MRS. MARTIN BUSY
ON HER NEW PLAY
Author of "Erstwhile Susan" Is
Now Dramatizing "Her
Husband's Purse"
MRS. HELEN R. MARTIN
Mrs. Helen R. Martin, author of
"Barnabetta," "Her Husband's Purse,"
"The Crossways," and "Tilly, the Men
nonlte Maid," as well as various other
stories of the Pennsylvania Dutch is
•busy dramatizing "Her Husband's
Purse."
Mrs. Martin's clever novel, "Barna
bettu" was dramatized last year by
Marlon De Forest Into "Erstwhile
Susan," and with Mrs. Flske playing
the title role la a most wonderful suc
cess.
Mrs. Martin is a native of Lancas
ter county, and is quite naturally Inti
mately acquainted with that country,
the people and their customs.
"Those Fltzenbergers" Appear
In an interview the author an
nounced that her latest book, "Those
Fltzenbergers," relative to the quulnt
and queer "Dutch People," will be
published In the Spring, and asserted
that the criticism of her characters
being exaggerated is not at all plaus
ible.
Mrs. Martin said In part:
"The public has been so accustomed
to my work among the folks of Lan
caster county, that It would be al
most impossible for me to enter any
other Held. Next spring my latest
work in this line, 'Those Fltzenberg
ers,' will be published.
"There have been many criticisms
that the characters In 'Erstwhile Su
san' are exagget-ated and overdrawn.
As a matter of fact I underwrite rather
than overwrite. I admit that I take
extreme types—a type that is passing.
Those who resent the type I depict are
not the people themselves, because
they don't read anything and do not
know, perhaps of the book or the play.
But It is their descendants, who have
been educated, who feel that I don't
do them Justice.
"Every day of my life," she said, "I
hear stories confirming my works by
persons who formerly lived In the
places of which I write, and yet I am
accused by some of exaggeration."
ASSEMBLY THIS EVENING
The first assembly of the season will
be held this evening in Masonic Hall
with the Stauffer orchestra of Car
lisle playing. The hostesses will be

Olmsted and Mrs. Charles L. Bailey.
