Further Consideration

Give the young folks proper pla-
ces in which TO have their recreation

not suitable, with a probable result
ant lowering of the moral standard
was the gist of the large thought left
with the members Of the Kiwanis
club by Audrey Williams, secretary
Of the Wisconsin conference for
social work, at the weekly luncheon
on Wednesday at the Park restaurant
Mr.. Williams talk was replete
with humorous stories and was much
enjoyed by those hearing him. He
stated that conditions were different
now from what they we're years ago
II used to he all work, but now there
is a tendency to some play. In in
dustry now nearly oDethird Of the
time is left for recreation and this
includes the movies 10 the greatest
extent. Various forms Of athletics
should be embraced IN the re
creation program but are not con
sidered as they should be. Many
persons that have the leisure time dc
not know how to enjoy themselves.
The speaker brought out most
forcibly the point that young people
tbOys and girls) must have fun. They
will dance-give them a decent place

young folks to have their dance a:

Mr. Williams suggested that j
would be a good thing for the Kiwan
is club to do something for a groul
of beings. Here was a problem TO

are doing in their leisure hours, sug

HUDSON MONEY
MAY BE ON BOAT
Relatives of Dead Negro
Satisfied Man Hid His
Horde
BODY WILL SLEEP
IN POTTER'S FIELD

Henry Hudson. the apparently
penniless Negro who was adrift in
mis- boat in the Delaware River in a
starving condition, and who later
died OF typhoid fever in the Della
ware Hospital and was buried in tha
county cemetery at Farnhurst- dfd
NOT starve because Of lack of funds,
according TO relatives who came
from Virginia this week and ar
ranged with Coroner Bullock to dis
pose OF the dead mans boat.
Hudson is said to have bean 4.
well-to-do Negro OF Smithfield. Va.
He lived on his boat most OF tn.
time as his wife had died. His three
children lived with an aunt.
Hudson did not trust banks and
never deposited his money in them,
believing II to be safer on his boat.
He frequently carried several hun
dred dollars with him in starting on
his trips and is thought to have Sc
creted all his money somewhere on
the boat when he found himself be-
Going weaker.
According to his relatives, Hudson
should have a considerable sum OF
money hidden somewhere, as he was
very thrifty, had little expense, and
Is known to have been saving money
on which ne expected to retire. This
money is thought to be hidden on
his boat, which lies IN the Christiana
river, but so far Coroner Bullock
has been unable TO locate any.
Others evidently suspect a hidden |
hoard on the boat as in the last |
few days several men have been al
most daily increasing their bids on
the little craft, which at first no |
one seemingly wanted at any price.
That others think the boat con-
tains a hidden sum Of money is
shown by attempts made during the
past week 20 steal the boat.
Coroner Bullock says he will sell
the boat to the highest bidder and
turn the funds over to the family
Of Hudson. In the meantime a
watch Is being kept for fear some
one may get aboard the boat and
find the hidden money.
The body OF Hudson viii be per-
mitted to remain buried at Farm
hurst as tho children OF the dead
man his family feel. are entitled
to all they can get from his estate.
