my trap. I'll see you later. Be back in time for dinner now. I will Clean did fellow. Yes indeed, professor exemplary bearing Dury guard for his elders Hallmark of breathing. Yes, he is. He lives up fully to all the traditions of the crypto A fiber of believer in predestination I should indulge in innumerable speculation As to what chance led Clayton here to the hut Built so many years ago by his uncle lord gravestone. Good heavens professor Would you indulge in idle speculation in the very thing you deny? No, no But it's most difficult for lander to be wise all the time, isn't it? Uh, just the same Just the same daddy Just the same my dear One cannot help wondering. No, it's just possible that the safari that Cecil was on his way to join would pass this way Slender hope my child. I wouldn't dwell on it. No Cecil said I should not think of it. He said I would go barney. I was believed was what he said Most extraordinary the expressions of these englishmen Yes, yes slender Barney. Yes, sir. Now what a Logical root of or structure could possibly have led such a conception being placed upon a word Which is so very precise in its original meaning Barney just the same the word conveys what it is meant and after all, that's the important thing Yes, yes, of course famous cost now should we need some fruit? You know, I think I'll pick some while Cecil is setting his net in trap Perhaps your father and I had better go with you I know you don't have to go far, but still Just a moment my dear now now where did I put my helmet? Where did I put my son helmet? Now, what where did I put my my helmet? Is any of you see my Right on your head As Jane Porter her father and philander go in search of fruit Turcars or bully vanished from the tribe by Tarzan watches For days turcars has wandered aimlessly nursing his spite and looking for some weak thing upon which to vent his pent up anger Swinging from tree to tree the manlike beast sees Jane Porter a few steps in advance of her father Silently the hairy brute moves out on a low hanging limb Noiselessly he drops to the ground in front of Jane With one sweeping movement of his very arm, Turcars gathers Jane to him and leads him to the trees
