CHAPTER V. Music in the Air. Garrick and Dick walked slowly down Forty Ninth street and across Sixth avenue, laughing at Ruth’s ruse—and a bit sore. “I anpposo you feel put out!” punned Garrick. Dick was too puzzled to get It. "She certainly put us through the Inner Circle with as much neatness and dispatch as a sardine goes from the river to the tin in the movies • • Only, I wonder why 5” Garrick was thinking of the threat message. "Could it be thnt she took that way of keeping us out of danger?” He stopped short and looked back. A tough stranger was lurking back of them. Garrick moved Rhead and stopped again. The stranger stopped and slouched into a garage. Garrick walked back quickly and as he passed him looked over and smiled. "I’m on,” he laughed and the man dropped his eye In sheepish They turned the corner and again Into Fiftieth street. As they pnssed the other dior of the garage which ran through ♦he block Garrick hesitated nd“rif to walk through it and locate the shadower. As he did so he saw aaotberd man slink Into a doorway. "We’ve discovered one; another has moved up to take his place. An old and very effective device.” He hurried down the street with Dick, plunged Into the subway, waited for a train, then walked on out the other exit. No "tail” could hold down Garrick if he suspected he was being shadowed.. What did it mean ? Still speculating, threy went on to Garrick’s city apartment at Bachelor’s Hail and turned in. The next morning was rainy, damp and depressing. Garrick and Dick ha 1 breakfasted and were discussing the events of the day before. Garrick’s mind was most active when his physical being seemed laziest. Stretching out In his chair, raising his arnft slowly above his head, he yawned and was about to deliver himself of some sage observation on life in general and the case in particular when the telephone rang. "Hang it, what’s this? Answe.r It, Dick, old man?” Dick’s mind and body were both alert. He had breakfasted with a couple of Invisible companions, love and anxiety. "Garrick.” He held his hand now over the transmitter. "My word! Its Mrs. Walden.”

“Xita Walden? Here? Tell her there’s a little reception room down there. Well be with her right away.” Xfta Walden was distractedly winking qniek and balling the handkerchief la her hand as sljr gazed out of the window at her car in which McKay was biting •with bulldog grip at his pipe as if contemplating something distasteful. Garrick closed the door as she rushed excit<ully to him and seized his hand with fingers that clinched ly‘‘Guy • • • I am desperate. It's Ruth again—my little girl. You must find her for me./ I can't take any one Into my confidence except you—and Dick. I don't know which way to turn. She didn’t come home last night. I hare walked and walked the floor waiting for her. I haven’t even had a telephone call from h*T or any one else. Y.'bat shall I do? She never, never did this before. My Ruthle —my little girl. Oh, Guy, 1 can’t stand the worry and uncertainty of It. Help me. p'oase.” Garrick took'Nita's arms and led her quietly back to a big seat In one end of the room. Gently he questioned hr until he had her quieted by concentrating on her answers. The™ was a knock at the door. Garrick pened it- It was McKay. “Piease, sir. I was Just talking to a friend of mine, a ehanffe.ir, who drives for seme people out on the south shore, who live up the street. Miss Ruth's ear was wrecked out on the. Island—ran into a fence or something on an approach to one of the bridges on the Motor Parkway—over the embankment—near Smithtown.” “Was she hnrt? Where is she?” Mrs. Walden's aonte ears had caught even the modulated words. "Xo one knows, ma’am. There was not a trace of any one around the carjust the machine, left there.” “Oh. Gut, this Is terrible, terrible. What shall I do? I’ll go wild with fear if T don't hear something soon.” What had happened? Garrick tried to be reassuring, but Xita Walden would not he reassured. “This is another mad escapade of Ruth • * * and Vtra, I suppose • • • and who else? What can Ruth b? thinking about?” Garrick took down the telephone receiver and called a Bryant number. Dick glanced over quickly. It was a number he had seen in the hallway of the Inner Circle and had made a mental note of. Evidently Garrick had done the same. “This Is Glenn Buckley's brother.” he prevaricated “Is he there? Well, do you know where I can call him? You think he's at the Cecil? Thank you.” Garrick turned, without betraying where ir was h' had called. “They’re some friends of h!s. I thought perhaps Glenn might give us some information. Suppose. Xita. you hve MoTvav drive us over to the Cecil. It’s on Park avenue." They were rounding the Grand Central and eaneht In traffic when Garrick suddenly beckoned over a newsboy ard bought a eonp'e of evening papers. " “Another rohberv on Long Island.” he commented, as hewrlnnced down from the big headline. “The Parr estate In Smithtown." “The Parrs?" commented Mrs. Walden. **\V hy, they're friends of mine. They

have a beautiful place, very wealthy people. "Strange circumstances,” went on reading Garrick. "A girl and two men.” Then he checked himself . “Why that’s like the affair over at Gerards' the other night,” supplied Mrs. Walden. It was easy to see what was running through her mind, the similarity of the affairs, the coincidence of Ruth's car on ! the Farkway near Smithtown, and her f Intimacy with the family. She did not . say anything hut ran through the short news story feverishly without finding j anything further to feed her fears. But jit was evident that she suspected the Worst. Had Ruth been mixed up in it? ; They found Glenn at the Cecil, looking ! a ldt fagged. : "Ruth. why. she’s all right, Mrs. Walden,” he hastened. “Yes. I heard something about an accident. Just the steering gear went w rong. But she was quick enough to get from under and the car took the fence Instead of up the bridge I and off—at least that’s what I heard.” They harried young Buckley with questions, but he was guarded. Ife protested that he knew nothing more, winding up again with the assurance, "She's all right, though.” "But how do you know she's all right (” insisted Garrick. j "Because I was talking to Vira over the wire when I made the appointment to meet her nt the tea rooms of the Champs Elysees at tbrej; and she Baid ; she was. That's all I know.” It seemed as though having delivered his assurance that Ruth was safe, Glenn was doing some rapid thinking on his ! own account. How had they located hltn here at the Cecil? It was true that his family lived here In the winter, but the more he revolved It in his mind, the more

Just trust me. I believe that boy, even if he was tightmouthed. I can handle this thing. Don’t worry. Just : keep busy. See, the sun is out, now. ! Give her a surprise. Take McKay: go i out there: get her car towed somewhere before she does. I'll get her, safe.” Nlta Walden was n arly hysterical, but the pressure of Garrick's band asid his almost hypnotic eyes won her. Glenn had not been such a had guess- ; or. It was nearly three when Garrick and ■ Dick sauntered Into the lobby of the I Champs Elysees, looked about cautiously, j and proceeded to get under cover, i Before the tea room on the mezzanine floor hung sign: "Radio Concerts Daily.” They nosed In, saw that the j was clear, and selected a table in jan angular corner, with a mirror so placed that It" was a veritable periscope. An orchestra in Newark was broadi osting some selection ns they sat down j at the table and ordered tea and crump-, ets. It was not more than sixty seconds i after three that they saw Glenn come In, : looking pnlo and tired, select a table nt ' the other end of the. room and drop into j a chair facing the entrance, j Ten minutes later Vira bustled In, oxj cited and angry about something—and ! worried. Glenn rose and greeted her, all j animation, now that a girl was In quesj tion. Few things are more fascinating then j listening to a radiophone concert.

It is fascinating, ordinarily, but there were four people at opposite ends . f the room for whom this concert hrd no interest. _ Garrick and Dick, watching and wondering what to do, had fallen into a discussion of Ruth and Vira, and Garrick was taking a cruel delight in sounding Di< k. To his serious mind, Dick confessed, it was Just th's vivacious type of Ruth that i had for him the greatest attraction. As Ihe put it. an intellectual girl would j have been merely intensifying his owu nature.

"Yet they often do. This is one of the strange anomalies of the new freedom of women.” Dick frowned ns ho thought of the glamor of the life they had seen at the Inner iC’rcle. What the end of it all might be, lie evidently preferred not to gues. At least he did not pursue the subject. "Do you know, I've been worrying a good deal about the handwriting on that autographic film,” Garrick changed the subject its ho brought out duplicate prints he had made. “Whose Is it? I>o you happen to have any note or letter from Ruth?” Dick could not avoid the point-binnk Inquiry. He pulled a little note from his pocket. Inside the envelope was a dainty handkerchief. Garrick looked tip with a questioning smile. Dick flushed "A note from Ruth several weeks ago • • *” Then he stopped. He did not need to explain the dainty little hit of lace. Garrick took the note and laid it down on the table beside the print. Then with his pencil he 'began noting the formation of letters, the capitals, a score of little characeritics. "The writing Is Ruth’s, all right,” he remarked, passing both over to Dick and at arm’s length In silence pointing from one to the other with the pencil. "I think l’iu get! ing a line on Ruth,” he said in a tone to reassure Dick. "She's a game htrd—but she flies funny.” There was a pause. The concert number was now a solo. "Love's Old Sweet Song.” Neither Bald a word. Dick was mechanically folding up the letter, restoring the handkerchief In the envelope, and handing back the print to Guy. * They sat for a moment as the words, clear, tender, distinct, transferred Hertzian waves into waves of emotion. Suddenly—ah-h-h Blzz-zz-zz zz Buzz-zz-zz-zz. A shade of annoyance passed over Db-k's face as if a thread of feeling b 1 been broken. Itzzzzzzzz— dot dash-dot-dot-dash. Dick scowled.

To two people they were a message; to two others they were a mystery. A few moments later Glenn pnid the check and the two rose to go. Garrick hastily did the same.

The ADVENTURES of & Raggedy Raggedy Ann and Andy By JOHNNY GROELLE

Raggedy Ann, Missus Wltcbie and Raggedy Andy sat under a very wonderful bush. It was a magical bush. Missus Wltchle, had thought a real long, long time when Bhe made the bush with her magical buttou charms, "I wanted to make something different from any other kind of bush,” Missus Wltchle was telling Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy, "so I thought and thought. Presently I thought of this. Don't you think it Is a nice hush?” "Indeed It is. Missus Wltchle,” Raggedy Ann replied as she reached up and picked a gum drop off a branch. “What kind ure these,” asked Raggedy Andy as he pointed to a brajich covered with red bulls. “Those?” Missus Wltchle a>ked In reply. Really tny dear. 1 don't know for I haven't tasted any of the tilings on the bush yet. Suppose you pick some and try them. Raggedy Andy.” Why, they are candy covered peanuts,” Raggedy Andy cried as he tasted one and handed some to Raggedy Atiu and Missus Wltchle. “They are good.” said Raggedy Anu. “but Just you try some of these chocolate covered cherries. MM.MI" The two Raggedys and Missus Wltchle were so busy eating the different kinds \smm ffrnS j " * 1 ., T** • " of candles which grew upon the magical candy bush, none of them saw Minky come creeping up behind them. So, when he spraug out and caught Raggedy Ann, they were so surprised, Missus Wltchle and Raggedy Audy could not do anything but sit and watch Minky run away with Raggedy Ann under his arm. But what was their surprise when the great big. larg- man scrambled out from the bushes right iri front of them and sturted running after Minky and Raggedy Ann. "There are bushes to dodge around *n the direction Minky is taking, ’ cried Missus Wltchle as she got to her feet. “.So the great big. large man with whiskers all over his fare will tie sure to catch Raggedy Anu and Minky and then he will eat Raggedy Ann's candy heart.” “Can't you call your fhagical candy dogs and sic them on to the big, large uian with whiskers all over his face?” asked ltngge ly Andy. “We don’t want him to. get the Magical Wishing Pebble, for he is very selfish, I'm sure, and then when his wishes do not come true—and you know they won't if a person having the Wishing Pebble wishes for selfish things, like Minky does—then,” continued Raggedy Andy, “he will eat Raggedy Ann's candy heart." "But that will not make tho wishes eume true, either, will it?" asked Missus Witehie. “No, indeed,’’ Raggedy Andy replied, "but you see ho doesn't know that, and Minky has told him that It.ag-

Sure enough, just a? Missus Witehie said this, the big, large man with whiskers all over Ms face gave a jump and caught Mnky by hts coattails. “Ila, Iln. .Mister Slinky, now I have you," he cried as he took Raggedy Ann away from Minky and sat down upon the ground. Minky kicked and wiggled, but the big man placed Minky Hugos* his knee, and away back where Missus Witehie and Raggedy Andy stood they could hear the “paddy-whack*'' the man gave Minky. “Now, yon bad better skee-dtddle,” the big man laughed as he gave Minky * push and sent him head over heels, rolling across the meadow and disappeared Into the thick hushes at the other side. “There.” the man said a* he smoothed out Raggedy Ann's apron and placed her upon her feet, "I guess that will teach Mister Minky a lesson'.” “Aren’t yon going to take my candy heart?" asked Raggedy Ann in surprise, when the great, big. large man just sat upon the grass and langhed. “I though you were chasing Minky so thnt you could take the Magical Wishing Pebble nwu.v from him and then eat my candy heart,” Raggedy Ann said, as if she couldn't understand. “Dear me." the big, large msn said, “Do you know. Raggedy Ann, I forgot all about the Magical Wishing Pebble. “And I know that your candy heart is not a magical heart, so It wouldn't do me any good to eat it. There’s lots more fun earing the different candies growing upon the Magical Car.dy Bushes.” “I think so too.” langhed Raggedy Ann, “But Minky thinks the reason he cannot make his washes come • true with the Wishing Peble is because he need* to eat my candy heart, and it ts Just because he wishes selfish things.” “No one can have their wishes come true ' if they do not wish nice generons wishes." ' said the big man. ”1 am glad to hear you say that.” cried Miosu* Witehie as she and Andy walked up -to Raggedy Ann and the big man, “So if yon have changed from a selfish person into a generous person we can be good friends.” "Son bet we can.” langhed the big man. Y'ou Just tell me what to do. Missus Witehie, and you’ll see pretty soon that I have changed I guess if meat have been the magical soda water ” "Maybe it was." laughed Missus Witehie. as she rubbed upon her magic buttons. "Goodie,” the big man i ried as he saw tho change take place In his clothes. "You must have made mo into a policeman.” “That's just what I did,” laughed Missus Witehie, "so that you take cure of my wonderful Magic:;! Park for me. You can eat all the i cookies you want.” “Thank you so 1 much," the big policeman laughed. “I'll see if I can find Mister Minky right away and put him out of the wonderful Magical Park.” And Missus Witehie winked at Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy, for the 1 ig, new policeman, instead of walking In the direction Minky had run yvent ever towards the field where the Icing covered cookies grew.—Copyright, 1922. j

I intend to go down town tomorrow morning and pay our debts—and have enough left to live upon until you find what you want.” "Very well—so far as you are concerned, my dear. But when it comes to spending liarnick’s gift, you’ll have to count me out.” “You mean—l’ll have to choose between Barnick’s offer—and you?” I stammer and. "If I take —the money—l lose — you ?” "Can’t you see, Peggins? Just living side by side isn’t marriage. You ami I must see things alike or how can we be happy together?" “AYe thought we could. We thought you could go your way and I mine. AA'e prided ourseive.s on being pioneers in a new and better kind of marriage." “And now we find married life isn’t so easy to make over,” said Jack. “Just now it seems to me like any other partnership. In any combination of two human hciDgs, one has got to have the final word.” “An ’obsolete theory." I put In. “QutO different from our little scheme of equal rights, equal duties and ail that.

EXPECT SfiOO TO ATTEND CLUBS ’ CONVENTION Will Be First Biennial Since Passage of Equal Suffrage. BY CONSTANCE DREXEL. WASHINGTON, June 16.—The first biennial convention of the General Federation of Womens Clubs since American I women have had the vote through tho I nineteenth amendment, will open in Chautauqua. N. Y., with anywhere from 8,000 to 5,000 wonuju In attendance. In the lovely twenty-room mansion which is the new national headquarters of the federation here, Miss Lida Hafford, I director, has been busy preparing' material on Congress which will be presented to the federation. No feature of fhte ten-day program lasting through June 30 will be more importafnt than legislation, present and prospective. Asked what bills would come up for attention and discussion at the convention, Miss Hafford said the two most Immediate “were the Kahn bill, playing the work of the Interdepartmental social hygiene board under the Department of Justice and the Cable bill for Independent citizenship for married women. The former bi! 11s the more Immediate because if carries an aprpopriatlou of $323,000. thte present year’s appropriation running out on June 30, which Is the end of the fiscal year. Perhaps there could be no more conTincing proof of the growing participation of American women In our national and International political life than the j coming biennial convention. Two years ago the struggle for ratification in the thirty-sixth State was at its height. ' Os course many of the Western States and some of the Eastern ones already had suffrage, but they were so busy getting it for the rest of their sisters that the influence of women so far as national policies were concerned was nil and as a matter of fact, every student of American women’s Influence in politics knows ' that it* is the Eastern women who have waked up their Western sisters, at least so far as their relation to Congress and national policies are concerned. Two years ago, the® th£'”biennial convention in Des Moines could only pass resolntions urging every effort to induce a thirty-sixth State to ratify the- nineteenth amendment so it might finally be tacked on to the Constitution. There were no national headquarters in Wash- ; ington. Today the General Federation of ; Women’s Clubs is a member organization of the Women’s Joint Congressional Committee and of the National Council for the Reduction of Armaments, both of which are powerful factors in Washington. Miss Hafford is the club’s official rep--1 resentative on the congressional committee, and Mrs. William D. Phelan of Pittsburgh, who has been residing In Washington, on the counciL On the afternoon of June 21. Miss nafford will present before the convention the work of the joint congressional committee. She said the chairman of thdt committee, Mrs. Maud Wood Park, president of the League of Women Voters, would also be there to speak. That anew departure and shows the growing solidarity and cooperation nmong women's national organizations. They are going to stand together on certain things all women seem to feel most strongly about—child welfare, peace, security of the home, single moral standards. Mrs. Park also will be able to the women of the passage of the Shep-pard-Towner bill, behind which the power of the women's clubs was thrown through the women’s joint congressional committee. Although this bill Is the first great measure which women have won since they have had the vote, and ts finished so far as Congress is concerned, it is a bill carrying appropriations, which can be secured only if State Legislatures appropriate like amounts for protection of maternity and infancy hygiene. Therefore, the task is not finished. Congress may be Interested to hear that the Fordney-McCnmher tariff bill also will be up for cUscnsrion, according to Miss Hafford's forecast. In the past the women of the country have let the lawmakers tangle and untangle the tariff at will, with never a question as to the wisdom of the moves. If the women of the country, who are eeld to spend what is In the family pocketbook. if not on themselves, at least for their husbands and family, will pnt their minds on the tariff question, there may be another story to telL Besides the above measures and others before Congress, another new move will be International relations meeting, at which Mr. Thomas G. lYinter, president, will sresk of he* experiences as a memper of the advisory committee of tie Washington conference. Mrs. "Winter i* without opposition as president for the next two years and doubtless will be eiented. All In all, though the club's progrs m inelndes most of the subject* such as art and nutslc and problems discussed in the fifteen biennials of the past, nevertheless th!, the 16th biennial will be an indication of the new place of women In national affairs.—Copyright, 1922, by Pnblie Ledger Company.

long walks In the moonlight with the handsomest man we know aYd I was to keep still: Peggins. 1 hare kept still!” “But—but ” I stammered, not after all understanding, “you easily could be silent about that because—when—hare I taken a moonlight stroll with any man, handsome or not?” \ “My dear girl t Have you forgotten your Journey back to nature ia the pines with Bart Elliott? The first night of our motor tour?" , “AVhy Jack Madison! AA’hat are you talking about?” “Did it mean so little to you that you have forgotten Well, it means more to me. I can’t forget it. You and tho girls had gone to your rooms. I went Into the woods to smoke, couldn’t sleep. “I missed—yon—parted from you—the first night I saw you and Hart in the moonlight—that, tweed suit of yours and the gay red hat. I couldn’t comprehend, thought X saw a ghost, went to j your room aqd knocked. Jeanne said you were not there.” The situation that night flashed before my bind’s eye. and aroused in me that queer bit of perverseness in my nature which makes me dumb when I am unjustly criticized. I could not explain, I would not defend myself. Said I to Me: “Those pearls! I guess they've brought me as much bad luck as good,” —Copyright, 1922. (To Be Continued.)
