THE SEATTLE STAR HERE’S MORE ABOUT ARTS ON PAGE 1 CO-ED A “HIRED GIRL” They told her there that Sadie was Good Cook? You Bet! Cooks Fudge So it was finally decided that I should come the following day on trial, and would receive, if satisfactory, Of course, I was to do the family cooking, so I said I was a good cook. AndI am a good coon —I can make the best chocolate fudge this side of Cowen park. The lady told me of other, applicants as I was leaving. “Yes,” she said, “I've had several, but they've all been inexperienced. I've even had a couple of University girls | here who wanted work for the summer, but dear me,” she | waxed enthusiastic, “they’ve been going to school all their | lives and don’t know anything about work,” “Goodness, no,” I agreed; “but don’t you worry about me.

It was thru this department that I came in touch with a little Jewish woman who was to employ me the following $30 a month. | ‘AUTO DROPS 40 FEET; ONE DYING.

Jeffries BY JAMES J. JEFFRIES Former World's Heavyweight Champion To my mind Jack Dempsey has yet to prove that he is a real heavy- weight champion. Those who really figure that Jack Dempsey will have a walkover with Curpentier are crazy. I don’t say Dempsey will not win, but I do say that there is nothing in his record to prove that he ls going to have any cinch with thie fast fellow Carpentier. I have talked with men who know something about fighting —what I would call smart fellows. After lis tening to them tell of Dempsey and Carpentier in action it seems to me that all this talk of the Frenchman lasting a round of so is pretty much the bunk. It ts embarrassing for me, because I have been tn the fighting game, to make comparisons between Dempsey and former holders of the heavy: weight uti But I may say that TWO TRIED FOR CALLING STRIKE Mine Workers’ Officers Face Industrial Court COLUMBUS, “Kans, June 27.— Alexander Howatt and August Dorchy, president and vice president of District 14, United Mine Workers, began their most determined stand against the Kansas industrial court here today. ‘Trial of the two on a charge of law by calling what is known as the Mackie mine strike began before Judge Boss of the district court here. Earty today onty about 300 miners had answered State Labor President Freeman's “call to action” and ap- peared here to attend the trial. Free- man tasued a call that all union men of Kansas “take a week's vacation” and attend the trial. “They'll be here by the thousands after the jury is selected,” Freeman, who is here, declared. It was expdct- | ed it may take all today and part of tomorrow to obtain a jury.
