A Question for the Police Department of Our City. James Sharp, a respectable, hard working colored man was killed by Officer Walter B. Burroughs in his (Sharp's) own home August 3, 1928. Sharp had committed no crime and Burroughs had no warrant for his arrest or warrant to search his premises. Burroughs was chasing boys (juveniles) who are under the Juvenile Department of Virginia and subject to trial for offenses only in the Juvenile Court here. presided over by Judge J. Hoge Ricks. These boys had committed no crime. They were seen loitering on a corner and when spoken to ran from the officers. Burroughs mistook James Sharp, a man fifty years of age for a boy, William Branch and he killed Sharp. He admitted he beat him with a blackjack and shot him three times inside of Sharp's own house, the length of a room from the entrance. Burroughs was in citizen's clohes. He did not display his badge of authority and he did not read a warrant to James Sharp. It was too dark to see a badge and he had no warrant with him to read. What do the liberal minded white citizens think of this happening and what will they do about it? (H's. G. and M. p. 95) Before killing, the accused veniently and safely can, in order to invite a continuance of the shedding human blood. I treat, but the assault, as ingerous.

Before killing, the accused must have retreated as far as he conveniently and safely can, in order to avoid the assault, and that not to invite a continuance of the assault, but from a real tenderness of shedding human blood. But in his own house one need not retreat, but the assault, as in other cases, must be immediately dangerous. If the party slaying made the first assault, he must quit the combat and retreat as far as he safely can. Otherwise no necessity will make the killing excusable, even though retreat is made impossible by the adversary's fierceness. He cannot allege a necessity, which he himself wrongfully occasioned. This is the law that did not go to the jury in the Walter B. Burroughs' case, the accused being charged with killing James Sharp after he had invaded his home in search of a juvenile, who admittedly had committed no crime and for whom he had no warrant, and in a house, for which he had no search warrant. Burroughs was acquitted. (Article I. Section I.) "Equality and Rights of Men: That all men are by nature equally tree and independent, and have certain inherent rights, of which, when they enter into a state of society, they cannot by any compact, deprive or divest their posterity; namely, the enjoyment of life and liberty, with the means of acquiring and possessing property, and pursuing and obtaining happiness and safety. The above is an extract from the Bill of Rights, Constitution Virginia and not from the Am endments in the Constitution of the United States. It was not read to the jury in the Burrough's case, concluded Wednesday hight, October 24, 1928 with a verdict of acquittal. (Constitutoh of Virginia, Bill of Rights Article I, Section 8) "That no man shall be deprived of his life, or liberty, except RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY OCTOBER 27, 1928 by the law of the land, or the judgment of his peers." .This section was not read to the jury in the Burrough's case concluded with a verdict of acquittal.

That general warrants, whereby an officer or messenger may be commanded to search suspected places without evidence of a fact committed, or to seize any person or per sons not named, or whose offense is not particularly described and supported by evidence, are grievous and oppressive and ought not to be granted." This constitutional guarantee was not read to the jury in the trial of Walter B. Burroughs, concluded Wednesday night, October 24, 1928 with a verdict of acquittal. A remarkable scene was staged in the Hustings Court of the City of Richmond, Tuesday, October 23 1928, Judge W. Kirk Mathews presiding. The jury was out in deciding a whiskey case. It filed in, the clerk and corrected the verdict with the consent of counsel for the prosecution and the defense. Then the jurors in the case of Waltr B. Burroughs were called. Two of them had scruples against the infliction of capital punishment. PLEA OF NOT GUILTY. One juror stated that he knew Burroughs. The Judge told him to stand aside, but upon consent of counsel for both side he went into the jury box tentatively but was later stricken off the permanent list. Another juror complained of his hearing and he was told to stand aside. Finally twelve jurors were selected. Walter B. Burroughs was told to stand up and the indictment was read to him with the final wind up: Are you guilty or not guilty? Burroughs replied, "Not guilty." The list of witnesses was called and they were sworn. THE FATAL WOUNDS Moses Forcey, embalmer for Funeral Director R. C. Scott testified, "I live at 1207 N. 26th St. He said he found James Sharpe at 809 G'bert Avenue. Saw the body on August 1, 1928 between ten and ten thirty.

Dr. Joseph T. Hill staged a successful meeting at the Second Epistle Church last Monday night, when the very able John L. Webb, the well-known leader of the Woodmen of Union and its official representative delivered a short but enlightening address to a large audience telling of the advantages of that great organization and of its fine Bath House at Hot Springs, Arkansas, where the main offices are located. Mr. Webb stated that in 1913 his Order had a membership of 82, which has since been increased to 75,000, both male and female. He set forth the benefits accruing from membership therein. His remarks had been preceded by a most enjoyable program, the choir being in full. Mr. Tyne sang a solo, while Miss Louise Jackson charmed the audience with a recitation. MANY JOINED ORGANIZATION Master of Ceremonies George T. Walker was at his best and Rev. J. W. Goodgame had charge of the organizing or a lodge here. The names of those who came forward to join were announced as being 41. The National Organizer will be here next week. A collection was lifted and benediction was announced by Rev. M. C. Kuffin. A banquet was tendered to Mr. Webb at Slaughter's Cafe and toasts and short addresses were delivered by many of those present. Moderator E. F. Johnson and President John T. Taylor and his staff of officers were in charge. Those present were John T. Taylor, R. M. Brown George T. Walker, B. A. Cephas, C. Bernard Gilpin, William A. Jordan, W. S. Banks, James T.

There was a bullet hole a half inch from the sternum. On the right side a bullet between the fourth and fifth rib. Sternum is the breastbone. There were no cuts on Sharp's body. An abrasion was on Sharp's hand. Attorney Alfred E. Cohen con ducted the direct examination. Mr. Brommer started to cross examine Forcey and then immediately stopped He afterward recalled him and brought out the fact that Sharp had an abrasion on the back of his hand ag though he had fallen against something. LUCY FREEMAN TESTIFIES. Lucy Freeman said: "I live at 511 N. First Street. I was down at Sharp's house. I was outdoors sitting at the back with James Sharp. I went there some minutes to ten. I was down there to see his sick daughter. Boys came rushing around the side. One came first and two right behind him. He curved around and none went into the house of James Sharp. I asked for James Sharp's daughter. She was not there. Me and Mr. Sharp got up and went into the house. I was in front. The gun fired. I looked back. I saw Mr. Sharp in the hands of the officer. I ran up the steps. She identified William B. Burroughs by saying the man (Burroughs) put her in mind of the officer. As she could see the officer did not have on uniform. She later Burroughs looked like the man. The door is low. I have to stoop over to go in the door. The officer made no statement at all. I only heard 2 shots.' October 28, 1928. 11:15 A.

In loving remembrance of my sister Lucy Cuvillay, who died of heart trouble at her residence 1512 West Cary Street. Richmond, Virginia. Friday October 5, 1928. One by one our family joins the funeral march to the grave until now only three of us nine children remain to mourn the death of those gone before. The deceased was born at Scottsville, Albemarle County, Virginia a daughter of the late Robert M. and Martha Ann Carter. In 1878 the family came to Richmond to live and while on a visit to New York the deceased met and married Mr. William C. Cuvillay a native of the Dutch West Indies. From New York they made their home in Chelsea, Mass., where two children were born to their marriage union. She was soon left a widow with these two young children for whom to care and to educate, which she accomplished through many hardships and much endeavor, after coming back to Richmond on the advice of her father and elder sister. She proved a good mother living and leading an unright Christian life as a member of the Second Baptist Church over 45 years. Her dath was a great shock to her two brothers and sister, to her son and daughter and also to the neighbors among whom she lived. Her funeral was preached by the Rev. E. D. Lewis, pastor of the River View Baptist Church, assisted by the Rev. James T. In her death her son and her daughter lost a fond mother; the Church a devoted member; the civil and secret sodettes a loving companion; while we. one sister and two brothers will sit in sadness mourn- IN MEMORIAM COL. JENNINGS C. WISE SPEAKS THE NEGROES ASK ADVICE WILL NOT ADVISE THEM HOW TO VOTE. He Suggests Not to Vote at All. Must Have Good Reasons States Mr. Herbert Hoover's Positions. By reason of what I have been saying in the press numerous Negroes have asked me to advise them what they should do in this campaign. This was gratifying because it indicated I was not deemed hostile to the colored people of Virginia. But I was compelled to say I could not advise them how to vote. That, they must determine for themselves. I can only advise them not to vote at all unless they have in mind a very good reason for doing so, and above all not to be voted collectively, that is, under the orders of any racial organization; this for the reasons set out in my article of last week entitled 'The Truth Shall Set Ye Free.' Yes, it is true that Mr. Hoover like Col. Anderson in Virginia has refused to offer any reward for the colored vote as such in the way of appointment to office over white people. But in that position there may be a more real regard for the Negro race than a sudden appeal for their vote by the Smithites coupled with the circulation of speeches among white people designed to inflame their prejudices. Plainly, the Negro should vote in this campaign on some other basis than any campaign promises the political agents of either party may have made to them. Rumors have reached me that despairing of herding all the Negroes to the polls to vote for their candidate, the Smithite leaders are planning to play a trick upon the Hoover ites. The truth I have no way of knowing, but it is said money is being raised among the Smithites to stage large Negro Hoover demonstrations in Richmond, Norfolk and Petersburg at the last moment which will be used to the prejudice of both Mr. Hoover and your race. This would be in line with the undoubted duplicity of the policy to which they have already resorted. Do not be deceived. For the good not of Mr. Hoover but of yourselves, refuse to engage in any political demonstrations. This is a bitter campaign. You can only prejudice your interests by becoming involved in it as a separate racial group. Vote as your conscience dictates but quietly and in an individual way, and I beg you not to allow yourselves to be exploited as a race. It is extremely important to you that however the election may go, the colored people be not charged with the result. So let the colored people discourage Negro parades and take no part in them, no matter for whom they intend to vote. A long while I have hesitated over writing this letter for fear it would be misconstrued, but a great many colored people have talked with me and I am particularly anxious that what I have said to them be recorded. Therefore I will thank you to publish this letter. Editor ''The Planet'', 31l N. Fourth St., Richmond, Va.

Thursday evening being Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. night, Professor W. H. Spurlock of Virginia University delivered a large audience with his captivating logic and refined presentations on the church auxiliary. On Friday night the members and pastor enjoyed a pleasant evening among themselves. Few friends were present to make merry with them. On Sunday morning the 21st Rev. Henry Morris Moore, D. D. Pastor or Ebenezer Baptist Church, Charlotte, N.

GOOD NIGHT! Petroleum Supplants Castor Oil as Airplane Lubricant TAKING OPP NEW YORK.—Castor oil has been virtually supplanted by petroleum oil as a lubricant for airplane motors and racing automobiles in the United States, while in Europe it is still in use for most of the high class gasoline motors, it is set forth in a bulletin issued here by the American Research Foundation. "Iimprovements in the lubrication field by chemists employed by the great American petroleum companies including the Sinclair Refining Company and the Standard group have been responsible for the replacement of castor oil by the products of petroleum," says the bulletin. "Perfected petroleum lubricants, it has been found, meet the extreme demands of American airplane motors formerly lubricated with castor oil. Moreover, these petroleum oils have been adopted as professional automobile racing润滑剂 in the big American sweepstakes because they withstand the THE START tremendously high motor temperature elimination of disagreeable feature and still maintain an oil film on petroleum oil is lower priced the cylinder walls and pistons. "The disagreeable features in the use of castor oil, such as the noxious odor and its detrimental effects on the motor due to oxidizing and turning to acid have been eliminated by the substitution of petroleum. "Automobile oil will suppress that petroleum oil will supplant castor oil in European countries within the next few years. They point out that with its efficiency of operation and elimination of disagreeable features, petroleum oil is lower priced than castor oil, in spite of the fact that petroleum bears a high import duty in most European countries while the raw products from which castor oil is refined bear an extremely low tariff. In France, for instance, the customs rate on high grade petroleum lubricating oil is as high as 101.85 francs per 100 kilos while the rate on castor oil is only nominal. Yet the petroleum lubricant sells at a lower price to the consumer than castor oil." ```markdown ``` THE OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME You Know What a Good Dictionary Costs You You know what a Webster's Dictionary for School purposes will cost You.

The American Association for the Advancement of Atheism demands a high powered radio station in New York City and does not get it, although the easiest way to make an atheist ridiculous is to let him talk. It is hard to understand how anybody could talk atheism, knowing that his voice propelled by a power beyond comprehension, travels around the world through the mysterious ether. Atheists, young ones, especially, might meditate on one of Bacon's collected apothegms: Simonides, being asked of Hiero, "what he thought of God," asked a seven night's time to consider of it; and at the seven nights' end he asked a fortnight's time, at the fortnight's end, a month. At which Hiero marvelling, Simonides answered "that the longer he thought upon the matter the more difficult he found it." The more glibly you answer King Hiero's question the less you know. Congratulations to Secretary Wilbur, who has ordered for our navy two dirigibles that will be the biggest in the world. They will be three times as big as the Los Angeles, one third bigger than the German giant Count Zeppelin and each will carry, under the great gas bag, five airplanes for scouting. The Goodyear Zeppelin Corporation will build them and friendly nations abroad are informed that we do not intend to be taken by surprise. A fleet of such dirigibles, each carrying fifty tons of explosives and modern war gas, able to unleash one hundred fast destructive planes, could leave with Uncle Sam's compliments a visiting card in Europe or Asia that would not soon be forgotten. We make war on no nation, but we should be ready and able to fill with subsequent regret any one attacking William W. Breek, retired business man, fell dead while playing golf. He was sixty-four years old. At sixty-four, make no violent effort, unless a good doctor has pronounced your heart "fool proof." Golf is for good men that play, as they should, talking, laughing, walking slowly. It's dangerous torr, those that strain and serve to better them. Subscribe to New Sculptured Groups Just Unveiled Acclaimed by All Critics as High Art THE FOUNDATION OF THE NEW YORK CITY MEMORIAL Sculpture as an art was being brought to perfection by the Greeks more than 2,000 years ago. The profound messages of master sculptors, who were often philosophers, have come echoing down the dim corridors of time, a perpetual influence for good. Immense sums have been spent in unearthing ancient ways of the Greek masters, the influence of sculpture has steadily grown upon man. Today it occupies a constantly rising place of importance, particularly in America where it is being added to imposing skyscrapers, banks, cathedrals, homes and indeed most every type of structure. Hundreds of carloads of Indiana limestone are being used for that purpose this year because it lends itself so admirably to attractive treatment and perhaps, too, because many of the outstanding prize DAY PHONE, RAN. 1903 W. A. PRICE, GENERAL DIRECTOR Spacious Rooms for Meet OFFICE AND W 700 N. 17TH STREET, PROMPT SERVICE IN CITY Remember, old gentlemen, that whether you go around in 130 or 103, the cosmos will roll on, just the same. Treat an old heart as you would a delicate vase, not as you would treat an old rubber boot. Americans are not going backward, PHYSICALLY, at least. Girls are taller and stronger than ever. And among 100 candidates reporting for freshman crew practice at Cornell yesterday, 48 were 6 feet tall; a good sign. A well-balanced body, of good size, about 6 feet, is the right sort. In old days, a Napoleon had to be short. If he had been a little taller he would have been killed by the first of the bullets that went an inch above his head. AUTOCASTER Little Boy. Big Football!

THE RICHMO 4R77 winning pieces of the past two years have-been of the stone taken from the Hoosier hills. Right now attention is centered upon the recently unveiled sculpture groups on the pylons of Michigan boulevard's giant jack-knife bridge in Chicago. The four great pieces, standing out in bold relief, depict the march of progress in Chicago as visualized by the sculptors J. Exil Praser and Henry Hering. President A. E. Dickinson of the Indiana Limestone company commended the work, saying the very finest work thus far executed in that material. Critics are divided as to relative power of the four groups, some preferring "The Discoverers," some "The Pioneers," while others prefer "The Defense of Port Bearland."

Respect each other and make friends with your white neighbors. The future will take care of itselt. Colored folks who need advice a3 to how ang for whom to voe will always be able to find some «ccom- modating white aeighdor, in whom they have confidence te give them information along these ‘Mines. ‘This 's the best country for some people and tho worst for some others, ‘The trouble abot colored folks is that they g2°n ground and then they Jose much of the ground that they have gained. As a matter of fact, this loss is usually due to their own foolishness. Some of the policeofficers, who formerly furnished patients for the Lospitals are now providing bodies for the cemeteries. They have changed from blackijacks to revol- yers and the latter do deadly work. Col. Jennings C. Wise seems to be under the impression that the average Negro votes upon the prom ise of some office over white folks. Practices in New York are not in vogue in Virginia. Our experience has been that white men as a rule are the greatest grafters, whether they work over or under colored folks and many of their bad habits have beon practiced by some of our folks, Who have no selfrespect and less character. Col. Jennings C, Wise has assumed to speak for Col. Henry W. Ander- son and for Hon. Herbert Hoover. Is not tt about time that these dis tinguished Americans should speak for themselves? Before, Southerners did not care what the Yankees did tor or with the Negroes north of the Mason and Dixon Line, so long as they did not iaterfere with what the ‘Southerners did with them“south of that particular part of th’s country. Now they assume to dictate as to the tmatmen’ of the Negro in both places.

DrFrank Crane Says a Seer If you were limited to one book you might want the dictionary. Some people would want the Bible. If you were limited to one piece of furniture im the house your choice should be the piano. ‘The piano is easily the most important instrament in the world. Bt is the greatest common denominator of all musical instrament ‘Most music that is written for an orchestra or a banjo, a saxophoue or ‘the human voice is reducible to a piano score, and usually is first composed ‘on the piano. There is no doubt about music being the most cultural of studies. It connotes rhythm and Harmony, two things that are essential in all depart- ments of human acttvity. Rhythm is necessary even in the motion pictures, and you must have a sense of karmony if you are going to be an orator, a painter or a sculptor. The piano is the best door to the knowledge of music. Almost every- body enters into the field of music by that door. ‘The piano is the heart of the home. About it naturally groups all the family. A silent house is essentially a desolute one. The piano is the life of every social gathering. Té anyone can play the pia~>, even manage so-so with accompaniments, ‘a group gathers around him aid the house is enlivened by the voices of the Young, or partners are chosen for dancing. Almost every child can learn music if he is taught young enough. Modern methods of instruction are so simple that even the dullest can understand. Tt is a deprivation for any child not to know the piano. ___It is the best form of self-expression. As Thomas Moore's Anacreon- tie runs: “Music!

RICA MOUND, VIRGLNIA International Sunday School Lesson for November 4 WORLD'S TEMPERANCE SUNDAY Romans 13:1-10, 13, 14 Rev. Somuel D. Price, D.D. ‘This quarterly Temperance Lesson comes on World’s Temperance Sunday, just before the national election. Scientific temperance teach- ing is a part of the curriculum in the public schools in every state in the Union. By all these means the growing youth of every generation are taught that alcohol is a poison and should not be used for bever- age purposes. Such education is a world matter, for right is absolute and not relative. The nations of the earth are looking to the U. S. A. to note the outcome of the greatest experiment in opposing the organe ized liquor traffiic that has ever been tried in the World. 1A quarter of a century ago temperance was @ decidedly unpopular subject. Today it is about the biggest item of interest in the country. ‘This letter to the Romans was written from Corinth, a most licen- tious city, where liquor was used most freely to help the absndon ia immoralities. Corinth was the play ground for the Romans and there they sought to outdo the worst in the Imperial city. With all that in ‘mind Paul calls attention to the high place that rulers should aye ia the estimation of the people. Their office was always to be respscted for all power, in the last analysis, was derived from God. Taxes, though excessive, were not. to be’ thought of as.extortions but r8 their just obligation in helping to provide for their own bencis as well as for the common goud:, If only they would purpose to beep the law they would have no ili will toward either the law or those who were enforcing it. They could think back to what Jecus he said: “Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's.” The law of God was held very definitely before them. Anyiiing that tended to hurt their neighbor must be avoided. This is tinciy stated for every age, in the injunction: “Owe no man anything, so7 to love one another.” The very opposite of this is the result who any one makes use of alcohol as @ beverage. Alcohol is ivherentiy a poison and its reaction is uniform. Personal liberty ceases as un aryn- ment when our neighbor is hurt by what we give or sell him. Society is injured when one, claiming independence of action, causes damage ‘or even danger to those who have a right to live in safety. ‘That part of the Ten Commandments which deals with neighbosly relationships is brought in review. Then all is summarized in “Thon shalt love thy neighbor 2s thyself.” Having lived at least two years in Corinth on his previous missionary journey and sew again for three months, Paul is necessarily familiar with causes of evil. From his sad experiences he tells them about conduct that is so hurtful as he says “Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; notin chambering and wan- tonnes, not in strife and jealousy.” The Corinthians had been makin; provisign for the leah not only to its destruction but also the loss of spiritual life itself. Morals are improved, business advances, snoney saved, life protected just in proportion as alcoholic beversz+< ars given'up. The statistician continuously proves this. The development Gf the automobile industry isa good field of research for anyone who doubts these facts, the way.

I mean the other tongs—those pests, often agonizing— to find lodgment on the tops of, and between the toes. In these highly-specialized days, rather everybody has a chiropodist. The few who don't know just what a chiropodist is—and hasn't one—he's the one I'm talking to; the one who is willing to do most anything for a few relief. If course you know, those corns all your own fault; they couldn't appear; you invited them your- self. Corns never intrude themselves into polite society—they are always invited guests, that stay longer than they are wanted once their character becomes known. If your feet need soaking, soak them. But it doesn't help corns—much. As soon as you put that heathen shoe on again, the corns begin to speak up. Pull that shoe off again; if you throw it away, so much the better. Take a small "wisp" of long-fiber absorbent cotton and, wrap it snugly around the toe—as you'd spread it around a lead-pencil—snugly—so it will stay, when you draw on your stocking; then, saturate the cotton above the corn with any sort of good, refined, imbricating oil. Olive oil is excellent; Sperm oil, is very good; if you haven't either, since your wife's can of sewing-machine oil. I've used it myself—and cured my corns too. Dress the toe in this manner, morning, night, and wear low heels.

Graf Zeppelin N Hints for the Home The decorators tell us that every living room should have its screen. If it is not needed to match the entrance to the dining room or bed room, then it is invaluable as a "high piece" to balance the tall secretary, bookcase or upright piano on an opposite wall. Most attractive screens can be made at home at very little cost by covering the bare frame with antique wall paper or a delightful modern paper may be used if the modernistic touch is wanted in the room. Another effective screen that can be made at home is the screen of prints. Wall paper in a tiny gold star, diamond or cross stitch pattern makes a good foundation; then mount old-fashioned flower prints, Gody or quaint French prints in panels at the top. A Good Menu Without Meat Cream of turnip soup Eggs baked in tomato sauce Stuffed potatoes Cabbage slaw Butterscotch layer cake Non-stimulating drink A Dessert the Children Like A substantial dessert for little folks is cold fruit pudding made by dissolving 1 package fruit-flavored gelatine in 1 pint boiling water. When beginning to thicken, stir in a handful seedless raisins, a few nuts, chopped dates and figs and a sliced banana. Mold and serve with or without cream. For Flaker Pie Crust Your pastry will be much finer and more tender if prepared cake flour is used instead of bread flour. Reef Stew en Casserole Use 1 pound lean raw beef cut in inch cubes, 3 cups tomato pulp, 3 sliced cabions, 2 tablespoons melted butter, 3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapa, 1/4 teaspoon salt; paprika and paprika to taste.

"Very Latexs" "Very Latexs" By Cecile LORRAINE WEIMER—one of the Schubert stars in "Gay Patric," enjoys the soft, careless draping of her new scarf neck-line so much that she recommends it to all who appreciate the chic that only a flying scarf or a smart criss-crossed cravat can give. According to the type of the scarf is the design of the scarf, of course. For one new tailored costume the long winding tie is one-third plain fabric like the bodice top and two-thirds shaded colors applied at modernistic angles as a deep border. One end fills towels the back in this case—the chance of decoration being too splendid to read. Bow-tie your scarf, loop it, wind it, or allow it to fall softly down the front or back—whichever occurs to your versatile mind—but do have at least one scarfed trock or blouse in your wardrobe. Modernistic Modes for Sports However wild one's fancy for the modernistic touch, it may be indulged in sports wear. Diagonal splashes of color extending from right to left across the blouse; triangles of striped material set at opposing angles; zigzag weaves and half-and-half effects—all these oddities are among the new- Off-theFace Hats are New Late arrivals in French felts show a charming absence of brim across the front, achieved by folding the brim back against the crown and allowing it to form its own broad, drooping line at the sides. Often the crown is split and lapped over the turned back brim as a tailored fastening which takes the place of a buckle or pin. Lower Heels for Chess Come down from the high peaked heels to those of comfortable walking height if you would have modish footwear for the present season. For dressy occasions tall French and Spanish heels are still acceptable, but newest models show a noticeable lowering of heels for afternoon and street wear.

THE HUMAN SPHINX by Ellis Parker Buller ILLUSTRATIONS BY R.E.WATSON TWELFTH INSTALLMENT TWELFTH INSTALLMENT "Yes, the first," Abner Drane said so weakly that they could hardly hear him. "The first was a housekeeper she had, named Caroline Barstell. She was a sickly old thing and believed in ghosts—she thought she was a medium and had second sight but she was keen. She was keen the way fortune tellers are when they study a person and then tell them what their past has been and what their characters are. She told Ella right out to her face she was a woman. That night Miss Barstell had a fit and died." "Ella had poisoned her?" "Yes, and that was the first. That was what started Ella getting the sick ones from the hospital—Dr. Blessington made no trouble over the Barstell woman's death; he said he had been in danger of death at all times." Alner Dart was silent a moment. "There were nine others" he said himself. "Nine others. When Ella suspected that one of them believed she was a woman that one Amy had turned as white as the surface of the house behind her. Nine she all forward, fainting, and Bob Carter caught her just in time to prevent her from falling to the floor. Brennan ran into the house and returned with water and Bob Carter wet her face and presently she returned to consciousness. When she was seated in her chair again and apparently none the worse for her fainting spell, Simon Judd asked Abner Dart a question. "And who is Amy, Abner?" Before Abner Dart could answer Simon Judd's question the silence was broken by cries and loud noises within the house and Brennan leaped for the door and ran inside. For a brief period the noise continued, then it was silenced and Brennan came out "That Maggie cook was cutting loose," he said. "She has been drinking more but I took the stuff from her and she promised to be a good girl. Did you say who Amy was, Dart?" "She's a Drane," Abner Dart re- plied. "Along during these last years Ella complained a good deal because she had never had a child. It bothered her mind. She talked to me about it. She worried because we were old and there would be no one to leave the money to, and I told her to adopt a child. She used to go away when she was sick; she went to Hot Springs when she had appendicitis; she couldn't let the doctors here handle her illness, of course, so she went away. She went to California on one of the trips when she thought she was going to be sick, and she heard of a Drane there and tried to find him—his name was Silas, but he had died and his wife had died and they had left this baby. Soella adopted it. That is Amy. That is all we ever knew about Amy. She was a great comfort to Thinking Out Loud!

Simon Judd exclaimed. "Did she make that will she was talking about, leaving the money to Amy?" "Yes, and she was going to give Amy a fine sum when she married. We liked Bob Carter. It was like ending with something clean after a lot of vileness to know we would leave these two when we went," Ahner Dart said. "It did not pay, Sime. She made a mistake, Ella did. She wasn't happy and I wasn't happy. John Drane's money did her no good and it did me no good. I'd have enjoyed life more just being a second-rate undertaker out there in Riverbank, burying some old friend now and then, and going along nice, and easy." Amy was weeping now, crying gently, and Bob Carter, sitting on the arm of her chair was trying to comfort her. Norbert, coughing, came to the door. He seemed to think Brennan was in charge of the house, for he spoke to him. "If you please, Mist. Brennan," he said, "George Firmandick has jus' gone an' died all of a sudden an' Maggie is startin' to carry on mighty bad." "Where is she?" Brennan said. "She's up in his room ovah the garage," Norbert said, "an' she won't let nobody come up. She's got hold of a knife and I reckon she's gone plum crazy." "I'll be out there in a minute," Brennan said. "Have the two officers go out with you, will you? Hurry now! I just want to ask Mr. Dart a couple of questions." Norbert hurried away, coughing as he went, and Abner Dart made a gesture of despair with his hand and his face became sadder than ever. "Last night," Brennan said, "when Carter here went through the library, Dart, you said to Ella—to John Drane, if you please—something like 'Don't do it!' I warn you not to 'or' or 'I'm against it; remember what I say!' Something of that sort. What did you mean by that? Were you warning your wife not to let Amy marry Carter?" "No," Abner Dart said hollowly. "Oh, not that; never that! We both wanted that." "Then it wasn't over that you and Ella Drane quarreled last night after Simno Judd went to bed." "You know we quarreled, then?" Abner, Dart, asked, dully. "We know it," Brennan said, "Why did you not stay the night as had been arranged?" For a full minute Abner Dart did not answer and when he did it was in the voice of one talking in his sleep. "I'm old! I'm old! And I'm tired! A man can stand so much and then he can stand no more.

I told her I went through with her—through for ever." They were all silent now, starring at the broken little man, Simon Judd pursing his fat lips, Amy as white as a white rose, Bob Carter glaring angrily and Brennan watching the little man's face questioningly. Brennan broke the silence. "Dart," he demanded sharply, "do you know who killed Ella Dart last night?" "No! I do not know!" the little man said, shaking his head. "I knew I would tell you. 1—" One of the police officers interrupted this time, coming around the veranda, walking firmly on his broad soles. "Brennan!" he said, motioning to the detective with a finger. "What is it, Joe?" Brennan asked. "The cook lady, Maggie Mancy her name is, had a spell and passed out up yonder in the chaufeur's room just now." the officer said. "I don't know was she right in her mind or not but she was shoutin' that the dead woman had killed the chaufeur. She was shoutin' that the dead woman was murderin' all that guessed she was a female, sir, and that last night she saw the dead woman—who was not yet dead, you understand, Brennan — giving George some drops, at which time the cook was in the chaufeur's closet, I'm sorry to say, sir. "And—" said Brennan questioningly as he closed his note book and dropped it in his pocket. "And the last words the cook shouted before she passed out," the officer said "to the effect that she had murdered this late John Drane, now known to be a female, usin' a knife as the implement, the object of the said crime being' revenge, and the crime bein' actuated by love and affection for the said George Firmandick, now deceased." Write all that down before you forge an arm of it Joe" Brennan said. "We'll have to give that to the Grand Jury, possibly." He turned to Simon Judd. "I think that's our case," he said, "It's not much for us but it will be a big story for the newspapers. By the time it reaches Riverbank you ought to be quite a hero detective, Judd." "If I isn't," Simon Judd said placidly, "it won't be my faust." THE END Ol thought it was. It's broken on both sides." "I saw the cutest thing to-day," began Miss Passa coyly. "It was a painting of the er-what is the name of the little god that represents matrimony?" "Well, now," said Mr. Timmid, "You've got me." "Oh, Mr. Timmid, this is so sudden." "Well. I'll be switched," said the engine, as it saw that, for once in his life, the flagman was awake. "Do you thing the Glee Club ought to get an hour?" "An hour? Hell! They ought to get a year." "They say that convicted burglar is a Yale grad." "Yes, he was on the rifle team." "What's an affinity dad?" "Usually a person with money, my son." Socrates lifted the cup and took a sip. "What is this stuff" he asked, petulantly. "It's bentlock" they explained. "Oh, that's all right then," he remarked. "I thought Xantippe was sending me another of those hectiful substitutes for coffee." "I don't get what I deserve for my jokes," sighed the Alleged Humourt. "You're lucky," comforted the Confirmed Pessimist. James got into a shower. No! Were and the boy in the mirror. Father said, "I'm not sure, Really, I am somehow."

Columbia "Magic Notes" URANT PORK AND BEANS Ask Your Dealer for Latest Race Record Catalog Columbia Phonograph Company, 1819 Broadway, New York City Made the New Way - Electrically Vib-tenal Recording - The Records without Scratch Oil Heat in Homes Does Much ASDESTO RESCUER mer president of the National State Fire Marshals' Association, says adoption of the oil burner for home heating is one of the most decided steps that can be taken to guard life and property." Study of the national situation by President Williams reveals that fireweights of the fires from all sources occur in the months from October to March, and that coal-bested homes continue to be a menace to their occupants as well as to nearby houses. The most frequent causes of fire losses, he found, are exposure of buildings to adjacent burning structures. "Approval of the oil burner by the Department of Agriculture has National Board of Fire Commission said the maker of the Oil-Maker is going far toward showing greater safety and economic safety and protection." RIGHT Adopting oil for residence heating use has brought a big reduction of fire loss in home sections, according to C. U. Williams, president of the Williams Oil-O-Matic Heating Corporation, Bloomington, Ill. By eliminating soot and sparks in this manner, roof and chimney fires and burning out of flues were prevented, and these cause three-fourths of the dwellings fires reported in the United States. Fire Prevention Week, October 7 to 13, serves to attract renewed attention to the great improvement that has taken place in home safety conditions within the past few years. President Williams points out. "The estimated fire loss in 1927 in the United States was $472,245,620, or 18 per cent below 1926," said the head of the largest oil-burner business in the world.

First there was "Maytime" strata from which still ring in the hearts of those who have seen and heard it. The success of "Maytime" with a Sigmund Römberg score, was sweeping. Following "Maytime" was "Blossom Time" "The Student Prince" and "Countess Martiza." J. J. Subbert, master the theoretical producer and chief executive of the largest and most powerful firm in the world of amusements, presents this simple and apparently obvious formula of success in the world of make-believe. Mr. Subbert has risen to the heights because he has kept his finger constantly on the public pulse. He has found out what the theater-going public wants, and his long experience more than a quarter of a century, has fitted him to make the most of opportunities to give the people an overflowing measure of the good things they want in the way of entertainment. This season Mr. Shubert is secreting his greatest artistic triumphs in "Mr. Maryland." "The Red Roose," with Walter Wooler in the leading role and "White Lilacs." "My Maryland" is seaped upon the dramatic story of Barbara Frietche during the Civil War and the story of Richardaleu time. "White Lilacs" is now playing in New York is the story of Chopin, with his gorgeous music weaving together the drama of a beautiful romance. An innate love of music and beauty is as much a part of Mr. Shubert as his physical makeup itself. He is convinced that what the public wants is now playing in New York is the story of Chopin, with his glorious music weaving together the drama of a beautiful romance. for you the man- Our Policy Pays You 5 Ways and 4 SICKNESS ACCIDENT DISABILITY Weekly Sick Benefit ly day due.
