The authors let you know that
up to this time, regardless of her
affairs with young men of wealth,
the lady in question Still prided
herself on being respectable" and
that chastity was her idea of good
form"
This was the first time that the
lady had entered Mornington'S
house alone and she was gradually
losing some of her composure as
Mornington became rather insistent
with his attentions.
Just as Mornington became vio-
lent, the authors tell you-"The
air was rent by her piercing scream
and limp hand pointed before
her. Fascinated by her stare
Mornington turned to the direction
in which she pointed. The dividing
curtains of the room had been
drawn slightly apart and through
the gap cleaned a pair of flaming
eyes. Terro stricken, he drew hur-
riedly away from his companion
and sprang up. There was a flash
of light--a pistol Shot-and with
arms flung wildly above his head
Mornington reeled backwards, then
sank suddenly to the floor in an
untidy heap-at the feet of a
virtuous woman"
That is the basis of the murder.
The lady you do not know. You
thought that just the lady and
Mornington were alone. Who killed
him? Who also robbed Morning
tons desk of papers. Was there
another woman in the house at the
time of the murder? Did man
do the shooting?
That is the prologue of "The
Patriot" which starts you on an
exciting experience of reading
about $40 more pages.
1t is not my policy to give away
the plot of murder mystery,
whether it be in a book or on
the stage. And I will follow the
rule here.
This book is unusual in that
SCOClaIlQ ara QO6S nOG run 1QUO
any strange happenings while in
vestigating the murder. The yard
solves the mystery, but never gets
the guilty party, as far as this
story is concerned.
You get the impression that the
clever Walters are going to force
you to read at some other time
many other pages about the
strange murder policy of the
Wrath.
This book gives the murderer the
strangest murder policy ever given
to a chief character in fiction.
h Here is one mystery novel that
Aeill keep you worried and puzzled
up to the last minute and then the
authors leave you worried and con-
cerned.
You will get quite kick out of
this book and you will be ire
rlendously interested in the new
construction method used by the
authors.

 Hoover said in his reply that he did not favor repeal Of the 18th amendment: that he stood for eff cient, vigorous and sincere enforce ment: that the country undertook prohibition as a social and economic experiment with noble motives and thst the experiment must be worked out constructively.
 Borah would not comment upon the letter. but it is known he is no, strongly displeased with Hoover's stand.

Negro Ministers Branded
Lacking in Education.

arrangements followed the address
of F. e. De Frantz, secretary OF
the Negro Y. M. G. A. last night,
in welcoming delegates to the In
diana Conference of African Episco-
pal churches, which opened yester-
day at the Allen Chapel Church,
Broadway and Eleventh SITS.
De Frantz presented figures on the
intellectual training of Negro pastors
and cited statistics showing that less
than per cent have finished high
school.
A. j. Carey, presiding bishop of the
conference, defended the pastors,
calling on the Rev. c. F. Woodson,
dean of Payne Theological Seminary,
Wherefore University, to read list
of graduates present at the meeting.
II think the Y. NJ. G. AS fail to
get cooperation of the ministers
because the ministers refuse to bow
to their idols" declared the bishop.
LAS long as these organizations hold
the ministry up to ridicule, how can
it be appreciated" demanded the
bishop.
