I ; , JIADI0 ADVERTISING ! " Announcement is made by the Canadian Associatipp. . of 'B)terq'.'..t)iaj; ,le,iafj;er there shall be, no, advertising included; in .radio . broadcasts on Sunday, witli the exception that the name and. business of the sponsor of the. program may be,given. Their conclusion, is that this, should be done "in the proper, obseryance of Sunday." ! Undoubtedly this will' meet. with the hearty approval of-! the radio h'steners, and it is a, move that should be adopted J by; th United,; States Radio Broadcasters. It(is not -in ac1? co'i'dance with the fitness of things to have.aprogi'am .of inspiring music immediately followed by a dissertation oril the merits of a certain food or toilet preparation. ' Another rule adopted by. our Canadian friends, which w'flfii piease the listening .public, is that after 7:00 p. m. on week days no advertising announcement .shall exceed 5 per cent of the time allotted tp any one program. Recent surveys conducted in various American cities hftye', repealed, the. fact, .that the people are interested in a; radio program only so long as it is confined to entertainment nr education, but.as.s90n as a purely.advei-tising message is started, the listeners switch, to. another, station. This fact,1 no doubt, has. been a.strong,point.in decidingthe tudebaker Corporation to discontinue their. radio advertising programs and use the newspapers as their mainstay for advertising.

"Can't we talk of something more .cheerful?" -she asked. "It It , must be crime, perhaps Mr. Haswell.wlll itell us about some of his cases." Jlmmle,. not .given, to . discussing his exploits, related an Instance -where Scotland Yard's Ingenuity had beaten him to a sol'Ulon of a ,aiy8lQry, He.pralqed lts.detecMYe8 and said that It, would be. a good Idea to let first off e'ders see the Yard's organization .for , detecting f criminals. "Delightful Idea," sneered Stir .. ling, " Woutd.be criminals conducted through Scotland Yard. Might help thei.a lot No doubt Jt, Is , easy, to catch old, offondera. Ono Dilgbt still "do a first crime and get away with It." ' Again there wub uncanny silence., Evelyn shivered slightly. "Shall we go In?" she asked. "It's getting "cold.": -'" , As tbey moved toward the bouse, Jlmmle, slipped to ,MarJorle's. side. "Thli Is a' trying tlnie.for ypu,".he eald gently, ''but -don't worry too much. The truth will be discovered." "Cei, Uioy .proye Joe ..Allen ,dld It?" , To Jlmmle the. form . of the whisp ered ,quostion sounded strange. She did. not ask If Allen committed the crime, but If It could be brought home to, him. Was It tense eager ness for proof? Or coi-ld It, be. that other fears or some'.h' approach lug .knowledge would let her sacrl- Qoo the Innocent rather than face a dread alternative? "It be did It," answered Jlmmle, "ho Is not. likely to escape. Not one murderer In fifty does." Tho girl shlvorod, though It was a warm night. r ., "Your sister ead you had not boon, sleeping," he went on. "why tloult.you got. a. sedative from the doctor?" She made no answer, and ho added, "Have you seer. Or. Neth erton. today?" "No." "Ills mother said be was busy. I suppose ho couldn't get over this ovonlng?" "We did not, ask him." So BUI Netherton had not been asked. This to Jlmmle proved they woro not openly lovers, or he would have come without being a&ko.d. It they were lovers In secret, they might wish to keep apart until. Rich mond's suspicious were lulled, Jlmmle knew there must be some thing hidden, but. It baffled him. Why had Stirling come to the house? How was ho coucernod?. , Tho dark-eyod Janet served them coffee and cakes In what was still called the young ladles' room. Stir ling suggested piaylng cards, but the Idea was not much liked, and when Duckworth declined to sing. a seemed to agree ttu' musla and mirth would hardly be seemly In the bouse of sorrow. Then Jimmy had a happy thought. Ho turned ' to Duckworth. "Is It as easy for slngors to get engagements todry as It was In the days before the movies and other modern amusement virtually elim inated the concert.hr Us?" ho asked. Duckworth, without directly an swering the quostlon, polntod to the modorn domnnd that varloty pro grams Include two or three good singers. "Listeners domand It," be addod. "Speaking of listeners." said Don ald, "bow does the radio nffoct you?". "Badly. Tho broadcasters hire a doicn artists and put hundreds out of employmont." i "How about the grapbophone?" continued Jlmmle. "I halo It. There are royalties, ot course, from records, but they reduce attendance at entertain ments." v I "1 would sever hou one In my bouse," said Evelyn warmly. "Have you ever tried one?" asked .Jlmmle. "No, Aunt Annabelle would never! allow it" And so the talk went on, at, least making tbe evening more pleasant.; When Jlmmle returned. with. bis) friends to their home, a message was a walling. .him, left, the, maid said, by .a policeman ion, a bicycle.
