Moyer, of 408 Crescent street, was taught songs and rhymes when he was I a baby. Gerald, however, oang those i l.aby songs just the least bit better 'than the average baby. When he was | a little more than a year old, he sang ' that once popular song, "Bill Bally" | from beginning to end. Not so very much attention was paid to the little fellow though, un til about fifteen months ago when he took part in a cantata at the Market Square Presbyterian Church. At that time his voice was considered so re markable that his parents decided to allow him to study music. Since that i time he has improved wonderfully and i has taken part in a number of enter ! tainments about the city and vicin j ity. Gerald will be one of the drawing cards at the .audeville show to be • u-iven in the basement of St. Francis' Church, Market street, near Fifteenth, i Tuesday and Wednesday even ji..j,s. He will appear in a miniature minstrel act, "A Few Mirutes of Min strelsy" as the boy soprano soloist and interlocutor. With him will be as sociated George Sutton, Benjamin F. Glass, Wilson Ebersole, J. Thomas I Keesey, M. William Kennedy, Howard Hitz, and two well-known fun mak ers, George C. MarUn and Ralph E. Schrack. Master Gerald Moyer is the son of Joseph W. Moyer, conductor of the wreck train of the Philadelphia and Reading railroad. GET DUTYOUf GLAD IS EASTER DAY [Continued from First Page] a bloom. Lilies are 5 cents less per bloom this year and can be had for 20 cents a flower. Azaleas are selling at from 75 cents up to $5 each. Hydraijgeas, more plentiful this year than in the past five years, are here in many colors and double j blooms. They sell from $2 to $5 a plant. A feature In the sale of flow ! ers this year is that not only florists but every storekeeper in Harrisburg is a factor in supplying the demand. Some Easter luxuries will be high in price—such as strawberries and | Spring lamb. The Southern straw berries were hit hard by the recent | cold spell and are scarce. Strawber- I ries are selling for 6 0 cents a box. I Spring lamb is also scarce at 40 cents i a pound. Tomatoes are cheaper this I year and can be had for tnree tor 10 cents. Lettuce, celery and early gar- I den produce will be reasonable in price. Eggs Are Plentiful Eggs will not be scarce as was first | reported. They were plentiful to-day \ and sold at 22 cents a dozen. This • price will prevail to-morrow. There was an unusual demand for eggs to day, according to local dealers. Harrisburg's school children con tributed hundreds of eggs during the last two days for the Children's In dustrial Home and other charitable institutions, in accordance with the usual custom. Just how many dozens were gath ered has not yet been figured out be cause the committee in charge is busv with the count. That the number will run about the same as in previous years is generally expected, however. As a rule the youngesters donate on an average of an egg each, although the total varies. The eggs, as well a3 groceries that are frequently brought by children who don't want to carry an egg, are packed and distributed to the various institutions. Wednesday and yesterday were egg collection days in the schools.

SCHMUJOW FURIIIES STORIES [Continued From First Page] nation, giving their reasons for this the attitude toward Lee on the part of the State organization. "The statement from county head quarters is as fol ows: " 'We think it is time that the action of the Democratic State organization in soliciting funds from postmasters, directly contrary to law and certainly ontrary to the highest ideals of poli tics as exemplified by President Wood row Wilson, should be known to the Democrats not only of Pennsylvania but the nation at large. " 'There are only half a dozen Demo crats in charge of post offices In fchuylkill county, and only three of these are drawing salaries of over SJ,OOO a year. All were appointed upon the recommendation of Con gressman Robert E. Lee. In the lat ter part of January the three latter postmasters, one of whose salary is SI,BOO, a second $2,400 and the third $3,100, were visited by Wilson Bailey, an agent of Democratic State head quarters. Bailey asked that thi'se postmasters contribute 5 per cent, of •heir year's salary to the Democratic State treasury, promising that part of tills money would be returned by the >'tate committee to the county com nittee. The contributions were all to he made not later than May 1, al though at that time all the post-! masters will have been in office con siderably less than a year. " 'As an encouragement to timid or reluctant postmasters Bailey declared that Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen eral James I. Blaksiee had already contributed sfioo to the same fund, and that favorable action would be highly appreciated by State officials. " 'When informed that such contri butions were not only contrary to law ind civil service regulations, as well is good public policy, Bailey suggested method of cohering up the conte ntions by postmasters contributing " 'To postmasters whose attitude gave Bailey the idea that they would will ingly contribute, but were not ready to lo so at once, the State solicitor pre sented the following form of promis sory note for them to sign: "X prom ise to pay to the treasurer of the Pennsylvania State Democratic com mittee as contribution to campaign funds the sum of . (Signed) " 'The Democratic State organization has taken a hostile attitude toward Congressman Robert E. Lee, and this attempt to solicit funds from the post masters in his district, if successful, would probably have resulted in part of the funds being used to defeat Lee for renomination. as James 1. Blakslee and others closely connected with the State organization are known to have lately been in consultation with Daniel F. Guinan, Lee's opponent for the congressional nomination. "If the officials of the State organ ization desire, we can produce proof such as would be accepted in any court of law for all of the above state ments'."
