AT the Opera House

"The Master Mind" in which Lio-
mel Barrymore will be seen at the
Opera House, on Friday, is the first
of a series of four important photo
plays he will star in during the new
season. All of these productions will
be released through the Associated
First National Exhibitors Circuit.
"The DEVILS Garden" by w. B. Max
well, will be the second offering Of
the series, being scheduled for re-
lease on or about November 22nd.
Does a man love a girl merely for
her exterior beauty, her paint and
powder. her silks and satins, or does
he care for the soul beneath all this &?
rhis is one of the interesting questions
discussed in Mae Murray's newest
Paramount picture, "The Gilded Lily"
which will be the attraction next Mon
day and Tuesday at the Opera House.
One man takes one attitude and
another takes the other, over Lillian
Drake (Mae Murray, a dancer, and
the scenario writer has given her de-
cision interestingly. Lowell Sherman
heads a clever supporting cast.
What happens when the manly, am
bilious man settles down on easy
street? See the new Paramount pic
ture, "The Easy Road" starring
Thomas Meighan, at the Opera Hous

SENATE RESTS COAL
ISSUE WITH HOOVER
Withdraws Objection to Eff
forts to Cheek Prices and
Will Await Results.
INQUIRY DEMAND HELD UP
Secretary Receives Assurances
of Cooperation From the
x
National Merchants.

WASHINGTON, June 10.--Senatorial OBJ
lection to the Administrations efforts to
prevent rising coal prices was with
drawn to-day pending a demonstration
of the success of Secretary Hoover's
program of meeting the situation by
moral persuasion. wihie assurances of
cooperation were given the Com.'.eree
Secretary in his efforts by the National
Retail Coal Merchants Association.
Senator Walsh (Dem.. Mass) joined
with Senator Borah (Rep.. Idaho). i'll
announcing his intention of withhold
ing at this time demand for Con-
gressional investigation of the coal
price problem. although he declared that
If advances In prices were not overcome
quickly he would seek to determine the
Il profteerins existed
Roderick Stephens of New York,
chairman OF the board of directors of
the Retail Coal Association, wrote Mr..
Hoover that his organization would inn
mediately study the specific suggestions
offered as a policy for the guidance of
the retail coal trade.
Developments in the coal price con-
troversy since his conference with
Senator Borah last night were regarded
to-day by Mr.. Hoover as giving him
the support and cooperation necessary
to push his program of moral persua-
sion to keep charges for fuel from
climbing during the emergency.
Senator Borah's useful warning"
Mr.. Hoover said tonight. that no aid
or comfort will be given from the COM
mittee of the Senate of which he is
chairman to those who have refused
to cooperate in the voluntary plan of
restraining coal prices will, trust. put
an end to the recent actions of some
people in attempting to upset these ar
rangements through Senatorial support.
THE National Coal Retailers Associa-
tion now informs me that they wish to
cooperate, and | have no doubt they
will reply to my original propositions
In the meantime various State and
local retail associations are assuring
me that they will play the game Some
of the smaller groups of operators have
so far refused to accept the basis that
! have proposed, but the larger fields
are cooperating to solve difficult situa-
tion. as witness the halt in prices and
their reduction in the last few DAYS
There seems to be some mistaken
impression that the Secretary of Com
merce has eany duty or authority TO
control prices other than the desire of
the Administration to use its good Of
fices to protect the public. Congress has
given no powers to the Administration.
and in their absence, IL these good
offices prove Intellectual, it is up TO
Congress to devise some other method"

Gudn-to-Bed Stores BY j. p nezOe,

Mother Cockroach rushed to seize her
child and carry him off to safely, but
it was too late. A gigantic, blunt in
strument--it was the potato masher,
childreu-cam down swiftly upon poor
Clarence's back and he died unani- :
mously. BY the time the blunt instru-
ment had been raised again Mr.. and
Mrs. Ebenezer Cockroach had scuttled
off to a place of safety.
TNI1E following night most curious
L thing happened. Tho ghost OF a
cockroach was seen walking up and
down over the very spot where Clar-
ence had been killed. And every night
at about the same time and In the same
place this same cockroach ghost was
seen,
The pantry mice said it wasn't Clar-
ence. The water bugs said 1t was.
,Mr. and Mrs. Ebenezer Cockroach said
sometimes it looked like him and some =
times not. But whoever it was, every
body was afraid Of II. And finally the
fear spread until nobody would come
near this sink after the light went out
in the kitchen. 1t became known far
and wide as the Sink Which Was
Haunted by the Ghost of Murdered
COckroach.
And, children, If you doubt this
story, all you need to do Is to go out
into the kitchen and you will find the
sink out there just as | have told you.
And that's the end Of the story,

Landlord Likes Our "PhilIles"

To the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir-During the last month l have
had the pleasure of entertaining, here
in my hotel, the Philadelphia National
League baseball club. and Il you will
permit me, ! would like TO inform the
public. through the medium Of your val
liable columns. that never in my six
teen years in this business have l quar-
tered a more gentlemanly and refined
group of young men.
When 1t was first intimated that the
club would train in Leesburg l was
warned not to throw open my rooms to
ball players.
They will chase your tourists"
was informed. There will be rough :
house and rowdyism. loud talking and
to sleep. It will ruin your trade If
you take ball players IN"
I didn't put up an argument, for
such pessimistic talk is wasted on me.
/ didn't believe that the Philadelphia
club was composed of rowdies and l IN
vited the boys to my house and gave
them all the privileges and conveniences
l had to offer.
never once doubted my convictions.
The boys came on March l and found
them every one to be perfect gentle
men, and this was more impressed on
me as the days Of the training season
went by.
Let me state for the benefit Of those
who may doubt the character and re-
finement of ball players, that sixteen Of
the thirty lone athletes who were here
are college graduates: five attended COL
lege, but did not take a degree; six Of
the others are high school graduates,
and twenty five of the thirty -one served
Uncle Sam in uniform during the war.
These figures were made by actual can
vass.
It has been a source Of great personal
qualification to have my thoughts con
cerning the Philadelphia National
League baseball club vindicated.

The Haunted Sink

once upon time, dear children,
" there was n kitchen sink which was
haunted. Some years back ghastIy
tragedy had been enacted upon this
scene, cruel murder had been com
mitted, an innocent victim had been
done to death with a blunt instrument.
(Johnny, get off the piano.
The victims name was Clarence. OF
course, that was his given name. His
family name was Cockroach. Clarence
Cockroach was the son and heir OF Mr..
and Mrs. Ebenezer Cockroach, who had
lived In and around this sink ever since
the apartment had been built.
Clarence was their only child and they
were very proud of him. Every night
when the family had gone to bed, leav-
ing the dishes in the sink, Mr.. and Mrs,
Ebenezer Cockroach would take Clar-
ence out for little walk around the
dinner plates, guarding him carefully
from falling into the coffee cups, the
bottoms OF which were sticky with sugar
and therefore veritable death traps for
q small cockroach child.
DUT one night, as they were dining
ID delicately and promenading around
the dishes In the sink, thunderous
tread was heard, a binding light sud-
denly flooded the kitchen and a tre-
mendous face loomed up over the sink
