The Fiery Cross a Klan paper in Indianapolis which h *' advertised her as an ex-nun, ilk I s December 17, 1922 issue, carried the follow ing: “She (Helen Jackson) makes a liv ing out of the game and so does her husband. Her mission is purely mer cenary. Mrs. Jackson was never a nun. She poses in what slip says Is a nun’s garb, but it is not.
