Glad Her Attempt
at Suicide Failed

Mrs. Ethel Stofer, 38, of 1922 Wade
St, was improved at city hospital
today, glad her suicide attempt Sun
day failed.
She tried to end her life with gas
because dieting had reduced her
weight from 325 to 145 pounds, but
apparently failed to relieve her Of
the danger Of paralytic strokes.
She began dieting year ago after
a serious stroke, Mrs. Stofer said.
Sunday she fell and noticed other
indications that she was about to
suffer a stroke.
Despondent at the prospect Of an
other illness and because alone-her
husband had gone fishing Saturday
night-Mrs. Stofer turned on the gas
in the kitchen stove.
Neighbors, noticing the closed win
dows, Investigated, smelled gas and
called police.
Hospital attaches said she would
recover.

POUR S5,379 IN
LOCAL FUND FOR
FLOOD STRICKEN
Appeal for Additional Money
to Garry on Relief in
River Zones.

With approximately $5,379 re-
ceived, the local chapter of the
American Red Cross today renewed
its appeal for quick assets" 40 be
used in caring for the thousands OF
homeless in the Mississippi River
flood area
Mails and visitations to Red Cross
headquarters at M N. Meridian st.
since Saturday increased the
fund about $3,7O0, William Fortune,
local Red Cross chairman, said. Ad-
ditional mails and additional personal
visits today were expected to swell
the present total.
No Limit
There is no quota set for Indian
apolis-there is no limit" Fortune
declared. Every dollar that can
be given should be given and all
that can be subscribed will not be
too much for the unfortunate victims
Of the greatest Mississippi flood
that rivermen can remember"
From the city's pulpits, Sunday,
came the appeals that were answered
in cash contributions received
at headquarters. The Zion Evan
gelical Church led with s160. Many
other ministers reported and the day
will bring additional reports.
There is no personal solicitation in
the local drive. Whatever is OBJ
tanned here will be raised through
the appeals through the newspapers,
it was said at Red Cross headquart-
ers. With a hundred thousand or
more families homeless. and desti-
tute, facing illness from exposure,
Red Cross officials feel that the resi-.
dents of safe cities" will contribute
generously. through their sym
pathetic and charitable impulses.
The plea, however, is for immedi-
ate contributions. Most of the $5,-
600 already raised here will be sent
to Washington headquarters today
Checks received Sunday and today
included: Mrs. c. S .Crosley, 5000
