Well, the next time you see
Willie Kemp you will notice that
he has a broad smile, caused from
the fact that Thursday was BAN
ner day for Willie and the water
hole on number two. For the past
few weeks Willie has been unable
to get across in one shot sort of
a jinx which has affected every
golfer in town at one time or an
other. Anyway, Willie was able
to get across both times and so is
very happy-also he managed to
get back some of his losses that
Eddie Strunk and Charlie Salas
have been taking regularly. 1t
seems that Willie and the Texas

Is it the fellow who, having heard
every blamed word you said, waits
until you're all through and then
says, WHAT"

Or the clerk who. when you go

you everything in the store, includ-

Synthetic Napoleon Brandy

I WILL now tell about Napoleon
brand..'. Napoleon brandy is any
brandy more than four years old,
if poured from a dark bottle with
an M on it and decorated with
cobWebs applied by an expert cob
web tWiner before being served;
price $3.50 to So per slug at your
favorite robbers cave.
More genuine guaranteed Napo-
leon brandy is sold every month in
New York night clubs alone than
all of the regular Napoleons, num-
bered, respectively, 1, II and III
ever saw.
What brought these interesting
statistics to mind was running into
a collector of Napoleon brandies.
Why, some of his specimens must
date back as far as 1914.
But my aim is to collect the pis-
tolls carried by Jesse James and
the handouts worn by Billy the
Kid. It's a great ambition, but may
run into money because it will take
a large hall to contain all the Jesse
James siX-shooters and all the Bill
the Kid handouts I've seen.

HeligOIand, Germany

Heligoland, Germany, takes it's
name, Holyland, from having been
a center of Christian activity in the
Seventh century, but it later fell in
to evil ways as a haven for pirate
bands that ravaged the Hanseatic
merchant traffic of the North Sea.
To this Hamburg put a stop, join
ing the island to the neighboring
Schleswig, whence it passed to Den
mark and finally to England about
the beginning of the last century.
The trading of Heligoland to Ger
many for the island of Zanzibar of
the African coast brought Oh a
storm of popular protest in both
countries. In England, the trans
action was explained as the wish
of Queen Victoria to grant a favor
to her nephew, the young Emperor
William.

SYNOPSIS

Mary Avery, a widow who lives in the
harbor town of Satuit, Mass, with two
negro maids, Sarah Darbe and Bessie VIII
'iams, writes a manuscript describing the
famous Second Head murder, which oc-
Cured on her estate. Next to Mary live
Mr. and Mrs Peter Stow who every year
give a summer masquerade party. One OF
the guests of this function is murdered
Nearby live Dr. and Mrs. Geary and their
married daughter Edith and her husband
Alfred Bray; Doctor Myron Nlarden and
his step granddaughter, Caro- Prentiss,
beautiful young girl who was born in
France. Next live Paul and Lora Eames
and their daughter Molly. Molly was en-
gagged to the murdered man, Ace Baikie.
She had previously been engaged to Walter
Treadwell who had been Baikie's secre-
fary. but the engagement was suddenly
broken and he had left town. Other neigh
bors are the Fairweather sisters, Flora, a
hopeless invalid, and Margaret. All but the
latter two attend the masquerade. Mary's
eight year old niece, Sylvia Sard, is visiting
her for the summer The wooded part of
Mary's estate is called the Spinney. In it
is tiny log cabin, called the Little House,
On the day of the masquerade excitement
is high. Mary decided to take Sylvia, who
IS an unusually observant child. Caro- Prem
tIss and Molly Eames drop in during the
afternoon. Molly seems pre-occupied. Soon
a car arrives and Blaikie, Doctor Marden
and Bruce Hexson, friend of Aces, alight.
Molly is impatient to leave and they all ex-
cuse themselves. AT the party Sylvia iden-
titles each of the masked guests as they
arrive. Ace comes garbed as Julius Caesar.
Molly Eames appears as Snow Queen, ac-
companed by a man in armor whom Sylvia
identifies as Walter Treadway. They dance
together continuously. Caro- Prentiss and
Marden arrive dressed in Revolutionary
costumes, the doctor wearing jeweled shoe
buckles. When the guests unmask, Ace,
Walter and Molly have disappeared.

ITS curious that two of the most
L fascinating and envied professions
-fnanciering and acting-do not
necessarily call for intelligence.
Not that there aren't brilliant per-
sons a-plenty engaged in both lines.
But the mimetic quality, the
knack of rendering other peoples
lines, perhaps without ever under
standing them, may be but a sub
limated emotional instinct, just as
sometimes the ability to make great
gobs of money has nothing to do
with brains, or rather brains have
nothing to do with it. A certain
man can smell out a hidden dollar
exactly as a rat terrier shifts be-
hind the wainscoting the rat which

Sam. THE punch was very de-

Mrs. Lane said she'n Mr.. Lane

Sarah," I said. Il think she's be-

thanked all my gods that did not
let Sylvia go with Sarah. The ten
minutes or more which it took
Sarah to go to the Little House and
return-it happened that she came
back by the path which led up to
the side entrance at the left of the
house-were the last happy mo-

1t was one Of the contradictions
in Ace Blaikie's contradictory char
,acter that he preferred little girls
to little boys. He had an enchant-
ing way" with little girls and
this enchanting way" had no re-
lation whatever to the fascinating
way" he had with older women.
For Ace Blaikie had always been
attractive to women-always
I'm sorry Doctor Ace didn't
come back and take his mask off"
Sylvia repeated. Afterwards, was
to recall that Sylvia had said twice
that Ace Blaikie had gone away,
twice that she was sorry he had
not come back. At that moment
of course it made no impression.
