when Billie came homo from school
he had to do the puzzle too. Then,
leaving the squirrel boys looking at
The puzzle picture he had drawn,
Uncle Wiggily hoppcd out of the
cute little house bcueath the tree
roots and started for mis- own hol-
low stump bungalow.
But the rabbit gentleman had
not hoped far before, all of a sud

ly in the year for many leaves to
be on the tree, il WASH I much of
shelter and did not keep off the
rain drops.
Hopping out, Uncle Wiggily went
along a path in the woods until.
all of a quickness, he saw a little
cave under the edge of rock which
stuck out like a porch.
"Ill stand under here until it
stoos raining, said the rabbit. But
no sooner had he started into the
little dry cave than, all at once,
out rushed the Fuzzy Fox, who
caught Uncle Wiggily by the ears
and pulled him into the den. For
it was at the Fox den that the bun
ny had stopped.
"Ah! Now I've caught YOU, =
snarled the Fox. But before he
could nibblc any ears Uncle Wiggily
dipped his paw in an ink bottle he
saw on shelf in the dan and the
rabbit quickly drew picture of 4
table. And on this pictured table
was teakcttlc and dish. On the
wall, in the picture, was clock.
Now look here, Mr.. Fox said
the rabbit. 81 We made two mis-,
takes in this picture made ther,
on purpose to fool YOU. If You can
tell ne what those two mistakes are
you can I nibblc my ears.
So here is the puzzle picture and
perhaps you can tell what is wrong

Dy nOANAAn VIA
DETROIT, Mich, May 3i.-Detroit
police are pondering over one Of the
queerest cases in their history-the
Loomis-Newel triangle.
DIR. Frank p. LOOMS, physician,
is dead-a suicide.
His wife was found murdered in
the sunroom Of the LOOMS home In
February. 1927.
Only Mrs. Gertrude Newell, pretty
diyorcee and sweetheart Of the doc
tor, survives.
The Tragedy Begins
II has been more than a year since
DR.. LOOMS ran TO a police station
near his home, stammering an almost
i%ncoherent story of finding his wife
horribly beaten and lifeless less than
an hour after he had left her to 90
for a walk.
While the two Loomis children
slept in q nearby room undisturbed,
their mother, a powerful woman,
was cruelty murdered. Apparently a
tins canary was the only witness 10
the crime, except its perpetrator.
A few days later DR.. Lomis was
taken into custody and accused OF
the crime. A jury acquitted the doc
tor, but public opinion refused 70
exonerate him. Until the day Of his
recent suicide he was a marked man.
In the theaser, on the street, in
restaurants, people pointed him ou'
10 their friends and whispered as he
passed.
Only a few remained loyal to him,
Among them were Victor kolar, as
sistant director of the Detroit SYM
phony orchestra; DR.. Edwin P.
Koneczny, and Mrs. Gertrude Newell,
At the time of the trial Mrs. Newell
was held for a period by police, who
said they believed her the motive
for the murder. They we're not able
to establish t%his-both the doctor
and Mrs. Newell insisting that THEN
relations had been only that OF
physician and patient.
