Complete List of Members in

A handbook and directory of the
Stevens Memorial Methodist Church,
of which the Rev. Dr. Clayton Albert
Smucker is the pastor, has just been
issued, containing complete infor
mation of the history of the church,
members and parish districts. It is
called the "Blue Book."
In the history of the church its
growth is traced from the organization
in May, 1871. Since that time there
have been nineteen pastors, and of
that number all but four are still liv
ing. A schedule of church and week
day services is also given, with the
roster of officials, Including trustees,
stewards, leaders, cx-officio members
and standing committee members.
Twenty-four pages of the directory
are devoted to an alphabetical list of
all members of the church, with their
street addresses and parish districts.
One of the features is the Grand Army
of the Stevens Memorial, to which only
members who are over 70 years of aga
are eligible. At' present there are

Protestant Episcopal Church will have
before it a proposal ematlating from
a Commission of Bishops, clergy and
laymen to alter the form of the Ten

ports in favor of shortening the Com

I—Thou shalt have none other Gods
but me.

any graven image, nor the likeness of
any thing that is in Heaven above, or
in the earth beneath, or in the water
under the earth; thou shalt not bow
down to them, nor worship them.

4—Remember that thou keep holy

The commission has recommended
these changes for the reason that the
(arguments for the observance of these
divine laws are not parts of the Com
mandments themselves; they were
peculiar to the national life of the
i Israelites, and changed conditions
j have robbed the arguments of much
J of their weight.
The proposal is not so radical as It
appears on the surface. The Ten

ed in 1549, and also in the Prayer
Book used in the Episcopal Church

especial appeal to women dealing as it

Cabin term. Its motive is a strug

the right and wrong ot" men. The play
of ' uncle Tom's Cabin" is a powerful
sermon, written in dramatic form and so
constructed as to place before the pun
lie in the brief space of two hours, one
of the strongest and most eloquent
pleas ever made from behind the foot
lights.

Silver
Sandals
A Detective Story of Mys
tery, Love and Adventure.
By Clinton H. Stagg
Copyright. W. J. Watt & Co..
International News Service.
"Merely Silver Sandals spelled
backward," Colton pointed out.
"D'ye mean to fay this is the death
notice of the man that was murder
ed?" the captain asked sarcastically.
"Yes."
"Bosh!" The expletive was fairly
sneezed. "It's a fake? Who ever
heard of publishing a death notice?"
A new thought changed the trend of
the sentence. "To get In this morn
ing's papers, the copy for the ad would
have to be sent before the man was
murdered!"
"Before his death was discovered,
you mean," corrected the blind man
mildly.
"Who'd do it? Who'd do it?"
"The same person who wrote the
three papyrus notes."
"Maybe you know who that was?"
The captain put the question bellig
erently.
"I do." Colton was serious. "It
was the man you found dead at the
table; the man who was murdered!"
"What V All the other verbal ex
plosions had been mild beside this one.
"That is true." Colton's tone car
ried conviction. "Those notes and that
notice were written by the man we
found dead. Here's a picture of him
writing them!"
From his outside pocket the blind
man took a photograph. In the light
from the big window, the police cap
tain saw the picture of the bearded
man. The captain had had twenty
years' experience comparing photo
graphs. and he could not be deceived.
It was the same man. He was dress
ed In a long robe, with huge Egyptian
scarabs showing on the front and
sleeves. He was writing at a small
table on which a black crow perched
with outstretched wings on a grinning
skull! Another, and smaller photo
graph pasted on the back showed the
man's hand with a curiously shaped
pen resting over the unfinished note
that had been sent to the captain.
"Writing with a stylus," explained
the blind man. "It makes a deeper
line on the papyrus man would an or
dinary pen. My fingers had no diffi
culty in reading the one at Carl's
office."
"Where did you Ket this?" The
captain's voice was growing humble.
"On the table you see in the pic
ture. together with the clippings.
They had been left to find. The rest
of the house had been cleaned out
before Silver Sandals left it. They
were very careful; there wasn't much
left for eyes to see."
"Can I have this for a while?"
Colton resisted the temptation to
smile. He understood, now, the hu
mility of the previous question. "Cer
tainly," he agreed. "A photograph
isn't of much use to me," he added
dryly.
"Thanks. I'll do something for you
some time." The captain actually
sighed in relief as he shoved the pic
ture into his pocket.
"You might allow me to interview
your prisoner." was all the problemist
asked.
"Sure! Sure! Any time!" The
police officer gave the permission hur
riedly. He backed away a step.
"Good-bye!" He was on his way even
before he finished.
Colton heard him go, and a half
smile surved his lips as he took out
his cigarette case. He put his slim
stick under his arm as he lighted
the paper roll. For several minutes
he smoked In silence; then his cars
toldl him that the last of the hangers
on had left the coroner's suite. The
cane clattered to the floor as it fell
from under his arm.
Down the corridor came the pat-pat
of light-running feet. A red-haired
boy leaned over to pick up the stick.
"Did you get the district attorney.
Shrimp?" queried the blind man.
"Yes. sir." The boy handed the
cane to the problemist. "The cops
didn't get the same one. The D. A.
says his men ain't located the waiter
that guided us to Silver Sandals'
house. An' say!" The boy assured
himself that there was no one within
hearing distance. "When I got that
cane signal inside an' called up what
yuh whispered when I put it in yer
hands, the D. A. was just gonna call
up."
"Any news of Sydney?" The ques
tion came with a quick eagerness that
seldom marked the blind man's tone.
"Nope, not yet," the boy answered
solemnly. They're lookln' fer him. But
the D. A. says the two women left
the house about three o'clock. A Hun
s'loonkeeper that was just closin' up
saw "em. They went down toward the
river."
"Three o'clock!" mused the blind
man; and he went on, apparently to
himself: "That waiter was the one
who waited or the morning papeprs so
that he could put the clippings where
we could find them. I wonder "
"They on'y had a Futchel," put in
the boy. "The A. remembered that
yuh wanted to know what they
carried."
"Sure ?"
"Certain. The D. A. said he didn't

know what you was so anxious about
that fer, but ho made certain. He
says the police have Just finished
searching the house, and they didn't
get a thing."
Colton nodded. "All right!" We'll ;
have to see for ourseives. Come on!" [
He started briskly toward the eleva- ;
tor. On the main floor of the building
he turned toward the telephone '■
booths. "What was the number of j
that little grocery store on the corner
below the house that I asked you to
get?" he asked of tha boy, as they !
stopped before the desk of the oper
ator.
The boy repeated it, and the blind '
man stepped into a booth and care- [
fully closed the door behind him. In j
less than a minute he was out again. '
"The car. Shrimp!" His voice was
sharp, imperative. His nostrils quiv
ered with nervous eagerness, a hectic I
flush was on the pale cheeks.
The boy caught the contagion. He ;
knew that the blind man had picked j
up a thread in the tangle. His elbow ]
touched the sleeve of Thornley Colton, l
guiding, by the touch of cloth against
cloth, the sightless one through the
throng of hurrying, jostling men in the
main corridor and across the sidewalk
to where the black car waited.
"Silver Sandals' house!" Colton or- j
dered, and the car started the in
stant the boy's foot left the curb. I
Michael, too, knew that tone.
"Yuh ain't found Sydney?" The boy j
had kept that qut-stion bottled for !
blocks, but it had to come.
"I've located the thing T've been *
looking for. T thing it will tell me j
where he is. If lam right " The
words stopped with the grim com- !
