Secretarial Job Prosaic, Woman Wants
an Exciting Job.
Pittsburgh, Jan. 7. —"Young lady
wants work of exciting nature requiring
skill and nerve. Experienced diver and
physical culture instructress."
Investigation of this advertisement in
a Pittsburgh newspaper disclosed that it
had been inserted by Miss .Mary Craig,
aged 22, of Crafton, employed os a sec
retary.
"Life as a secretary is too prosaic,”
said Miss Craig: “there's nothing to
quicken the blood. I want something
with thrills.”
Just to afford a hint of the kind of
job she would like, she stepped front the
window of lier sixth-story office .upon a
narrow ledge and then, without steady
ing herself .with her hand, walked 40
feet along the ledge. She indicated' that
this was a sort of pastime.

“K. K. K.”
.Philadelphia, Jan. 7. —Katherine Mil
ler. rooming house mistress, was sen
tenced to from 10 to 20 years in the
county prison today f6r the fatal shoot
ing of Harry Kaboruaglo. a former
boarder, on a West Philadelphia street
corner, October 11th.
The jury, which brought in a second
degree murder verdict, with recommenda
tion of mercy, was out for more than 48
hours. Judge Harry McDevitt, ig
noring the merry recoimncndation, im
posed a maximum sentence, remarking
' that “any verdict but guilty would
have been equivalent to lynch law."
The defendant startled the court in
dramatic fashion after sentence was im
posed. Hitherto calm, she suddenly
rose and battled with court officers, dur
ing the struggle tearing bnek iter heavy
cape to_ display in white letters sewn
fit her black dress:
"K. K. K. Help K. K. K.”
Two officers finally subdued her and
carried her out bodily to the sheriff’s
cell room. On the way she screamed:
“Mrs. Hosier killed two and got away
free: and I have to go to prison !”
referring to a recent shooting case in
which the defendant was acquitted.
latter she told one of Iter counsel
that "a guardian angel” had suggested
to her to bcw the letter* on her dress.

LUTHERANS ARE GIVING RELIEF
North Carolina Lutherans Are Asked to
Give 825,000 of Total for Country.
I.iberty, Jan. 7.—The National Luth
eran .Council, a body representing near
ly two million American Lutherans, has
issued a call for this denomination to
raise the sum of $1,500,000 for Euro
pean relief. This amount will be used
in meeting the needs of destitute peo- 1
pies in Eurojiean countries especially in
Germany where one-fifth of the popula
tion is faced with actual starvation. The j
church is reliably informed by Dr. J. j
A. Moreliead, re|ef representative in j
Europe, that suffering from lack of food
and clothing is appalling. In a radio
gram tent from Leipsig <m December 5, *
Dr. Moreliead says: "Conditions far
worse titan on October 3. Four-fifths
of middle class hungry. Four million
workers unemployed and another four on
part, time. Tuberculosis spreading rap
idly among children, students and other
young people. Some institutions already
lost to the Protestant Church. Large
help essential to meet calamity, lairge
emergency relief being given pastors,
needy families and institutions. This {
must be extended throughout tile win- j
ter and feeding stations opened in 20 j
largest cities. Those able in Germany j
will help. Employ every effort to make |
appeal successful. Entreat eongrogn- j
linns to pray and work.' In respond to l
this message American Lutherans arc j
raising n large sum of money and ship- I
ping many pounds of clothing in order :
to relieve needy ones regardless of who
they are, thus carrying out in practical
manner the saying of Christ, "Inasmuch
as ye did it unto one of the least of
these ’’
For this appeal North Carolina Luth
erans arc asked to give near $25,000. I)r.
.1. L. Morgan of Salisbury, president of
synod, has sent a letter to pastors and
church councils, citing the conditions of
Europe uud calling upon them to re
spond liberally and cheerfully to his
call for help. Furthermore group meet
ings have been arranged for where the
cause of relief may be more fully dis
cussed. Such groups of pastors and peo
ple will meet in Salisbury, Concord, Gas
tonia. Dallas, Hickory, Maiden, Holly
Grove near Lexington. Friends and
Low’s churches near Greensboro and
other points. It is expected that t,hese
meetings will be fully attended ‘by pas
tors and people. Any person or organ
ization interested in helping this cause
may send check marked relief, to J. I).
Heilig. of Salisbury, N. C„ treasurer of
synod.
Since the close of the world war Am
erican Lutherans have contributed more
than $3,000,000 in money and millions
of pounds of elothing for the relief and
needy throughout 'the whole of Europe
and “God willing, the National Lutheran
Council, backed by the Lutheran forces
of America, will remain on the job in
Europe, until the misery brought about
by the unusual conditions, is vanquish
ed and (he churches there find themselves
and are able to administer to the needs
of the people.
JUDGE STACK ASKS
FOR BOXING INDICTMENTS
Editors Called^—Sport Writers of Char.
lotte Papers to Testify About Ring
Events.
Charlotte, Jan. 7. —A preemptory de
mand Upon the new Mecklenburg grand
jury to indict all who have had any
thing to do with recent boxing bouts
at the city aduitorium and any respon
sible for the operation of bucketsliops
or patrons of such, and of all delinquent
administrators, guardians and executors
of estates, were three bombs that Judge
A. M. Stack, of Monroe, presiding over
his first criminal court here, let fall in
the courthouse this morning.
Judge Stack made the audience in
the court room sit up when he called
the names of those wlm had recently
participated in boxing bouts and prize
fights at the auditorium and called upon
Solicitor John G. Carpenter to collabo
rate with the grand jury by drawing
billß of indictment and to present the
bills.
He cited- the names of Kid Peck and
Eddie Cook as having violated the North
Carolina law against boxing in a bout
at the city aduifotium Saturday night
a week ago and said they were guilty
of a felony under the North Carolina
law, which carries with it a penalty of
S6OO in fine in case of conviction, or a
year in the penitentiary or both.
Judge Stark also directed that Eddie
Briezt, sporting editor of the News, ami,
Bailey Groome, sporting editor of the
Charlotte Observer, be summoned* before
the grand jury tfi testify what they
knovp as to recent boxing bouts and prise
fights at the auditorium and to give
names of all they know who had aided
and abetted in the eventa. It

Others which Judge Stack said were
guilty of a felony under the North Car
olina law, after he had road the law
lin the hearing of the very client court
room, were Charlie Eddleinan and Kid
Johnson, who were recently on for a
bout at the auditorium, and Lukie Ten
ner, who "aided and abetted" Kid Harri
son and Young Mack, Tommie AValker,
and others. » .
He also said: "I want you gentle-.
men to find out who rented the city au
ditorium for these bouts, and who pro
moted them,” said Judge Stack. "Who
ever aided and abetted in the commit
ting of these felonies is guilty along
with the principals.
The law of North Carolina is specific
about the matter and it is your duty
as sworn officers of the law to see that
the law is enforced. Otherwise, you
are yourself guilty of dereliction of
duty.
“I instruct you gentlemen to have
Eddie Rrietz, sporting editor of the
Charlotte News, and Hailey , Groome,
sporting editor of the Charlotte Ob
server. before you to tell all
they know about these matters.”
As to bueketshops, he charged that
the law of North Carolina specifically
forbade dealing in cot'to.'n futures, in
futdre quotations on corn, wheat, oats
and other commodities. He asked the
grand jury to make investigation and to
bring indictments if they found anybody
violating the law.
