Miss Indianapolis Should Be
More Than ‘Just Painted
Up,’ Says Letter.
Miss Indianapolis should be more
than "just painted up.”
That’s the opinion of L. B. Muench.
865 N. Holmes Ave., in a letter to the
Times Pageant Editor concerning the
qualities Miss Indianapolis should
possess.
The writer further states, "Do In
dianapolis justice. Pick the girl that
can stand the showers, who is not
beautiful powder deep but skin deep,
such beauty as nature provided for
her —think more of her form than her
face. Then you will have a true rep
resentative of Indianapolis.”
Many pleas that a_modern girl be
chosen to represent the city at Atlan
tic City in September is expressed in
numerous letters.
"In picking your Miss Indianapolis,”
writes Etta Marilyn Finkelstein of
3014 N. Delaware St.,” I think it would
be wise to select a thoroughly modem
girl. She would fairly breathe of the
advancing age, use rouge and lip
stick artistically, have luxuriant eye
brows and eye-lashes, pretty teeth and
well-kept hands, a figure that is pleas
ing to the eye, and above all a glori
ous head of hair. This should be her
.crowning point and it should not be
bobbed, for you see that it is so Very
common in the East that Indianapolis
wants something different. Her hair
should either be naturally wavy or
marceled, and, of course, well dressed.
This girl should not have only a
pretty face, but also make a good ap
pearance, In other words have style.
"We certainly do not wish the East
ern people to continue thinking that
we are backwoodsmen, that Indians
are running our streets and that we
are & back number while they are so
far advanced. But, if we send a back
model representative with a beautiful
face that is all you can expect and
they will say, “I told you so.”

qualities Miss Indianapolis should
possess.

The Raggedies
“I know what let’s do, Raggedy
Andy,” said Raggedy Ann.
“What?” Raggedy Andy wished to
know.
“I'll take my Wishing Pebble and
wish to know what you shall do with
your Wishing Stick, so that you will
not lose it; and you can take your
Wishing Stick and wish to know
what I shall do with the Wishing
Pebble so that I shall not loso it!” i
“You always think of just the right
thing to do every time, Raggedy
Ann,” said Raggedy Andy. “Th ecot

“Now, let’s wish," said Raggedy
Ann.
Both friends were silent while they
wished each other's treasure would be
where they couldn't lose it. Suddenly
both cried at the same time.
“My Wishing Pebble has gone! Oh,
Dear!”
“My Wishing Stick has disappeared!
Oh, Dear!”
“Now, we haven’t either. So you

after aIL We should have been satis

Raggedy Ann sat down in the grass
and covered her face with her hands
and her shoebutton eyes were moist,
for you see. Raggedy Ann had planned
a whole lot of nice, generous, kindly
wishes for others and now, she
thought, "they will never get them.”
Raggedy Andy started to sit down,
too. but something inside his rag
body went "Snip!" just like someone
snapping their fingers, and a puzzled
expression came over his face.
‘Why don’t you sit down?” asked
Raggedy Ann as she looked up.
“I did start to sit down. Raggedy
Ann, but something inside me
popped! Did you hear it?”
Raggedy Ann jumped to her feet,
then she gave a hearty Raggedy laugh,
“Why, Raggedy Andy!” she cried,
“your Wishing Stick is inside your
body and when you started to stoop
over, you must have broken it. It
makes a hump on your back!”
Raggedy Andy felt to see, “sure

so it would not make a hump.” And
the Wishing Stick slid down so that
it did not show at all.
All this time Raggedy Ann had
been patting herself all around her
rag body, “I wonder if my Wishing
Pebble is hidden in my cotton?” she
said.
“Make a Wish and see, Raggedy
Ann,” suggested Andy, "then if the
wish comes true, you will know you
still have the Wishing Pebble.”
“I guess I'll wish for a glass of
soda water and two straws,” said
Raggedy Ann, and she had hardly
made the wish before there was &

straws in it; one for Raggedy Andy
and one for herself. “I'm so glad you

A revolver shot waa heard two minute*
after
ROBERT ABLETT, ne'er-do-well brother of
MARK ABLETT, the bachelor proprietor of
The Red Houee, had returned from hi*
fifteen years’ absence In Australia and
been ushered into Mark’s office.
ANTONY GILLINGHAM, a gentleman ad
venturer and friend of
BILL BEVERLEY, one of Mark's guesta, ar
rived at that moment to find
MATT CAYLEY. Mark's companion, pound
ing on the locked door of the office and
demanding admittance. The two men
entered the office through a window and
on the floor found the body of Robert
with & bullet through the head. Mark
was not to be found.
Police Inspector Birch believes that Mark
bas murdered his brother, whose visit he
anticipated with annoyance, but there are
several points which arouse Anthony's sus
picions. Cayley Invites him to remain over
the inquest and Antony Informs Bill Beverly
that ''things are going to happen here
soon."
Cayley was walking across the
lawn toward them, a big, heavy
shouldered man. with one of those
strong, clean-shaven, ugly faces which
can never quite be called plain.
Cayley nodded as he came to them,
and stood there for a moment.
“We can make room for you,” said
Bill, getting up.
“Oh, don’t bother, thanks. I just
came to say," he went on to Antony,
"that naturally they've rather lost
their heads in the witchen, and din
ner won’t be till half-past eight. Do
just as you like about dressing, of
course.”
Having said what he wanted to say,
Cayley remained there a little awk
wardly, as if not sure whether to go
on or to 6tay. Antony wondered
whether he wanted to talk about the
afternoon's happenings, or whether it
was the one subject he wished to
avoid. To break the silence he asked
carelessly if the inspector had gone.
Cayley nodded. Then he said ab
ruptly, “He’s getting a warrant for
Mark’s arrest.'"
Bill made a suitably sympathetic
noise, and Antony said with a shrug
of the shoulders, "Well, he was bound
to do that, wasn’t he? It doesn't
mean anything. They naturally want
to get hold of your cousin, innocent
or guilty.”
"Mark? It’s absurd,” said Bill im
petuously.
.“Bill's loyal, you see, Mr. Cayley."
"And you owe no loyalty to any one
concerned?”
"Exactly. So perhaps I might be
too frank.”
Bill had dropped down on the grass
and Cayley took his place on the seat,
and sat there heavily, his elbows on
his knees, his chin on his hands, gaz
ing at the ground.
"I want you to be quite frank," he
said at last. "Naturally, lam preju
diced where Mark is concerned. So
I want to know how my suggestion
strikes you—who have no prejudices
either way.”
’ Your suggestion?’’
“My theory that. If Mark killed his
brother, it was purely accidental —as I
told the inspector."
Bill looked up with interest,
"You mean that Robert did the
hold-up business.” he said, “and there
was a bit of a struggle, and the re
volver went off an dthen Mark lost his
head and bolted? That sort of idea?"
“Exactly.”
"Well, that seems all right." He
turned to Antony. "There’s nothing
wrong with that, is there? It's the
most natural exi*lanatlon to any one
who knows Mark."
COLORS FOR FALL.
COfrtKiKT v itcauj
These are the colors you’ll wear
In your new fall frocks: Toast and
nut brown as well as several wood
tones. Flag and royal are the two
most fashionable blues.
Green Is the newest color and will
be popular, especially in almond,
which is a grayed reseda. Bright
emerald and light empire are two
other shades well spoken of.
Rosewood and bright red will also
be used by way of contrast. Day
time dresses of all kinds will, of
course, be of staple colors —tan. black,
silver gray, brown and navy.
The tailored model sketched is of
navy Poiret twill and shows the dig
nified, simple lines that are expected
to predominate this autumn.
Antony pulled at his pipe.
“I suppe— it is," he said slowly.
“But there’s one thing that worries
me rather.”
“What’s that?” Bill and Cayley
asked the question simultaneously.
“The key.”
“The key?” said Bill.
Cayley lifted his head and looked at
Antony. “What about the key?” he
asked.
“Well, there may be nothing in It;
I just wondered. Suppose Robert was
killed ,as you say, and suppose Mark
lost his head and thought of nothing
but getting away before any one
■ could see him. Well, very likely he’d
lock the door and put the key in
his pocket. He'd do it without think
ing, Just to gain a moment’s time.”
“Yes, that’s what I suggest.”
"Yes, that all right If the key Is
there. But suppose it Isn’t there?"
The suggestion, made as if it were
already an established fact, startled
them both.
“What do you mean?” said Cayley.
"Well, it’s just a question of where
people happen to keep their keys.
: You go up to your bedroom, and per
| haps you like to lock your door in
| case anybody comes wandering in
when you’ve only got one sock and
a pajr of braces on. Well, that’s
natural enough. But downstairs peo
ple don’t lock themselves in. It’s
really never done at all. Bill, for
instance, has never locked himself
Into the dining room in order to be
alone with the sherry. On the other
hand, ali women, and particularly
servants, have a horror of burglars.
And if a burglar gets in by the win
dow, they like to limit his activities
to that particular room. So they keep
j the keys on the outside of the doors
| ar.d lock the doors when they go to
j bed.” He knocked the ashes out of
• his pipe, and added, “At least, my
i mother always used to.”
“You mean,” said Bill excitedly,
“that the key was on the outside of
the door when Mark went into the
room?”
“Well, I was just wondering.”
"Have you noticed the other rooms
—the billiard room, and library, and
so on?” said Cayley.
'T've only just thought about it,
while I’ve been sitting out heie. You
i live here —haven’t you ever noticed
I them?"
I Cayley sat considering, with his
| head on one side.
“It seeins rather absurd, you know,
' but I can’t say that I have."
He turned to Bill. “Have you?"
"Good Lord. no. I should never
: worry about a thing like that."
"I’m sure you wouldn’t,” laughed
Antony. "Well, we can have a look
when we go in. If the Other keys
are outside, then this one was prob
ably outside, too, and in that case—
well, it makes It more interesting.”
Cayley said nothing. Bill chewed a
piece of grass, and then said, "does
it make much difference?”
”It makes it more hard to under
stand what happened in there. Take
your accidental theory and see where
you get to. No Instinctive turning of
I the key now, is there? He’s got to
j open the door to get It, and opening
| the door means showing his head to
! anybody in the hall—his cousin, for
I instance, whom he left there two min
' utes ago. Is a man in Mark's state
j of mind, frightened to death lest ha
should be found with the body, going
to do anything so foolhardy as that?”
"He needn’t have been afraid of
me,” said Cayley.
"Then why didn’t he call for you?
He knew you were about. You could
have advis id him: Heaven knows ho
wanted ad'ice. But the whole theory
of Mark's escape Is that he was afraid
of you anil of everybody else.”
“Yes, I expect you're right," said
Bill thoughtfully. “Unless he took
the key in with him, and locked the
door at once.”
"Exactly. But in that case you
have to build up anew theory en
tirely."
"You mean that it makes it seem
more deliberate?”
"Yes; that, certainly. But it also
seems to make Mark out an absolute
idiot. Just suppose for a moment
that, for urgent reasons which nei- !
ther of you know anything about, he
had wished to get rid of his brother.
Would he have done it like that?
Just killed him and then run away?
Why, that's practically suicide. No.
If you really wanted to remove an
undesirable brother, you would do it j
a little bit more cleverly than that.” i
Cayley had been silent, apparently \
thinking over this new idea. With j
his eyes still on the ground, he said ;
now:
“I hold to my opinion that it was
purely accidental, and that Mark lost
his head and ran away.”
"But what about the key?” asked
Bill.
"We don’t know yet that the keys
wore outside.”
"Oh, well of course, if they are in
side, then your original theory is
probably the correct one. Having
often seen them outside, I Just won
dered —that’s all.”
“Even if the, key was outside,” went
on Cayley stubbornly, “I still think
it might have been accidental. He
might have taken it in with him.

an unpleasant one, and not wishing
to be interrupted.”
“But he had Just to’.d you to stand
by in case he wanted you; so why
should he lock you out? Besides, I
PICKING BEAUTY IS DIFFICULT JOB
By MARIAN BALE.
If someone offered you a good sal
ary and told you to earn it by trav
eling over the country finding beau
tiful girls, wouldn’t you think you
had fallen into something pretty
easy?
That was what Bijou Fernandez
thought when such a job was created
for her.
She's looking, you see, for future
motion picture stars. She doesn’t
want just beauties of the poster type
—there are many such; she wants
beauties with personality, magnetism,
appeal, brains, breeding and poise,
who still are young, unspoiled, wist
ful and teachable.
Which is what you call a large or
der.
• • •
"You would be surprised," she ex
plains, "to learn how much feminine
beauty depends upon coloring and up
on the costumer’s art. Take that out
of consideration and many beauties
should think that If a man were go
ing to have an unpleasant interview
' with a threatening relation, the last
thing he would do would be to bar
ricade himself in with him. He would
want to open all the doors and say,
‘Get out of it!”
Cayley was silent, but his mouth
looked obstinate. Antony gave a
little apologetic laugh and stood up.
"Well, come on. Bill,” he said; "we
ought to be stepping.” He held out a
hand and pulled his friend up. Then,
turning to Cayley, he went on, “You
must forgive me if I have let my
thoughts, run on rather.”
j "That's all right, Mr. Gillingham,”
said Cayley, standing up, too. "You
say that you're going up to the inn
j now about your bag?”
Cayley nodded and turned to gro
I into the house. Antony took hold of
Bill's arm and walked off with him
i in the opposite direction.
CHAPTER VII
i They walked in silence for a little,
■ until they had left the house and gar
dens well behind them.
"Tell me something about Mark,"
said Antony suddenly.
"What sort of things?"
"Well, never mind about his being
your host, or about your being a
perfect gentleman, or anything like
that. Cut out the Manners for Men,
and tell me what you think of Mark,
and how you like staying with him,
and how many rows your little house
party has had this week, and how
you get on with Cayley, and all the
rest of it,”
Bill looked at him eagerly. ..
"I say, are you being the complete
detective?"
“Well, I wanted anew profession.”
smiled the other.
! “What fun! I mean,” he corrected
himself apologetically, “one oughtn’t
|to sav that, when there’s a man
; dead in the house, and one’s host—•”
He broke off a little uncertainly.
"Well?” said .Antony. “Carry on.
Mark.”

"But when we returned to America,"
Benet says, "and found all the young
people speaking an alien tongue,
wearing a uniform and conducting
themselves with a freedom quite un
known even a year ago, I began to
have a clubby feeling for Methuselah
and Rip Van Winkle.
“After attending our first flapper
ball my wife suggested we go back
to nice, good, old moral paris, but
I refused.
" ‘lf I am going to write for Amer
icans,’ I told her, ‘l’d better stay in
my own country and watch ’em grow.
Otherwise, I shall belong to the old*
school before my time.’ *
"The flapper is the picturesque fig
ure of the day, whether we understand
her or not
"Os course, she is only an accen
tuation of what has always been, but
she is unique. -Paris has no flapper
problem now, but it may come in the
next generation. Now they have only
two classes of girls, those of good
family and those who aren’t.
"The American flapper has people
guessing because no one knows just
how good or how bad she is. That's
what they are all trying to figure out.

"I believe the flapper will make the
most interesting type of woman ever
known. Before the flapper everything
went to the pretty girl.
"Flapperism has reduced all girls
to a sort ot level so far as looks are
concerned, and they must rely upon
personality, and something beside*
beauty for their charm.
"The flapper has a chance to see
and know life as the women of no
other generation had. It should de
velop super-women.”
