The winning letter Is as follows: Pageant Editor, the Times. City: Dear Sir—When one thinks of In dianapolis womanhood, does he not instinctively recall such qualities as dignity, intellectuality, gracefulness? Surely the girl or woman, repre sentative of the true spirit of our city, manifests these qualities. She must also be pure, courteous and sweet of manner, lovely of dis position, strong in character, ma tured. She should be affable and joyous, though not frivolous nor giddy. She is progressive and alert, though not flapperish nor extreme. There are many such lovely types of womanhood in our city and I hope the one chosen to represent Indian apolis at the Atlantic City Pageant will be chosen because of her embodi ment at least of these qualities. If she has such*qualities she will indeed be beautiful. Respectfully, JUNE WINONA SNYDER, 718 Highland Ave., City. Miss Snyder resides with her father and mother. Mr. and Mrs. William M. Snyder.

THE ADVENTURES OF RAGGEDY ANN AND ANDY ByJOHXXY ORUELLB Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy walked down the side of the Laughing Brook which ran through the deep, deep, woods, filled with Fairies ’n everything until they came to the burrow home of Benny Bunny. Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy walked around the Bunny’s home to the kitchen door and there they stopped in astonishment: for, when they looked inside, all the Bunny fur niture was knocked this way and that and there were broken dishes hpon the floor. “Dear me,” said Raggedy Ann, "I wonder what could have happened? Do you think the Bunnys could have been quarreling over the ice cream. Raggedy Andy?” Raggedy Andy was just about to say, “I do not think so. Raggedy Ann, for the Bunnys never quarrel:” When he heard a little noise inside the ! | OAr7l FREDDY FOX HAD TO GO TO BED. Bunny's kitchen. It was a very little noise like this. “Mmmm! Lick* Lick! Lick!" "Humm!" said Raggedy Ann, mus ing like, "what do you spect that Is. Raggedy Andy?” "I don’t know, Raggedy Ann!” Rag gedy Andy replied In a whisper, "but you wait out here and I’ll soon And out!” Raggedy Andy tiptoed softly Into the Bunny kitchen and there' hiding behind the door was Freddy Fox and he was licking his lips just as Foxes ; do after they have had something very, very good to eat. Raggedy Andy knew in a moment that Freddy Fox should not have been in the Bunny kitchen so he 1 caught Freddy's suspenders and held ! him. “Come here," Raggedy Andy j called. "Here is Freddy Fox in the Bunny’s kitchen and I spect he's eaten j all the Bunny’s up, every smidgeon!" “My! My! Freddy Fox!” said Rag- i gedy Ann. "Have you eaten every I smidgeon of all the Bunny family, j Don’t answer me, for I can tell by the ! way you lick your lips you have just finished eating them.” Indeed, Freddy Fox looked quite guilty. Ho wiggled his big toe in a knot hole in the Bunny’s kitchen floor and hung his head and mumbled under his breath, "Honest, Raggedy Ann, I only ate up all their icecream.” “Well,” said Raggedy Ann very' much relieved. “But then that is bad enough. Where are all the Bunnys, Freddy Fox? Just you tell me that!” "I don’t know," Freddy Fox started crying. “They were eating the ice j cream when I came by and when 1 walked into their kitchen they kicked over the furniture and went lickety split into the dinihg-room and out the front door I guess, so I just ate all the ice cream and was waiting behind the kitchen door for the Bunnys to come back so I could thank them." “Just you hold Freddy Fox until I . call his mamma,” said Raggedy Ann ! to Raggedy Andy as she went out the] door. Mrs. Freda Fox was a veryj nice Mamma Fox and she was so sorry when Raggedy Ann told her j what Freddy had done, and she took Mamma Bunny’s pancake paddle and was just about to paddy-whack Fred dy Fox when he started howling very loudly: “Oh, ouch!” My stomach hurts!” So Mamma Fox winked her bright little eye at the two Raggedys and said: “Uh-h-h, Freddy Foxi Now you see, you have punished yourself, for you not only took what did not belong to you, but you make a pig out of yourself and now you are paying for It!” Freddy Fox howled and howled un til all the neighbors came to see what it was all about. Mamma Freda Fox had to take Freddy Fox and give him some real, real bitter medicine, so bitter It took all the ice cream taste away. And then Freddy Fox had to go to bed, for the rest of that day, for being so naughty. Then when the Bunnys came back home, Raggedy Ann had straightened up all the fur niture and had wished for a lot more ice cream, so all the neighbors were asked in. And so, after all, the Bun nys had a nice time and they were happier than ever, for you see they shared their nice ice cream with all their friends. And when you share the good things of life with those about you, the good things of life al ways seem to be ever and ever so much better.—Copyright, 1922, by Johnny Gruelle.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES The Red House Mystery (Continued From Our Last Issue) “Was it the collar you were looking for In the cupboard?” said Bill eagerly. “Os course* 'Why no collar?’ I said. For some reason Cayley con sidered it necessary to hide all Mark’s clothes: not just the suit, but every thing which he was wearing, or sup posed to be ■wearing, at the time of the murder. But he hadn’t hidden the collar. Why? Had he left it out by mistake? So I looked in the cup board. It wasn’t there. Had he lef\. it out on purpose? If so, why?—and where was it? Naturally I began to say to myself, 'Where have I seen a collar lately? A collar all by itself?’ And I remembered —what. Bill?” Bill frowned heavily to himself, and shook his head. “Don’t ask me, Tony. I can’t —By Jove!” He threw up his head. “In the basket in the office bedroom!” “Exactly." “But is that the one?” “The one that goes with the rest of the clothes? I don’t know. Where can it be? But if so, why send the collar quite casually to the wash in the ordinary way. and take im mense trouble to hide everything else? Why, why, ,why?” Bill bit hard at his pipe, but could think of nothing to say. “Anyhow,” said Antony, getting up restlessly, "I’m certain of one thing. Mark knew on the Monday that Rob ert was coming here” CHAPTER XVIII The coroner, having made a few commonplace remarks as to the ter rible nature of the tragedy which they had come to Investigate that after noon, proceeded to outline the case to the jury. Antony did not expect to learn much from the evidence —he knew the facts of the case so well by now—but he wondered if Inspector Birch had de veloped any new theories. If so, they would appear In the coroner's exami nation, for the coroner would cer tainly have been coached by the police as to the important facts to be ex tracted from each witness. Bill was the first to be put through it. “Now, about this letter, Mr. Bev erley?” he was asked when his chief evidence was over. “Did you see it at all?” “I didn’t see the actual writing. I saw the back of it. Mark waa hold ing it up when he told us about his brother.” “You don't know what was in it, then?" Bill had a sudden shock. He had read the letter only that morning. He knew quite well-what was in it. But it wouldn’t do to admit this. And then, just as he was about to perjure himself, he remembered: Antony had heard Cayley telling the inspector. “I knew afterwards. I was told. But Mark didn't read it out at break* fast.’ ’ “You gathered, however, that it was an unwelcome letter?” | “Oh, yes'” “Would you say that Mark was frightened by it?" “Not frightened. Fort of butter— and resigned. Sort of ‘Oh, Ijord, here we are again!”’ There was a titter here and there. I The coroner smiled, and tried to pre i tend that ho hadn't, j “Thank you, Mr. Beverly.” | The next witness was summoned ! by the name of Andrew Amos, and Antony looked up with interest, won dering who he was. | “He lives at the inner lods-e,” whis pered Bill to him. j All that Amos had to pay was that a stranger had passed by his lodge At a little before three that afternoon, and had spoken to him. He had | seen the body and recognized it as the man. “What did he say?" “ 'ls this right for the Red House?” or something like that, sir.” “What did you say?" “I said, ‘This Is the Red House. | Who do you want to see?’ He was a j bit rough-looking, you know, sir, and ; I didn't know what he waa doing j there.” “Well?” “Well, sir. he naid, Ts Mister Mark Ablett at home?' It dbesn't sound much put like that, sir, but I didn't rare about the way he said It. So I got in front of him like, and said. ’What do you want, eh?* and he gave a sort of chuckle and said, ‘I want to see my dear brother Mark.’ ” "Well, then, I took a closer look at him and I see that p’raps he might be his brother, so I said, ‘lf you’ll follow the drive, sir, you’ll come to the house. Os course, I can't say If Mr. Ablett’s at home.’ And he gave a sort of nasty laugh again and said, ‘Fine place Mister Mark Ablett's got here. Plenty of money to spend, eh?’ Well, then I had another look at him, but before I could make up my mind, he laughed and went on. That's all I can tell you, sir.” Andrew Amos stepped down and moved away to the back of the room, nor did Antony take his eyes off him until he was assured that Amos in tended to remain there until the In quest was over. “Who's Amos talking to now?” he whispered to Bill. “Parsons. One of the gardefiers. He’s at the outside lodge on the Stan ton road. They’re all here today. Sort of holiday for ’em.” ”1 wonder if he’s giving evidence, too,” thought Antony. He was. He followed Amos, He Judges' Committee Tonight Chooses Girl to Represent Indianapolis at Pageant The committee of judges tonight a t 8 o'clock will begin the task of selecting Miss Indianapolis from over 200 entrants who submitted pictures to The Times Pageant Editor.

He didn’t hear the ' shot—not to notioe. He was s little | | hard of hearing. He had seen a gen- j tleman arrive about five minutes after j Mr. Robert. “Can you see him In court now?** ] asked the coroner. Parsons looked round slowly. An- j tony caught his eye and smiled. “That’s him,” said Parsons, point- j ing. Everybody looked at Antony. “That was about five minutes aft- j erward?” “About that, sir." “Did anybody come out of the | house before this gentleman's arri- ■ val?” "No, sir. That is to say, I didn’t j see ’em.” Stevens followed. She gave her j evidence much as she had given it j to the inspector. Nothing new was I brought out by her examination. ! Then came Elsie. As the reporters scribbled down what she had over heard. they added In brackets “Sen sation” for the first time that after noon. “How soon after you had hoard this did the shot come?” asked the i coroner. “Almost at once, sir.” “Were you still In the hall?" "Oh, no. sir. I was just outside 1 Mrs. Stevens’ room. The house keeper, sir." “You didn’t think of going back to the hall to see what had hap pened?” “Oh, no, sir. I Just went in to Mrs. Stevens, and ehe said, ‘Oh, what was that?’ frightened-like. And I said, ‘That was In the house, Mrs. Stevens, that was.’ Just like some thing going off, it was.” “Thank you," said the coroner. There was another emotional dis turbance in the room as Cayley went into the witness-box; not "Sensation” this time, but an eager and, as it | seemed to Antony, sympathetic in terest. Now they were getting to ' grips with the drama. He gave his evidence carefully, un emotionally—the lies with the same slow deliberation as the truth. An tony watched him intently, wondering what it was about him which had this odd sort of attractiveness. For Antony, who knew that ho was lying, and lying fas he believed) not for Mark’s sake but his own, yet could not help sharing sortie of that general sympathy with him. "Was Mark ever in possession of a revolver?” asked the coroner. “Not to my knowledge. I think I should have known If he had been.” "You were alone with him all that morning. Did he talk about this visit of Robert’s at all?” “I didn't see very much of him in the morning. I was at work in my room, an J outside, and so on. We lunched together and he talked of it then a little.” “In what terms?” “Well —” he hesitated, and then went on, “I can’t think of a better word than ‘peevishly.’ "You didn’t hear any conversation between the brothers when they were in the office together?” “No. I happened to go into the li brary after Mark had gone in and I was there all the time.” “Was the library door open?” “Oh, yes.” "Did you see or hear the last wit ness at all?” "No.” "Would you call Mark a hasty tempered man?” Cayley considered this carefully be fore answering. "Hasty-tempered, yes,” he said. "But not v.olent-tempered.” "Was he fairly athletic? Active and quick?” "Active and quick, yes. Not par- ticularly strong.” "Yes. • • • one question more. Was Mark in the habit of carrying any considerable sum of money about with him?” “Yes. He always had one 100- pound note on him, and perhaps ten or twenty pounds as well.” “Thank you, Mr. Cayley." Cayley went back heavily to his HE GAVE HIS EVIDENCE CARE FULLY. seat. "Damn it,” said Antony to him self. “why do I like the fellow?” “Antony Gillingham!” Again the eager interest of the room could be felt Who was this stranger who had got mixed up in the business bo mysteriously? Antony smiled at Bill and stepped up to give his evidence. Ha explained how he came to be staying at the “George” at Woodham, how he had heard that the Red House was in the neighborhood, how he had walked over to see his friend Beverley, and had arrived Just after the tragedy.

Os course you had no idea whose body it was?” “No.” “Did Mr. Cayley say anything?” “He turned the body over, just so as to see the face, and when he saw it, he said, ‘Thank God’.” Again the reporters wrote t’Sensa tion.” , “Did you understand what he meant by that?” “I asked him who it was, and he said that it was Robert Ablett.
