offered to sell kerself at auction to the
highest bidder, it not washing her own
shirts this week. According to a per
sonal letter, not intended for publica
tion, which ahe sent to her mother in
Washington, she ha received aa ocean
of "bids" to her "For Sale" advertise
ment, which did not get into the adver
tising columns of the Chicago
because of the alertness of a "front
counter boy," which resulted in her get
ting all the space she wanted and start'
ing oa the front page of the newspa

18th page. One bid is from a n illion
aire. The letter to her mother fol
