Lie proDiem ror the small farmer or mar
ietlng and distributing his products In
his. and nearby states." said one of tho

tnous or our problems. If wo can put
k spurn larmer on a level with the big
Jinner In disposing of his crops, then
ire can cut down tho prices."

BIDDERS RUSH TO BUY
HIDDEN CASH; "STUNG!"
Old Furniture at Sale of North
Wales Woman's Effects
Doesn't Yield Wealth
NOItTH "WALES, Pa., Feb. 7. Lively
bidding and eagerness to buy almost
valueless old articles at the salo of tho
effects of the late Mrs. Margaret Gor
don, of North Wales, caused amazement
to tho executors and persons In charge
of the sale, until it was learned that a
rumor had been circulated that a for
tuno was concealed In tho hair stufllng
of old furniture, sewed In ancient bed
clothing, slipped In the backs of books,
In secret compartments of old furnlturo
and between the leaves of magazines.
Two hundred persons attended the sale.
It Is said that one woman found $100
In her purchases, and that others, discov
ered smaller amounts. But there has
been no rush to North "Wales banking
institutions to deposit money of a dato
of a half century ago. It seems that
tho only outcomo of the rumor has been
tho destruction of furniture and other
articles purchased at tho sale. In an
effort to llnd tho supposed hidden wealth.
This Is the second time North Wales
folk have been "stung" by concealed
treasure rumors. Several months ago a
laborer, working In a ditch, found a cor
roded J20 gold piece. A report waa circu
lated that tho laborer had come upon a
hidden treasure. A miniature '43 gold
rush followed, but the hidden treasure
did not materialize,
FAT MAN FALLS ON GIRIH ,
Eloven-ycar-old Child Badly Injured'
While Sledding in Westmont ,
A 150-pound man, knocked off hla feet
by a sled, fell upon Virginia Poinsett, 11
years old, of 222 Virginia avenue. West
mont, Camden County, and the girl Is In
a serious condition at her home today
with a fractured left shoulder and other
Injuries.
Tho girl was coasting on Lees avenue
when the stout man started to waddle
across the coasting course at the base
of tho hill. L ,
Virginia was flying- down the hill on
her Christmas sled, U.e tassel of her
red cap flying In the breeze.
Sho saw tho fat man and she called,
"Clear the track, clear the track." The
stout pno gazed at the oncoming child as
If fascinated. A look of bewilderment
overspread his face and he made a fran
tic efTort to remove his huge bulk from
tho path of the sled. Virginia also tried
to steer the sled to one side, but the man
of many pounds, In hla bewilderment,
planted himself directly In her path.
There was a dull grunt from the fat man
as the sled catafulted Itself against the
back of his legs. With a grunt of an
guish and a helpless putt he sat down
forcibly upon poor little Virginia. Her
body was nattenea in me snow; mo oone
In her right shoulder was broken by the
great weight and the child became un
conscious. It required the combined efforts o( five
other coasters to lift the big man. Vir
ginia was taken to her home.

the story this morning:
"When Henry taw my plcturo ho fell
In lovo with me, and sent mo his picture.
I promptly fell In lovo with him. Wo
kept writing to each other, and about a
month ngo he proposed to mo and I ac
cepted him. A week ago ho sent mo tho

"MARIE-ODlLrTOBE
PTED AS RESULT.
OF CATHOLIC PROTEST
Several Changes in Parts Called
Offensive Ordered by Di
rector Wilson at
Conference
GERMANS MAY PROTEST
Certain lines offensive to Catholics Ih
"Marlo-Odllo" today will bo out from tho
play.
Tho changes which will be put Into
effect tonight nt the Adelphl amount
virtually to a censoring of tho produc
tion by the pollco. Plans for tho pruning
of the piny were outlined lit n conference
In tho office of Director of Tublle Safety
Wilson. Miss Kranccs Starr, who plays
tho part of tho novittato: Leonard nium
bcrg, mnnngor of tho Adelphl Theatre,
and several Catholic leaders participated
In tho conference.
Director Wilson listened attentively to
tho arguments of both sides. Ho said
ho had seen "Mnrlr-Odllo" nnd stated
that ho hnd not received a mistaken Im
pression of convent life, nor did he believe
that It wns nn untrue representation of
the routine In such a Catholic Institu
tion. Ho advised the producers, however,
to make several changes.
Certnln llne3 olTenslvo to Catholics will
bo cut from tho play today, nnd tho sccno
In which a Prussian sergeant nnd a cor
poral discuss n convent will bo remodeled.
Minor changes will also bo made In other
parts of tho dialogue.
Besides Miss Starr nnd Leonard nium
bcrg, manager of the Adelphl, tho follow
ing were present nt tho conference In
Director Wilson's ofllce:
Former Congressman J. Washington
t,oguc, John O'Dea, representing tho
Ancient Order of Hibernians; tho rtov.
John J. Wheeler, head of tho Catholic
Theatre Movement; Peter J. Hoban, rep
resenting tho Holy Namo Society; TranK
Young, business manager of the "Mario
Odllo" company; James A. Flaherty,
Henry B. Etlllm'nn, V. Phillips Dodgo
nnd Maurice J. Spclscr, attorney for tho
Shubcrts.
Miss Starr, It Is nndcrstood, mado an
Improsslvo plea for tho retention of tho
parts which met the objection of Phila
delphia Catholics. She took tho stand
ot her sponsor, David Bclasco,- In stat
ing that tho play was not Intended to bo
ofTenslvo to Catholics, but was only In
tended to present a realistic Interpreta
tion ot tho life of a novlco In a con
vent. Tho dialoguo between tho Prussian
sergeant nnd corporal which will be prun
ed from tho play, takes placo In tho
convent after It ha3 been invaded by a
company of Prussian soldiers. Tho
soldiers are boisterous In their manner
and thoy show scant reverenco for tho
sacred relics of the convent. They also
speak llrfhtly and roughly of the nuns.
Tho lino particularly objected to by
Catholics Is when the Prussian sergeant
remarks, "I havo been lr -nnvcnts
before."
Reports were current today that Ger
man societies of this city would mako a
demand that tho play bo suppressed.
LEADERS THY TO SAVE

tective Bureau has resulted In somo "tall
hustling" by Organization leaders who

ing tho changes, tho Director said ho

was freely predicted today that several

County Commissioner Bcott Is back of
tho movement to havo Kdward Agnew,
