THE MENACING STREAM ~ 1932.11.06

---

As Tarzan and Von Harben emerged from the cavern, they halted suddenly, confronted by a stream alive with crocodiles. Quickly they took to the nearest tree, as the great reptiles advanced up the shore. In back of them rose endlessly great towering cliffs. So Tarzan made his plans to go forward across the crocodile-infested stream. Using fibres of the vine that grew about the tree, he lost no time in making a lasso of great strength. Then hurled it across the stream, where he snagged the limb of a tree on the opposite shore. 

After he had pulled the line taut Von Harben fastened it securely to the trunk. Tarzan started across the improvised bridge, swinging hand over hand. But as he neared the opposite shore, he felt the fibres that had been straining under his weight, slowly giving way. Suddenly they snapped. But Tarzan was ready. As the fibre-rope broke, he swung his body ape-like, through the air, and reached out toward a thick vine that overhung the water. As he swung up on the vine, Tarzan found himself confronted by the gleaming eyes of a great black panther.
