Tarzan's Secret Treasure Page #5

---

you'll find those jobs aren't as important

as you thought they were.

Look, everybody's lost their heads.

They're lost all right.

And you can thank

this long-haired scamp here.

What's the matter, Cheetah?

You look awfully funny.

Hey, Boy.

- You want to look through the telescope?

- Yes, sir.

Here.

Here, go ahead.

Do you see the moon?

But I can't see the man in the moon now.

Where's he gone to?

There's no man in the moon.

That's an illusion.

The face you see is made up of shadows...

caused by mountains and craters

on the moon.

I used to like him. He looked so friendly.

Well, you have got new friends now.

Say, by the way...

when are you going to show us the place

where you found the gold?

You mean our secret?

Tomorrow morning. Before anybody's up.

Good. Fine.

I'm so happy Boy's getting a chance to see

something of the wonders of science.

I can never thank you enough.

That's nothing. We're glad to do it.

Professor Elliott has

another surprise for you.

Movies.

Movies? What's that?

Wait till you see.

O'Doul has the projection machine

set up now.

Come on, Boy. You too, Tumbo.

Looks like

we'll be getting up early in the morning.

All ready to start now in a minute, folks.

Sit down there

and make yourselves comfortable.

Isn't it exciting?

There is speed for you, Tarzan.

That train goes at least 100 miles an hour.

Why?

- It gets you there faster.

- Why?

Well, to save time, of course.

What do with time?

I'm afraid he has you there, Vandermeer.

Look, Boy. Airplane.

Look, Tumbo, airplane.

That's what Mr. Medford's going to get us

when we get the gold.

Is that all?

Now, it's way past your bedtime, Boy.

You better go to bed.

- But I'm not a bit sleepy.

- Boy, go.

- Good night, Mother.

- Good night, darling.

Good night, Tarzan. Come on, Tumbo.

- Good night, Boy.

- Good night, everybody.

Boy said something

about you and gold and an airplane.

Yes, Medford. What was all that about?

Nothing much.

Just that the other day Boy told me

he'd discovered gold on the escarpment.

Gold up here?

Naturally, I told him

what a great piece of luck it would be...

and I told him about the things

he could buy with gold.

Like the airplanes.

But that's such nonsense.

Little boys tell the most fantastic tales.

That's that.

I'm afraid Boy's going to be disappointed

about the plane.

But, Medford, why didn't you mention

this gold business before?

It was a bit hard to believe, Professor.

I wanted to wait around and dig

and see if I could find the gold.

- No.

- This is any man's country up here.

- Nobody owns this part of the world.

- Tarzan's country.

This is not any man's country.

This is our home.
