As the case unfolds, the evidence all point to this seemingly harmless indivi- dual as‘being a ruthless and cun- ning killer. The murder of Nina Politzer, head ' of the opera company, serves to place several people under suspic- ion in addition to the wig maker. A ing fact is that the opera as supposed to have sailed for South America, and when killed is wearing a gray wig to disguise her- self an old woman And the wig was not made by the suspect, but by a rival, who easily establishes his innocence. Then the murder of this second wig-maker points to an un- known criminal who has cunningly as contrived to make the company's wigmaker appear guilty. Or is it Jjust a part of that innocent appear- ing person’s fiendish scheme to pin the crime upon someone he hates? Thus the mystery moves toward a surprising denouement that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat. — eee NOTICE! PROI'ZRTY OWNERS | Buyers are waiting for Douglas property. Let us sell yours.
