Martha Lee HER COLUMN Martha Lee will be glad to answer qaefttions of Times* readers retarding problem* of love, clothes and etiquette. For personal reply, send stamped, self* addressed envelope. Question* will he withheld from publication at the writer*' request. My Lady Fashion nods her head and says, “Down,” and skirts drop from the knee to the ankle. Indianapolis, defiant for months, j gradually is giving way before Flashj ion’s onslaught. In the store windows, skirts drag on the floor. On the street they are worn in varying lengths, from the knee length of last year to the newer lengths. Because the American woman is giving up the short skirts so grudgingly predictions are made that by next spring a “happy medium” will be reached. Answer to GRACE: It is true that ' long skirts will be the fashion this i winter. However, if you are short of j stature, do not wear your skirts too j long or you will look ridiculous in- 1 stead of stylish. A seven or eight inch length should be about right j for you. Answer to F. W. C.: 1. It is a girl's privilege to refuse engagements with | men. just as it is a man's privilege i to ask for engagements. However.: the girl must observe rules of courtesy in her refusals. She should | not break an engagement with one man in order to accept one with another man just because the likes the second man better. If she does break an engagement she should not make any other in I its place. 2. Crepe materials are much better J than taffetas this year. Dear M ! ss Lee: We are two girls. 18 and 19 years old. IVe work in the same office. The men in the office ! are very nice to us and two of them want us to have dates with them. These men have always treated us with respect and we want to know whether we should go with them. HAZEL AND VIOLET. 1 Answer: You do not tell rne how long you have known the men. If it has been a few weeks, do not go with them. Even if you have known them ! for some time in a business way. find out what you can about them before accepting engagements. Os course, you must be guided by your own i judgment of the men. Answer to Jessie: Don’t stop I school to go to work, even though l you do know where you could get o good position. Finish your high school course. Then you will he able to get just as good a position and probably a better one, and you will be able to advance much more rapidly.

CHAPTER XVII The Champagne Bombardment The next morning Lanyard lay luxuriously bedded and with a single problem to nurse. What had her pillow advised Liane Delorme? Liane was amply able to surprise him, and did. It was without ceremony that she walked in on him at length. “Well, my dear friend!” she said gravely, halting by the bedside, “do you feel able to travel?” “Travel?” Lanyard made a face of dismay. “Are you then in such haste to be rid of me, Liane?” “Not at all.” Liane found herself a chair and accepted a cigaret. “And where do we go, mademoiselle ?” “To Cherbourg, there to take a steamer for New York.” Fortunately it was Lanyard’s cue to register shock. “But, my dear friend, why America?” “You gave me credit for having some little influence in this world of I aris. I have used it. What I have learned enables me to assure you tliat the Montalais jewels are on their way to America.” “But if I am to sail for America today—” “Tomorrow, from Cherbourg, at eight in the morning." “llow am I to get my passport vised?” “I have seen to that. You are no longer Paul Martin alias Andre Duchemin, but Paul Delorme, my invalid brother, still suffering from honorable wounds sustained in the great war. Liane Delorme threw away her cigaret and rose. "You understand, we leave as soon as you are dressed?" “Perfectly. By what train?” “By no train. We motor to Cherbourg.” She was at the door when Lanyard stayed her with, “One moment, Liane! What about Dupont?” Simple mention of the man was enough to make the woman wince and lose color. “Well, and what of him?” "Have you reflected that, since Dupont got In after you came home, his accomplice in your household Is most probably one of those who were up at that hour. Who were they?” “Only two. The footman, Leon and Marthe. my maid.” Lanyard said. “Open that door!” in a tone sharp with such authority that Liane Delorme Instinctively obeyed. The woman whom Lanyard had seen that morning coming down the stairs with the lighted candle entered rather precipitately. “Pardon, madame,” she murmured, and paused. “I was about to knock.” Marthe hinted at rather than exo outed a courtesy and withdrew. Liane shut the door behind her, and reapproached the bed, trembling with anger. “You mean to take her with you?” ”1 did. until this happened.” “And now will you tell me that Dupont knows nothing of your intention to motor to Cherbourg today?”

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

“No ** *” Disconsolate, Liane sank down into the chair. “Now I dare not go,” she mused aloud. “Yet I must! * * * What am I to do?” “Courage, little sister! It Is I who have an idea.” Liane lifted a gaze of mute inquiry. “What automobile are you using for our trip this afternoon?” “My limousine for you and me.” “And Marthe: how Is she to make the journey?” “In the touring car, which follows us with our luggage.” “Who drives the limousine?” The woman hesitated, looked aside, bit her lip. “Asa matter of fact, monsieur,” she said hastily, “It is the boy who drove us through the Cevennes. Monsieur Monk asked me to keep him pending his return to France.” Lanyard had the grace to keep a straight face. He nodded gravely. “You make it all perfectly clear, little sister.” “Here Is the plan. At the last moment you will decide to take Leon with you. “Toward evening we will let the touring car catch up. We will exchange cars with Marthe and Leon, leaving the latter to bring on the limousine while Jules drives for us. Whatever happens then, we may feel sure the touring car will get off lightly.” It was 4 o’clock when the expedition for Cherbourg left the door of Llane’s town house. The limousine was leading with Jules at Its wheel; the touring car trailing, with the footman, Leon, as driver. In St. Germain en-Laye lanyard | first noticed the gray car. It stood i incongruously round the corner, at i the door of a wine shop; the fat faced I man of Lyons was lounging in the ! door, sucking at a cigarette and watching the traffic. Lanyard said nothing at the time. ! but later, when a long stretch of straight road gave him the chance, verified his suspicions by looking back to see the gray car lurking not less than a mile and a half astern; the Delorme touring car driven by Leon keeping a quarter of a mile in the rea of the limousine. These relative positions remained approximately unchanged during most of the light hours of that long • evening, despite the terlfle pace which Jules set In the open country. At about seven they dined from the hamper which, with I Jane’s jewel case in its leather disguise of a aim pie traveling bag. constituted all the limousine's load of luggage. Lanyard passed sandwiches through the front window to Jules, who munched them while driving like a speed maniae. and with the same appalling non chalance washed them down with a tumbler of champagne. A luminous iliac .willght vied with the street lamps of Caen when the limousine rolloll through the city J .an yard conferred with Jules through the window. “Beyond the town,” he said, “you will stop. I think it would be advisable to have a little engine trouble.” “Very good, sir.” said Jules without looking around. Then he added;

in a voice of complete respect: “Quite so, sir. What’s the idea?” “I presume you set some value on your skin?” “Plump crazy about it.” "Mademoiselle Delorme and I are afflicted with the same idiosyncrasy. We want to save our lives, and we don’t mind saving yours at the same time. In a gray car which has been following us ever since we left St. Germain is the man who—l believe—murdered Monsieur le Comte de Lorgnes on the Lyons express, and who—l know—tried last night to murder Mademoiselle Delorme.” “And I suppose that, in his bighearted, way, he wouldn't mind making a bag of the lot of us tonight.” “I’m afraid you are right. Our plan is to change cars with Leon and Marthe; the gray car will pass and go on ahead before we make the shi£t; then you. mademoiselle and I follow in the touring car, the others in the limousine.” "Ah-h!” Jules used the tone of one who perceives enlightenment as a blinding flash. "Marthe and Leon are in on the dirty work, too, eh? I shan’t shed a solitary tear if sorne-

thing sad happens to them in this ’bus tonight.” The plan was carried out in a suburb of Caen; the gray touring car tore by in a cloud of dust as Lanyard and Liane shifted to the touring car with Jules as driver. Lanyard established himself in the tonneau. “How long, Jules, will Leon need?” — “Five minutes, madame, if he takes his time about it.” They drew away from the limousine so quickly that in thirty seconds its headlights were all that marked its stand. A bend in the road blotted out these lights. There was no talllight visible on the road before them. Lanyard touched Jules on the shoulder. “Switch off your lights,” he said—“all of them. Then find a place where we can turn off and wait till Leon and Marthe pass us ” Jules picked out the mouth of a narrow lane, stopped, and backed into It. In four minutes by Lanyard’s watch a blue-white glare leapt quivering past the bend, and lay horizontal with the road as the car bored past. Shoot, Jules—follow his rear lamp” cried Lanyard.

Below, at the foot of the hill, the headlights of another car, standing at some distance and to the right of the. road, furnished lurid Illumination to the theater of disaster. Something, its nature just then mysterious, had apparently caused Leon to lose control of the heavy car, so that it had shikked Into a ditch and capsized. Four men were swarming round the wreck. Two were helping the driver out, two others having their gallantry in performing like service for Ihe maid rewarded by a torrent of vituperative denunciation, half hysterical and wholly infuriated. But the freedom of her gestures, which was rivaled only by that of the language, the disheveled, storming figure of Marthe was manifestly uninjured. And In another moment Leon found his feet and limped toward the others. Lanyard drew attention to a dark serpentine line that lay like a dead snake upon the lighted surface of the road. Liane Delorme breathlessly demanded; “What is it?” “An old trick,” Lanyard explained: “A wire cable stretched across the road, about as high as the middle of the windshield.” He fondled pistol which Jules had handed him: "Now before they wake
