I thought Havelockh arrival meant that the firm had got wise at last to the possibilities of Tan mi; that they were going to back me up properly: at last. and give me a real staff; that they )vlvere going to help me make things urn.” "As you know. Pat, I got letters by to-day's boat. 1-I-avalock hasn't come as my assist at at all. I-leis here to take over from me-once he's been shown the ropes. I'm of- Iered six months' leave when I go down river, I sumose as a consol- ation prize!" Patrick James ignor- ed the bitterness in his voice. "But it is out of the question." he said. "They can't leave an untried . youngster like that in a place like this . "It'll be a year or more be. fore he's fit to run Tan In on his own." "They know better. Pat. Three months I'm to wet-nurse him. After all. there's a precedent. I wasn't much older when 1 came up here first. And I came single-handed." "And brought it off-Isee." said the missionary gravely. "Well. I'm alraid youth have to tell them that they've made a mistake: that they must let you stay." Leslie Dale laughed. "One can always count on you for commonsense. Pat. Unfortunately there are two things against that obvious and eminently sound solut- ion." "Being?" : "First. that l-lax-clock got the job by persuading old Greer that his heart's desire was to run a show on his own. and that he was com- petent to do just that. Desire once more has outrun performance-but we can leave that aside. The point is that he wants to get quit oi me just as soon as ever he can." "Then," said Patrick James. "he must be mad. But what's the second factor?” Dale picked up a pencil. and twid- dled it between his fingers. "I suppose I'd better be plumb honest,” he said at last. "Well-I can't get on with him. I have tried- honestly. Pat, I have. And it just won't do." "Perhaps you're a little bit too us- ed to having your own sweet way?" suggested the missionary. ”Of course that's true. But it's more than arrogance on my part. I-iavelock's not cut out for this sort of job. or for this sort of place. He's lazy. and he's ignorant. He wcn't even begin to learn to talk in the vernacular. He's too fond of his comforts. Pat." "You can't expect him to break himself or all of his bad habits in- side a week." Dale jumped up, and walked over to the window. "You're perfectly fair and reason- able." he said, turning. "and you're also perfectly wrong. Its a question of temperament. and upbringing. not of bad habits. He's been bred soft. He's always walked on the sunny side of the street-and the street has always had a pmlceman at the corner! I-lets taken on this job. not for the job's sake. but to prove to himself what a fine fellow he can be if he likes. And I don't believe that he even thcught of that for himself!" "You mean he got the idea from his wife? Then she might pull if oil for him. A woman can. you know. Look at Janet." "There's as little in common be- tween Shells. I-lavelock and Janet as there is between Gerald Have- lock and you. my dear Pat!" "How can you know-yet?" Dale shrugged his shoulders. "Her shoes-her stockings-her makeup-her general attitude- whntts the good of partlcuiarizing? oh. I'm not blaming her especial- ly. she's an attractive young wo- man-and she ought be some- where just off Piccadi y, with a cigarette and a cocktail. and a young man with hair like patent leather!" "You seem to have given her a good deal of thought. my dear Leslie." "Obviously. She's the one of the pair that counts. without her. Ger- ald would throw it up and go home. But he's frightened of her as well as in-love with her. And she thinks that you can run Tan Fu by going about in well-cut riding bi-eechcs. and being pretty terse with your Chinese servants. She must have read a packet of novels about the British raj on the boat. coming out. Women do. when they go East. And then you get-well. just what we're getting with sheila Havelockz the deuce and all or a mess!" "i'm sorry. Leslie." Dale stared out towards the tumbled roofs of Tim Pu. and went on talking rather to himself than to the missionary: "No. Fat. I shall have to quit. I shall have to start again, probably this time in a civilised place which I shall loathe! And halt the time I shall be thinking of the heat and the smells and the I0-downs here. and of you and Janet. and of the good time I've had makinl T111 N into what it was out of a stinking mud-hole. And I -shall make a mess of it accordinglyl" Patrick James went over and put I hand on his friend's shoulder. Dale swung round at the touch. his face you. Pat. You're a good chap-and what I owe to you and Janet I shall never bs.abie to tell you. But I've got to work this out by myself. At the moment Pm afnid my vanity's got me down!
