Mvsra CITY’S DELEGRTE Girl’s Attributes Must Be Dignity and Intellectuality, Says One. Indianapolis womanhood suggests dignity, intellectuality and gracefulness. That is the idea of June Winona Snyder, 718 Highland Ave., in a letter received by The Times Pageant Editor concerning the qualifications that Miss Indianapolis should possess. "When one thinks of Indianapolis womanhood, does he not instinctively recall such qualities as dignity, intellectuality, gracefulness?” she writes. "Surely the girl or woman, representative of the true epirit of our lovely city, manifests these qualities. “She also must be pure, courteous and sweet of manner, lovely of dlspojdtion, strong in character, matured. "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 Indianapolis at the Atlantic City Pageant will be chosen because of her embodiment of some at least, of these qualities. If she has such qualities she will Indeed be beautiful,” Miss Snyder Writes. A plea for the beautiful and common sensed working girl is made in a letter received from Mrs. Emma Brock, Brooklyn, R. R. 2. In her opinion Miss Indianapolis efcould be one who “don’t use powder or paint and face lotions, or cold cream or don’t pencil her eye brows or have her hair done up in puff, or don’t have bobbed hair. She should be . girl that works and who is not afraid to be out in the sun and don't roll her stockings down." Here is the opinion of L. Craig of the art department of the William H. Block Company: “When in quest of Indianapolis. I think it useless to try to decide whether she shall use flapper make-up (rouge, lip stick, etc.) or not, as some girls are so clever you never can tell it, anyhow. Let her be attractive, of course, and intelligent with personality and refinement. "With these attributes, whether she be dark or fair, short or tall, traveled the world over or never away from home before, she will be the same charming Miss Indianapolis in Atlantic City that we all know so well at home, a fitting representative." The Times Pageant Editor offers $lO for the best short letter giving the qualities that Miss Indianapolis should possess.

The Raggedies Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy j were sitting under a tree in the deep, j j deep woods, filled with fairies ’n I ! everything drinking a glass of soda I water through two straws.

And I you know that a magical glass of soda water is better (if that is possible) than the best soda j water you can ever buy ) at the stores. j And Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy were so happy, and they were j so busy laughing and talking and en- | joying the soda water, they did not ; ( hear any one in back of them, until ; he spoke in a very, very gruff voice, ! “What are you doing there?’’ Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy both jumped to their feet so suddenly, they overturned the glass of soda water. “Now see what you made us do!” Raggedy Ann said as she turned and saw a queer little creature standing laughing at them. “Why! I didn’t spill the glass of water," he replied. "I know you didn't,” said Raggedy Ann, "but it was impolite to speak so j loud right in back of us when we did j not even know you were there!" • "And besides! It wasn’t a glass of j water! It was soda water!” “Was it good?” the queer little creaj ture asked. Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy ' looked at each other in surprise. "Is I it possible that you have never, never | tasted ice cream sodas. Mister, Mister [ Whateveryournameis?" "My name is Skeezix,” the queer I little creature said, and then added, j "No, I have never, never tasted ice | cream soda water!" “Then you sit right there!” said !

"Then you’ll know how good It is!” "la it really good?” a little voice behind Skeezix asked and the Rag--1 gedys saw S coo tie Squirrel coming 1 down the tree. "M-m-m!” Skeezix replied to Scoctie : Squirrel, “just you taste it, Scootie.” "I’U wish for Soootie to have a glass, too,” said Raggedy Ann, and then as other little woodland creatures came up and looked at the glasses of soda water with longing In their bright little eyes, Raggedy Ann wished that every one of them would have a glass of soda water.

Cucumbers By BERTBA E. SHAPLEIOB Cooking Authority for \EA Service and Columbia Univereify. While cucumbers are in season one has to use them very quickly, either fresh or made into pickles and relishes. The very young cucumbers are better sliced, with oil and vinegar, but older ones are excellent cooked. Foreign people know this, and as cucumbers are one of the oldest known vegetables many interesting recipes have come down in history. In the Orient cucumbers are stuffed and baked. Cucumbers pared, cut in one-inch pieces crosswise, may be fried in a little oil or butter. Dip the pieces of cucumber in egg slightly beaten and diluted with two tablespoons water. Roll in flour or corn meal the pieces thus dipped and cook slowly in the fat. They should be soft all the way through and nicely browned. (Cut this out and paste it in your cook book.)

Reta Rabbit and the two little bunnyrabbit twins; there was Wallace Woodpecker and Winnie Woodpecker and Pauline Porkyplne, and Henry and Henrietta Hedgehog and a lot of I little Cheepyblrds. None of them had ever tasted nice, lovely ice cream soda water before and they laughed and chattered and twittered with happiness when they tasted it. "Let's make it a real for sure, great big, large picnic and invite all the creatures of the deep, deep woods,” suggested Raggedy Ann. So Charlie Chipmunk and Wallie Woodpecker ran and tiew through the woods and Invited every one they met. so that in a very’ short time there were hundreds of little woodland creatures sitting around Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy enjoying ice cream sodas. And when every one had had all the soda water they wished. Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy let each one wish for something they wanted the most and then Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy wished that each little woodland creature’s wish would come true. So, after the picnic, the deep, deep woods, filled with Fairies ’n’ everything, rang with the songs and merry chatter of the happy little woodland creatures. When the last little creature had run i away with his present. Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy smiled into each other's shoe button eyes, but said never a word, for, after giving so much happiness to others. It seemed to the Raggedys as if they were boing held in a loving hug of dear Mother Nature, and this made them too happy to talk. —Copyright, 1322, by Jrhnny Gruelle.

Here Is a fal. frock from Paris that could not decide whether capes or panels were to be most popular this fall. So it has both. The back panel folds up over one’s shoulders in the most deceptively simple fashion and is fastened on one shoulder. This frock is made of velvet combined with satin and is only one of many fall models of the same teriols. Velvet is expected to be especially fashionable this fall and winter.

THE INDIAN APOLIS TIMES

QfeRED HOUSE iJimbßT MY^ERYJgHMp

A revolver shot was heard two minutes alter ROBERT ABLETT. ne’er-do-well brother of MARK ABLETT. bachelor proprietor of The Red House, had been ushered into Mark's office on his return from a 16years’ absence in Australia. ANTONY GILLINGHAM, a gentleman adventurer and friend of BILL BEVERLEY, one of Mark's guests. arrived at that moment to find MATT CAYLEY. Marks' constant companion. pounding on the locked door of the office and detnandlng' admittance. The two men entered the room through a window and discovered the body of Robert with a bullet through the head. Mark was not to be found. Antony, who had ben invited by Cayley to remain at The Red House with Bill until the inquest is over, refuses to believe the theory of Inspector Birch that Mark murdered Robert. Several things arouse his suspicions. If the key of the office door ♦•as on the outside, could Mark have locked it? He asks Bill to tell him all he knows of Mark's characteristics. “Well, Mark fancies himself at arranging things. Ho arranges things, and it’s understood that the guests fell in with the arrangement. "Arranging things for you?” "Tea. Os course, it’s a delightful house and opportunities for every game or sport that’s ever been invented. But with it all, Tony, there’s a faint sort of feeling that —well, you've got to do as you're told.” “How do you mean?” "H#'b a devil for taking offense. That Miss Norris—did you see her? —she’; done for herself. I don’t mind betting what you like that she never cornea hero again.”

A woman In her hours of ease would have to be rather more than hard to please if the new summer lingerie couldn't do it. The shop windows compete with each other in displaying ttie goodlooking novelty-cotton underwear and nightwear that seems so appiopriate to summer dresses and summer weather. It is probably the contrariness of fashion that makes cotton underwear popular again, just as it becomes more expensive. At any rate, no one dis-

‘'’Why?'* Bill laughed to himself. "We were all In It, really—at least. Betty and I were. There’s supposed to be a ghost attached to the house. I.ady Anne Patten. Ever heard of her?” “Never.” “Mark told us about her at dinner one night. He rather liked the idea of there being a ghost In his house, you know; except that he doesn’t believe in ghosts. I think he wanted all of us to believe in her, and yet he was annoyed with Betty and Mrs. Calladlne for believing in ghosts at all. Rum chap. Wall, anyhow, Miss Norris —she’s an actress, some actress too—dressed up as the ghost and playt and the fool t. bit. And poor Mark was frightened out of his life. Just for a moment, you know.” “Where did the ghost appear?” “Down by the bowling-green. That’s supposed to be its haunts, you know.” “Was Mark very angry afterward?" “Oh. Lord, yes. Sulked for a whole flay. He got over it—he generally does. He's Just like a child. That’s really it, Tony; he’s like a child in j some ways. Asa matter of fact, he ! was unusually bucked with himself this morning.” "Is he generally In form?” "He’s quite good company, you j know, if you take him the right way. | He’s rather vain and childish —well, like I’ve been telling you-rand selfimportant; but quite amusing In his j way, and —” Bill broke off suddenly, j ”1 say, you know. It really is the limit, talking about your host Ilka : this.” “Don’t think of him as your host. . Think of him as a suspected murmerer with a warrant out against him.” “®h! but that’s all rot, ycu know." “It’s the fact. Bill.” “Yes, but I mean, he didn’t do it. He wouldn’t murder anybody. It’s a funny thing to say, but —well, he's not big enough for it.” "Suppose it was an accident, as Cayley says, would he lose his head and run away?” Bill considered for a moment.. “Yes, I really thing he might, you know. He nearly ran away when he saw the ghost.” "Well, now,” said Antony, "what about Cayley?" "How do you mean, what about him?” “I want to see him. I can see Mark perfectly, thanks to you, Bill. You were wonderful. Now, let’s have Cayley's character. Cayley from within.” Bill laughed in pleased embarrassment, and protested that he was not a blooming novelist. “Besides,” he added, .‘‘Mark’s easy. Cayley’s one of these heavy, quiet people, who might be thinking about anything. Mark gives himself away * * • Ugly, black-jawed devil, isn’t he?” “Some women like that type of ugliness.”

"Yes, that’s true. Between ourselves, I think the.jk’s one here who does. Rather a pretty girl at Jallands”—he waved his left hand—"down that way." "What’s Jallands?" "It’s a country cottage belonging to g widow called Norbury. Mark and Cayley used to go there a good deal together. Miss Norbury—the girl—has been here once or twice for tennis; seemed to prefer Cayley to the rest of us. But of course he hadn’t much time for that sort of thing.” "What sort of thing?” “Walking about with a pretty girl and asking her if she’s been to any theaters lately. He nearly always had something to do.” “Mark kept him busy?" "Yes. Mark never seemed quite happy unless he had Cayley doing something for him. He was quite lost and helpless without him. And, funnily enough, Cayley seemed lost without Mark." "He was fond of him?" "Yee, 1 should say so. In a protective kind of way. He’d size Mark up, of course—his vanity, his selfimportance, his amateurishness and all the rest of it—but he liked looking after him. And he knew how to manage him.” They reached the inn, and Antony went upstairs to his room. He re-

turned his brushes to his bag. glanced round to se that nothing else had been taken out, and went down again to settle his bill. CHAPTER VIII Antony’s bedroom looked 6ver the park at the back of the house. He was sitting on his bed, In shirt and .trousers, absently smoothing down his thick black hair with his brushes, \ when Bill shouted an ’Hallo!” through the door, and came In. “I say, buck up, old boy, I’m hungry,” he said. Antony stopped smoothing himself and looked up at him thoughtfully. “Where’s Mark?” he said. “Mark? You mean Cayley." Antony corrected himself with a little laugh. "Yes. I mean Ctyley. Is he down? I say. I shan’t be a moment, Bill.” He got up from the bed and went on briskly with his dressing. "Oh, by the way,” said Bill, taking his place on the >ed, “your idea about the keys is a wash-out.” "Why, how do you mean?” “I went down Just now and had a look at them. Some were outside and some Inside, and there you are. It makes It much less exciting. When you were talking about it on the lawn, I really got quite keen on the Idea of the key being outside and Mark taking It In with him.” “It’s going to be exciting enough,” said Antony mildly, as he transferred his pipe and tobacco Into the pocket of his black coat. “Well, let’s come down; I’m ready now.” Cayley was waiting for them In the hall. The three of them fell into a casual conversation. "You were quite right about the keys,” said Bill, during a pause. “Keys?” said Cayley blankly. “We were wondering whether they were outside or inside.” "Oh! oh, yes!” He looked slowly round the hall, at the different doors, and then smiled in a friendly way at Antony. “We both seem to have been right, Mr. Gillingham. So we don’t get much farther." "No.” He gave a shrug. “I just wondered, you know. I thought it was worth mentioning. “Oh, quite. Not that you would have convinced me, you know. Just as Elsie’s evidence doesn’t convince me.” “Elsie?” said Bill excitedly. Antony looked inquiringly at him, wondering ■who Elsie was. “One of the housemaids,” explained Cayley. “You didn’t hear what she told the inspector?” Cayley told them of what Elsie had heard through the office door that afternoon. “You were in the library then, of course,” said Antony, rather to himself than to the other. “She might have gone through the hall without your hearing.” “Oh, I’ve no doubt she was there., and heard voices. Perhaps heard’

SPARE THAT TOE! IS BKSDIE Chiropodists’ Association Says Toe Amputation Is Dumbest of Importation, By United Neict CHICAGO, Aug. S.—Women—spare that toe! This idea of amputating the little brother at the end of the line in the toe family to get on a narrower shoe is one of the dumbest fads of all the dumb ones from Europe that ever got past Ellis Island, and should be promptly razzed back to Europe, according to the unanimous sentiment ; cf the National Association of Chirop- | odists conven.ng here. Any theory that the chiropodists 1 say this merely because an eight-toed I society woman would mean less business for them than a ten toed society woman may be thrown into the ash j can at once, for the facts are, according to the chiropodists, nature provided ten toes and you can’t beat nature by just cutt.ng one off. Society Toes Expert Talks Dr. John Kenison. who has been handling society women's toes for nigh on thirty years, made this expert pronouncement: "Cutting off the little toe leaves the third toe unprotected. Nature lias given the little toe a thick skin to protect it, but. when It is cut away it leaves the third toe unprotected and is almost certain to cause all kinds of trouble.” Dr. Kenison says the toes of society women are no different from any one else’s toes, except sometimes they're better taken care of. A reporter can learn a lot at a convention, even a chiropodists’ convention. those very words. But ”He broke off, and then added impatiently, "It was accidental. I know it was accidental. What’s the good of talking as if Mark was a murderer?” Dinner was announced at that moment and as they went In he added, ‘WThat's the good of talking about it at all, if it comes to that?” "What, indeed?" said Antony, and to Bill’s great disapointment they talked of books and politics during the meal. Cayley made an excuse for leaving them as soon as their cigars were alight. He had business to attend to, as was natural. Bill would look after his friend. Bill was only too willing. "Let's go outside,” suggested Antony. "I want to talk to you.” "Good, man. What about the bowling green?” They finished their circuit of the green—“ Just in case anybody’s in the ditch, ’’ said Antony—and then sat down on the bench. "Now then.” said Bill. "We are alone.

RUSSIANS EAT CHILDREN American Officer Tells Tales of Cannibalism in Starving Land. LOS ANGELES, Cal.—Reports that starving Russians have been eating their own ohildren are not exaggerated. according to Cc.pt. F. Dunnet, of the steamer Orient, which has arrived jin Los Angeles after completing a I voyage to the Russian provinces on I the Black Sea with wheat for the Russian relief. According to Captain Dunnet, who saw service as a British officer during the war, there seems to be little hope for the Russian peasant being other than hungry and starving under the present regime. From what he learned while ashore, the captain said the workers would not produce anything because it would be taken from them by government emissaries. The producers have nothing left for their efforts and have grown hopeless and despondent, the captain said. Having nothing else to eat. he said, they are eating their own children under the most appalling conditions \ of starvation that could be imagined.

EQUAL PLACE FOR WOIUIENjS ASKED Ann Martin Believes Sex Have Same Number as Men In Congress. NEW YORK—Women voters In America should have equal representation with the men in Congress, Miss Ann Martin of Nevada asserted upon her arrival here from Europe, where she made a study of woman suffrage in England and Germany. English women are surpassing American women in political acumen and activity, she said. Miss Martin, after serving a time as president of the Nevada Suffrage Association, became chairman of the National Woman’s Party and was the first woman nominated for United States Senator. Thirty-Seven In Reichstag "There are thirty-seven women in the Reichstag in Germany, and whenever a question relating to women comes up the men leave it to them to discuss and decide,” said AlJss Martin. "In England numerous women’s organizations have combined to support feminine candidate. They have many equality laws, but the men who interpret them discriminate against women. The -women realize they have got to put women in those offices if they hope to put sex out of politics. "TJie Women’s Freedom League has adopted for its slogan ‘Three Hundred Women for Parliament,’ which makes a fifty-fifty representation A Then there is the women’s general™ committee, heads of organizations brought together by Lady Actor and representing approximately 1,900,000 women in trades and professions, church and reform movements, who are indorsing candidates. Parties Should Select "That is what we should do here The League of Women Voters and the National Woman’s Party, which during the suffrage campaign repre sented the conservative and the militant wings of the movement, should co-operate. They should let the two big parties select qualified women for political offices and then the women voters should go to these candidates and ask them if they stand for women first. If they do, let the women voters pledge their support during the campaign. Both these big organize tions have branches in every State. They could work for a half share of representation not only in Congress but in the State Legislatures. "In England they are developing this sense of equality and solidarity of sex more than here. The English women are, perhaps, going to show us the way to get equality." Marriage ala Mode Petting is one of the greatest amusements of flappers and cake eaters of today, but in few countries is there such freedom of speech and action as here. In China, for instance, not only is lovemaking taboo among young people, but it is forbidden i even to speak of love. An en- ™ gaged couple may not mention their coming nuptials. All is attended to by the parents.
