Detective Story Reading Forms Attorney’s Hobby; Collects Mystery Writing Declares Literary Structure Compares Favorably With Other Fiction; Discusses Curious Practices .in Authorship. BY BEATRICE BURGAN, lime* Woman'* Face Editor DETECTIVE story reading is a highly respectable pastime, we decided yesterday after talking to an Indianapolis lawyer, who is reticent about publicizing his hobby. His information and observations are too interesting to pass by, so we shall tell his story without his name. Because he "can't bear to throw anything away,” he has saved every detective and mystery story he ever has acquired, and having read all varieties, that means a sizable collection. He does not have a complete catalog of detective stories, although he

has listed such things as nom de plumes, interesting titles, curiosities and the like. "You can’t always find out the author’s real name,” he explains. “Women have written under men's names; men under women’s names, and sometimes the real mystery of the book is the anonymity of the writer.” "There is no need to read such stories furtively. Their demand proves that intelligent readers increasingly resort to them for effortless entertainment. Many of them are written well,” ‘bur informant pointed out. "In character delineation, suspense and dramatic play of personality they yield nothing to other works of fiction.” f The by-ways of mystery literature disclose many curiosities. One perfectly good detective story is available in Latin, which needs explanation. E. Parmalee Prentice, a son-in-law of John D. Rockefeller, had some modern books translated into Latin to induce his children to study the language. The result is that

Miss Burgan

Burton E. Stevenson’s “Mystery of the Boule Cabinet” now can be read in both languages. More recently an English pedagogue has rearranged and edited for like reason one of Cicero’s orations, subtitling it “More and Better Murders.” Not only have books and copyrights been bought and sold, but even literary characters are now the subject of commerce. Our mystery story authority advises us that the late E. W. Hornung’s popular character of “Raffles” is now the property of Barry Perowne, in two recent books, “The Return of Raffles” and “The Pursuit of Raffles.” Sherlock Holmes himself has “’suffered a sea change” by a bargain with Sir A. Conan Doyle’s representative, and has had lively adventures in a recent serial from the pen of anew author.

Just published is anew book by Bruce Graeme, solving to his satisfaction the uncompleted Dickens’ “Mystery of Edwin Drood,” in a modern Scotland Yard manner. Little has been wTitten about mysteries. Perhaps no one has attempted a bibliography of a subject of such rapid growth. Technique Discussed "There's a certain technique about the solution as well as the writing of mysteries,” our confidant explained. "If the reading of detective stories does not enlarge the mind, at least it can sharpen it. You can acquire real skill in solving a fictitious mystery.” A novelty is "Obelists En Route,” by C. Daly King, wno at the end of the book lists the clues which the reader should have noted as infallibly pointing out the criminal. Men and women of every profession have been attracted to the writing of detective stories. There is no record to show what type of writers have been most successful. It is perhaps no surprise to observe that American and English writers predominate in this field. The number of their stories translated into foreign languages is rather good proof of their popularity abroad. Poe Was Pioneer We could not obtain a list of the best mystery story writers. "After all,” we were told, “this is a matter of personal taste; which is not debatable. We all know that Edgar Poe is the father of the detective story. Conan Doyle is scarcely less influential in its development. Agatha Christie, Edgar Wallace, Earl Derr Biggers, and Margery Allingham are certainly among the leading favorites.” It may be difficult to pick out ■what to read next, but we are going to add the vitamin of the detective story to our literary diet. Our mystery authority is responsible for that.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN

Would you like to discuss >-our problems with a sympathetic adviser? Put your cose before Jane Jordan and read her comments in this column. Dear Jane Jordan—l have been going with a man since last June and we both are very much in love with each other. We both have been married and divorced. He has a litle boy about five years of age whom he is crazy about. A

couple of weeks he came to me and said he was going back to his exwife for the sake of his little boy. Every time he went to see him he cried and begged him not to leave. He said he didn’t love his wife and never would, and that I was the

Jane Jordan

only woman he cared for. I am sure he loves me but I guess a father’s love is the greater. I am trying hard to forget him but the longer he is gone the bluer I get. I feel like staying away from them all.' should I try to win him back or try f to find another? • BROKEN HEARTED AND LONESOME. Answer—You can forget this man unless you actually enjoy your gloomy, blue feelings. Some women cling to a lost love in a,sort of stubborn martyrdom which they maintain to hide the fact that they lack the courage to enter into anew experience. Since they failed in one love affair, they fear to fail in a second. Hence they idealize the first love as ah excuse to avoid the possible defeat of another. A readjustment such as you are now required to make- always is hard. Do not take a passive attitude toward it. “Sometimes I feel like staying away from them all.” Let your solution be active—increase your contacts, enlarge your interests, but don’t retire from the struggle. a a a Dear Jane Jordan—l am a widow 24 years old and I have two little girls. 3 and 4 years old. We have always lived with my people until the depression made it impossible. I have been staying with some friends who think a lot of my children and are willing for me to have them with me. I would be satified to nave them one at a time just so I can see them. My people think I am selfish and have no right to them. They won’t bring the children to see me for fear I will keep them. It isn’t that they object to the place I am staying, but they think so much of the children that they don’t seem to realize I have a right to them. I would like your honest opinion on the matter. UNDECIDED. Answer—You undoubtedly have a right to have your children visit you. Surely your people have some reason for not wanting to part with them which can not be traced to jealousy. Have you talked it out with them? It is too bad to disturb the children by conflicts between their elders. The questions should be settled by mature discussion out of their hearing. a a a t Dear Jane Jordan I am a young man 20 years old. I have never had what I consider to be a good time with a young lady. I attend college and work very hard all summer to save up the money to pay my way. I have chances to go out on dates but I am closely pressed for money and feel as if I shouldn't go. My parents are split up and I don't receive any help from them. I fliink I am entitled to a break. I would like to meet some goodlooking girl with a car who would take an interest in me. I am considered good-looking and manly. Some would say to my asking for a nice looking girl with a car. I “who wouldn't like to have one?” But will you please print this and see if you have any response? WAITING. Answer—What you do not realize is that you are not looking for a young lady so much as a substitute for your parents w r ho have winked out on you. You have to fend for yourself and you don’t like it. You cling to the childish belief that your life should be given to you. You are obliged to work for your education I but you wash to find your luxuries | without effort. Your attitude does not fit in with

Have a Hobby —" New Air Mail Stamps Received From Japan

m '' '• v . A V £*. €. Sofciqgcn / 9 twin * Jfo Central Avenue ' % X B No. A 727

BY MRS. C. O. ROBINSON Times Hobby Editor TT'ROM Yokohama, Japan, comes - the beautiful handpainted cover, here illustrated, franked with the new Japanese 914 sen air mail stamps and canceled on the first day of issue, March 1. The central figure on the stamp is a tri-motor cabin type monoplane in flight over water, with low hills and Fujiyarai perceptible in the background. Like all other Japanese stamps it is artistic and beautiful and in color, shades from pink to red. Its issuance was occasioned by the recent change in the airpost rate from BX48 X 4 to 9% sen. The cover was registered, which accounts for the number of stamps and the additional notations, and in the official cancellation the date is given in the current year, 34, not in the year of

things as they are and will bring you nothing. You want a young lady to take an interest in you, but you say nothing about taking an interest in her. You do not want her without certain material benefits which you can enjoy. I admire your courage in going after an education and advise you to carry the same spirit over into your emotional life. As it is you want something grand in the way of a young lady complete with car to drop right down in your lap, and you feel that it is nothing more than you deserve. I am afraid that you are doomed to disappointment, for nothing comes without effort. tt tt tt Dear Jane Jordan —I met a girl four years ago and fell in love at first sight. At the time she was going steady with another fellow. I waited two long years until he had quit her. Then we went together about seven months. I gave her* an engagement ring which she gave back after two months. I found out afterward that she thought she could get the other fellow back, but she didn’t. Is there a school where one can learn the psychology of women, or should one always take the bitter with the sweet? TWENTY-FIVE AND A BACHELOR. Answer—The first thing a student of the psychology of women learns is to accept a woman’s instinctive “no.” It is evident that this young lady is more interested in another man than she is in you. Even if you won her it is doubtful if you would be happy together. She regards you as “second best” and try as she may she can not alter her attitude. There are plenty of books in the public library, which will instruct you in psychology if you have the intellectual curiosity to look for them.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

the reign 8 as in the pictoral cachet cancelations. The ideographs adjoining the address read “Bei Koku Yuki,” meaning “Send to the Country of Rice.” In olden days the wealth of a daimyo, an important person in Japan, was judged by the number of koku, measures of rice, which he owned. Therefore, when Japan was opened to trade, America, because it was cohsidered a very wealthy country, was called “bei koku,” rice country. Yuki means send. The postofflee at Fujiyami will he opened on July 10 and orders now may be sent if cachet covers are desired. Send 10 cents in coin for each cover, to Karl Lewis, Box 69, Yokohama, Japan. Remember foreign postage is 5 cents. tt tt tt A REPORT on the Byrd Little America covers states that part of the 56,000 sent by collectors, left the Bay of Wales on the Jacob Rupert, Feb. 5, and arrived at New Zealand Feb. 18. The mail 'boat Aorangi carried them on to Vancouver, B. C.. on March 23, and they should arrive in the east on April 1. The Bear of Oakland left Little America Feb. 26, with the remaining covers and reached New Zealand March 13. The covers were sent on the Makura from Wellington, New Zealand, on March 20, and should arrive in San Francisco on April 16. Because of several requests, the rules for sending cover, stamped addressed envelopes, for cancellation at Little America now are repeated. Send a self-addressed envelope and cash or money order for 53 cents to the postmaster, Washington, D. C., and instruct him to forward it to Little America. Mail for the second trip will be accepted until November of this year and will be returned in the spring of 1935. An official cachet will be applied to the second shipment. tt tt tt For the benefit of their World War Veterans' Fund, the American War Mothers are taking orders for first day covers of the Mothers’ Day stamp. May 1. A charge of 15 cents for a single stamp or 25 cents for a block of four, sent air mail, on a specially cacheted envelope. Send orders to Albert F.

Indianapolis, Lawrence Iverson, mail cferk, sends the ship's newspaper, The Hoosier, with the interesting news that the fleet will leave the Pacific on April 9, for a presidential review in New York, May 31. Collectors of navy cancellations should get covers aboard their favorite ships before that time, as the schedule is interesting and may include a presidential cruise. The Hoosier says also that Miss Lucy Taggart, the ship's sponsor, recently added to the Indianapolis collection of autographed books by Indiana authors, “The Magnificent Obsession,” by Lloyd C. Douglas, a native of Columbia City. a u tt I WAS the fortunate recipient of one of the handsome cacheted cards which were posted on the fast mail leaving Chicago March 10, 1933, canceled en route and mailed from Omaha with the compliments of the Burlington railroad. The cards commemorated the golden anniversary of the first* fast mail train in the west, which on March 10, 1884. left Chicago for Omaha. The run has continued without interruption for fifty years under the motto of the United States postal service, “neither snow nor rain nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.” tt tt tt On March 12 the address of Hoover Brothers, publishers of the Precancel catalog, was given incorrectly as 1216 Broadway, New York. The correct number is 1261. My apologies to those who were inconvenienced by the return of their letters. The Maryland commemorative stamp should be available at the Indianapolis postoffice and the first day covers should be in the hands of collectors today. To the surprise of every one the stamp was issued in red which is not in accordance with the Postal Union ruling—that United States 3-cent stamps should be purple. The Byrd stamp in blue also was a departure from these regulations. The last of a series of three historic covers in connection with the Maryland tercentennary will be issued on April 21. Send 5 cents for each cover to the Historic Cover Club, 3210 Normont avenue, Baltimore, Md. Cecil K. Calvert's name inadvertently was omitted from the original list of Indana persons interested, intimately, in the Maryland celebration. Mrs. Allan Henqricks, 1650 North Talbot street, was discovered also as a descendant of the Maryland settlers. Her ancestor who came over with Calvert is buried on the family plantation which overlooks the Patcmac river and is owned today by Mrs. Hendrick’s brother.

Modern Rug Shampooing Eliminates One of Hard Spring Housecleaning Jobs W. O. Jones Company Gives Service Having* Nothing in Common With Old Carpet Beater Method. BY HELEN LINDSAY WHEN everyone else gets a lazy feeling of spring fever the housewife faces the busiest season of the year. Years ago she hung up her rugs on the clothesline, and had them beat with a carpet beater. Now, with modern rug cleaning methods, this part of house cleaning has been simplified. Rugs now are shampooed, with the same preparation which is used to shampoo hair. At the W. O. Jones Rug Cleaning Company, 4440 North Keystone avenue, all rugs, whether they are imported Orientals, old early American

rugs, or domestic woven rugs, are treated by this process. They are placed first in a machine which revolves and shakes loose the encrusted dirt. Then they are placed on a scrubbing floor, and shampooed with a cocoanut oil soap. The huge brush which scrubs them is operated by electricity, and revolves as it scrubs. Water rinses off the dirt, and the rugs are run through a huge wringer, rollers of which are steel. The pressure of these rollers leaves the rug practically dry. It is next hung in a drying room for four or five hours. If the rug is flimsy after cleaning, it is re-sized. Quality in rugs show’s up most after cleaning. The difference in rug prices is often caused by the kind of wool used in them. Wool pulled from the bodies of sheep after they are slaughtered is used in cheaper rugs. Clipped wool retains the natural oil, and

will wear longer. Oriental woolen rugs all are made from clipped wool. tt tt tt B tt tt Recipes for Drinks Combined With Tray '['ROM the old bartender of the Hoffman House in New York, recipes’ -T for the mixing of drinks popular with the old-timers have been culled, and placed conveniently on a serving tray, shown at H Lieber’s. The tray has a glass top, and a rim around the top to keep glasses and bottles from sliding off it when it is carried. Twenty old drinks are listed along the sides of the tray, with numbers beside them. Among them are Bronx cocktails, dry Martinis, side cars, between the sheets, and a Manhattan dry. Four slots are in the top of the tray. A dial in the side of the tray shows the corresponding number of the drink to be irvxed. When the number is shown, directions for mixing the particular drink appear in the other slots. tt tt tt tt tt t: Dry Martini Not to Be Shaken CAUTION against shaking a dry Martini and a Manhattan dry,is given in these directions. Ingredients for these drinks should be placed in a deep, tall container, with ice. They should then be stirred with a spoon or mixer, and the drink strained when it is served. For a milder drink, Lieber’s is showing a unique new tea ball, in the form of a tiny silver plated tea kettle. It is perforated, in the same fashion as an ordinary tea ball, and is suggested as appropriate for one of the new bridge prizes, n tt tt tt tt a Beauty Expert Visits Wasson's WOMEN who have used Barbara Gould cosmetics will be interested in meeting Miss Gould at H. P. Wasson’s, where she will be in the toilet goods department all week. Miss Gould is known internationally as a beauty expert. She will give advice this week on care of the complexion, make-up and personal charm.
