 This was the question which representatives of several civic organizations set out today to answer following publication of advices from Topeka that testi- mony before the Kansas Indus trial court had fixed the amount at $S7 per annum.
 The answer as determined for Chicago was s117.7o, with reser- vations.
 T do think she can dress well. perhaps even smartly, on $117 a year" said the head of the woman's apparel division of department store. But she must have good taste. practice self denial and steer away from the impractical garments"
 The accepted budget of the years outlay for the wardrobe contained, among other things, one suit at s20; two pairs of shoes. SIP; five pairs of hose s6.s0; and two hats s1o.

Correct "S-Word" List Con- tains 321 Words-Pratt City Man Gets $1,000-Second Winner Failed to Qualify for High Prize

Clifton Matson of Pratt City, Ala, is s1,o00 richer today as the winner of The Age-Herald Sword Pic ture Puzzle Game. The judges awarded Mir. Matson's "S- Word" list first bonors, and as his list was fully qualified by 8 full one years sub soription, he wins the maximum re- ward of s1,0o0.
 Mrs. c. N. Winslett of Bon Air, Ala, the second prize winner, was not so fortunate, as she failed to qualify her excellent "S-Word" list for the larger bonus rewards, and as result wins but $30, whereas had she fully qualified her list she would have won $500.
 Several other winners failed to take advantage of this big opportunity and as result they were not entitled to tho maximum rewards-
 The Age Herald received thousands of lists from all over the country. Many lists contained hundreds of words, which had no bearing uron the ''S- Word" Picture and of course this eliminted such lists. Other lists were killed as the participants had allowed their imagination full sway common error was the naming of the pictured people as, Sarah, Sam. etc. This, of course, was highly imaginary and counted against the list.
 The task Of checking and reeheck- ing the numerous lists was of course beyond the board of three judges, 80 a force of registered Birminghs m school teachers were called in to as- sist in this work.
 Naturally, in competitive contest of this sort. 1t Is impossible for all to be winners. but The Age-Herald feels that all participants will join with them in wishing the winners the best of luck with their rewards

DR. SHELTON SLAIN BY ROBBERS, SAYS
 CABLE FROM CHINA
irst Christian Missionary AL lowed to Enter Thibet Is Dead at Hands of Chi
 nese Brigands
By Associated Press

tt Louis, March 1.-The Rev. pr. Albert Leroy Shelton, medical mis- gfe1ary of the Disciples of Christ (Cnristian church), who was the f-t Christian missionary to be all 1o ed to enter Thibet, and who was
 iaped and held by Chinese brig ards 50 days, two years ago, was ua dered by Chinese robbers Febru- frg IT. last it was announced here today.
 ne announcement was by the gn ed Christian Missionary society, whah received a cablegram from the Her Dr. William Hardy. also a medi sa 1issionary in China, which read:
 = ,bbers killed Shelton near Ba- tang. February IT. Notify girls"
 The girls referred to are pr. Shei- tons daughters, Dorothy, IT, and Doris, l5, who are attending school in Pomona, Cal.
 pr. Shelton's headquarters were at Batang, near Thibet and Dr.. Hardy's cablegram was from Lii Klang, the nearest telegraph station, a 15,day journey. and this, it was explained, is responsible for the delay in news of the murder.
 Thibet has not been open to mis- Eonaries. Dr. Shelton departed from Vancouver last August to open a hos ipital at LHasa- He had received written invitation from the Dalai Lama. the supreme power of the Mo hammedan church in the province, to establish the hospital. in recognition of his work among Thiberan soldiers.
 Reached Bstnng, Belief
 The last word received from Dr. Shelton was when he was Is days Journey out of Batang, when he said he expected to reach Batang Decem- Der 23. The theory of the mission ary society here is that he reached Batang on scheduled time.
 L'Hasa is 35-day trip by cara van from Batang and 1t is not be- 1ieved the time between December B and February 17 was sufficient ito allow him to organize the cara van. Consequently it is believed he was killed while on side trip alone administering to the sick.
 The theory of his safe arrival in Batang. is the fact that no one else lis reported murdered. His wife did not accompany him to Batang, but went to Calcutta to obtain transla- tions of the scripture in the Thibetan tongue.
 In his party were Mir. and Mrs. J. N. Morse and their small child of Tulsa, Okla, and Mir. and Mrs. M Fl. Duncan of Buffalo, who were en- terfng the mission field.
 pr. Shelton was in St. Louis in Oc- tober of 1920, attending a convention of the church and related his expe- riences while a captive of the brig Ands.
 He stated he had been endeavoring for years to get the ruler of Thibet to lift the ban on foreigners so he could enter and pursue his work and finally the delai lama had expressed a willingness to grant the request. He prepared to make the journey to Thibet and he conducted his wife and daughters on a friday trip to a point near a railroad station, where they were to go to the coast. where liv- ing conditions were better, while he vas to return to Batang.

By Associated Press

Topeka. Kans., March 4.-"I would like to have marched with the girls who made tour of the shopping district in search of the renowned 25 cent hose" de- clared the Rev. A. L. Nystrom, pastor of the Bethel Methodist church, in an address last night.
 T venture the opinion that de- partment store heads would not employ girls dressed in clothes that $s7.5o would buy"
 The pastor referred to the marching of several score of of flee girls the past evenings in which they stormed dry goods stores, head saleswomen of which testified at the industrial court hearing on women's wages that a working girl should clothe herself on $s7.55 a year. The minister's sentiment vase in- dorsed by another speaker. Prof. William A. Irwin, of the Eco monies department of Washburn college.
 Thus far the marching club has maintained mystery as to it's organization As if by secret signal it has formed in line the last two evenings immediately after the five o'clock closing hour of several business instl- tutions which employ large number of girls and women.
