sists of eight wards and is the
only part of the hospital which
Is completely walled in and
locked up.
Mrs. Adams attended a series
Of lectures by doctors on the
needs of mental patients. She
quotes DR.. Jay Hoffman as
saying he could use 500 volun-
teers at st. Elizabeths which
has more than 1000 patients.
She says he is almost as much
concerned about the attitude
of the volunteers toward the
patients as he is about the
patients themselves. He be-
lieyes that 1t is very impor-
tant to keep a bridge open be-
tween patients and the COM
munity.
Another series of orientation
talks will be given soon at the
hospital. Those interested
should call Miss Evelyn Miller,
head of volunteer services
branch.
What the hospital needs"
says Mrs. Adams. ''is women

Two letters In the same mail
proved to Mrs. Earl Adams
that her work at st. Elizabeths
Hospital is appreciated. One
was from the superintendent.
DR.. Winfred Overholser. au-
thorizing her as volunteer
worker. The other from a
patient-friend in Howard Hall
thanking her and the other
United Church WON en- of
Washington for their interest
and help.
Mrs. Adams is an honorary
member Of the board Of the
United Church w o m n and
chairman Of their st. Eliza
beths projects.
1.-THE women who do volun-
teer work are helped as much
as those whom they are at
tempting to serve" declares
Mrs. Adams. THE thing to
do is to keep trying to find a
place where you can put your
heart and soul"
Mrs. Adams did volunteer
work in her former home in
Scarsdale, N. Y, and took
training courses here for diff
ferent volunteer positions be-
fore finding her own niche.
Her husband, a minister. is
Washington secretary of the
National Council Of Churches.

During the holidays Mrs.
Adams was busily happy with
her daugher Mary Louise, a

II abruptly. The tycoon was very angry.
His naturally pale skin was almost green,
the lashless eyes murderous.
Just another few minutes, MIR. Van
Olde," said Inspector Queen.
"A very few, please. Then either
walk out of here unmolested, or tele-
phone my attorneys and the Commits
Sioner."
''Yes, sir. Now, gentlemen, each of
you wanted to marry Miss Ryan - bad.
And each of you got phone call from
her tonight. One she told she'd finally
decided to marry. Two - the other two
- she brushed.
''One Of those two promptly came
here tonight and shot her.
You think you've got us sty-
mied," said the Inspector, showing his
dentures. Each man was found home
in bed. And while we have the bullet -
probably from a .38 - search of your
respective premises has failed to turn up
the gun. Or the trench coat or Stetson.
On top of that, each claims he was the
man Modesto told over the phone she
was accepting! Two of those claims are
lies, Of course, to take the heat off. But
we can't tell which two.
Gentlemen, have news for you"
SAID Inspector Queen softly. Thrown
away guns, coats and hats have way
of turning up. And you've got no alibis
for the time of the shooting. You were
home in bed, say all of you, but none of
you can prove it, not even you, Shan
vile, because you occupy separate bed
room and weren't even heard coming
home -"
Are you quite finished?' asked Rich
ard Van Olde.
Mot yet, sir!''
Dad"
The Inspector looked around sur
prised. Ellery was on his feet, the picture
of wy hopelessness.
Il don't see any point to going any
further with this now, do you? Let's call
it night. These gentlemen won't run
away. and we can all use some sleep"
The old man blinked.
''All right" he said.
But when the three had gone, he
growled to his son, And what's the big
plot, Master Mind?"
Its simple enough" Ellery said as
they crouched near the glass outer doors
Of the lobby. 1t was after three, the rain
had stopped, and the chrome on the dark
cars outside winked damply in the street
lights. We're waiting for our friend to
come back"

had found Modesto Ryan's maid asleep
in her Harlem fiat, he reported; the
maid knew nothing except that on Miss
Ryan's arrival home she had made three
phone calls, one to Kid Gait, one to MIR.
Shanville, and the last to Mr.. Van Olde.
But the maid hadn't listened to the con-
versations, says she couldn't say which
ones Miss Ryan had given the heave
and which one she'd made the happy
man.

muttered the Inspector.
She's this way-that way said Ser
geant Velie.
But did she talk!''

Coming, Ellery?'
His son sighed IF could have found

Hollow laughter followed him to the
stairway door.
At twenty minutes after two the
Inspector finished with the last of the
three interrogations. He found Ellery in
Modesto Ryan's living room staring
reproachfully at her phone.
ANY luck?'
I've called every columnist in town,
all her close friends. She just didn't tell
anybody"
The old man grunted. He stuck
his head into the hall. Get those cuties

Shanville made his entrance with a
rather set smile. The disheveled blond
hair was all dagger points, and with the
slight upcurve of his lips he looked
Satanic.
