Chinese Elephant Puzzle

And now stay tuned for the Mystery Program that is unique among all Mystery Program. Because even when you know who's guilty, you always receive a startling surprise at the final curtain. In the Signal Oil Program, the Whistler.

Signal the famous Go Father gasoline invites you to sit back and enjoy another strange story by the Whistler. For extra driving pleasure, the signal to look for is the yellow and black circle sign that identifies the signal oil program, the Whistler.

I'm the Whistler, and I know many things before I walk by night. I know many strange tales hidden in the hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadows. Yes, I know the nameless terrors of which they dare not speak.

And now for the signal oil company, the Whistler's Strange Story, the Chinese elephant puzzle. The night stretches black and humid over Singapore, and the murky heat teens up from the street to the sandals of the Rickshaw boy, as he pulls his fare through a narrow back street.

Inside the Rickshaw, impeccably attired in a white linen suit that is not yet wilted, sits Elliot Wilson, agent for Crawford Pierce Incorporated, art importers and exporters. Finally, the boy jogs to a stop. Elliot Wilson steps out onto a dimly-litted street corner, pays the rickshaw boy and watches him trot off into the night.

Once the boy is out of sight, Elliot turns, enters the door in the back of an ancient building. Inside the faintly-lighted room, he moves unnoticed through the half-stupid crowd. Through the tinkling glass curtain at the far end, and into a smaller room where Neil's Hanson maintains his dingy headquarters.
