From all appearances, he was [inking fast into that trance now. Bhe had. she admitted,

As soon as what she irreverently termed the "skull hunt" had com- menced again. Rupert. had resumed his old manner.

Every word he was now uttering. while no doubt calculated to im- prsss a whole college of scientists with the weight of his learning, only emphasised the gulf that yawned between him and her.

Suddenly Rupert divined that she was not paying the slightest atten- Lion to his (ll.:COLll‘.‘.e. He turned his ‘rung sunshine gleaming . acles. square hill‘ of his jaw. the profile or his llO:C and wide brow. and her heart ilutiered.

If she could persuade him that she was thoroughly empty-headed. that would do the trick.

It was Rupert's turn to say “on!

He was non-plussed. She hﬁd struck him fromlthe v : start as being an E!.‘fC€‘(.‘dlligly bright Elrl.

She saw the be

Florence as his travelling compani- ion. He had been grateful to the professor for arringing it so. _

IN THE CAR BEHIND

But Florence seemed positively bored with his company.

For the first time in his life, Ru ert felt the grip of an infer-iorfTy complex. He ad never been con. scious of boring anyone before. He had a.lw 5 been too intent on what he himsef wiks saying to worry un- duly as to how be affected his aud- ence,

He had presumptuous]! taken It for granted that Florence would be interested in his research.

Now it came to him like I thun- der-clap how presumptuous that had

Rupert felt humble.

She. too. looked miserably at the passing landscape.

"Okay darling."

e air seemed heavy and breath- ess. In the uncanny stillness insects made loud whirring noises.

Ahead of them. the Drakensiberg mountains lifted their fantastically shaped peals against the skyline. The hills were tortured into stran c shapes. and appeared like the gun - fans of some secret land. Every de- tail of grassy slope and wrinkled rock stood out with startling clar- ity. The hills seemed so near that one could have reached out and touched them. In reality. they were a good thirt miles away.

"That in tself was a bad sl n, a “JIl‘(‘ portent of a storm. Pro essor Ellington frowned.

And with such different interesbs and a different. outlook from him- self that she refreshed him. I-Ier vivaclty was a tonic—— tonic. he had told himself, which he had long been needln . without knowing what It was that e needed.

Rupert. too. had wrestled with his problems.

Had he changed. or had Dorothy h:s fiancee. clianged? He did not know; but he realised. with a rather sinking feeling. that. while he ad- mired her tremendously and looked up to her, he could not, strive as he might. now work ll. any other Sr: of cnwzion about rothy.
