HOPEFUL BROOKLYN MOTHER
REVIEWS HER SEARCH FOE HER
MISSING FOUR-YEAR.OLD BOY.

New York, Jan. 2.-Renewed en-
etgies today emphasized the three
year search for little Robert Allen
Striker, the four-year-old Brooklyn
boy who disappeared while his step
father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. VII
liam Richter, were at their summer
home at st. Petersburg. Fla, Dec. .12
1S14.
Information concerning the appear
ance OF strange boy in a Southern
Texas town has created hope in the
mother that the boy is yet alive and
Is to be found.
Robert disappeared from the front
porch of the Florida home. Mr.. and
Mrs. Richter had gone Sonth to en-
gage extensively in the chicken busi-
ness. No reasonable theory could be
advanced for his disappearance
Inc only nearby body of water. a
Day was dragged. That work ended
the theory of drowning.
AS the search continued, the cbild,s
playmate, Rex, came in for much at
tention. 1t was noted the dog cow
cred at the sight Of a man in mill
tary uniform.
Each time that a man annearod
before him in uniform the dog wou1a
whine and crawl away. This infer
esting fact led the parents to believe
the child, while the dog was with
MIN, was kidnepad by someone n
uniform. This theory remained IN
tested. on-

ceaseiess search, has engaged conn
sci IN Texas and is begfnning anon,

of the alleged case. One man is said
to be a minister. They were resi-
dents of Suzanne county.
The trial which is scheduled for

est. The men, It is alleged, are the

The Sugar
Shortage

Early in the fall the public was
notified that France was entirely
without sugar and that she would
remain without unless the United
States shared its supply with her.
The minimum quantity needed to
carry the French people to the end
of the year was estimated at 100000
tons. That estimate was based on
their consumption of one ounce a day
per capita. Inasmuch as our ordinary
consumption is four ounces day,
it was felt by our government thai
we could, and should, save one-fourth
Of cur supply and let France have
it. And the public, in 30 far as it
paid any attention at all to the mat
ter, appeared willing and glad to
make this slight sacrifice.
TIE food administration then pro-
ceeded to send France the sugar IL
needed, taking care also, as well az
1t could. of England and other allies
whose supplies were far shorter than
ours. Since August, Mr.. Hoover says,
we have exported to our allies alto
gether little more than 10000
tens Of refined sugar. About ESQ. 900
tons of raw sugar have gone to them
from Cuba.
That, of course, is the reason why
We have been short of sugar. Even
SO, we should not have experienced
the shortage we have, if we had dono
our part and saved the ounce a day
apiece. 1t appears that the maiority
OF Americans have really paid little
attention to the matter. They hay.

The duty of the American people
to economic In consumption of food

OLD FRIENDS ARE BEST

True friendships like the old oak
tree,
When bending to the blast,
1t sinks its roots in safety,
And holds on to the last.
And so 1t is with old-time friends
Well never let them go
Until our earthly troubles end,
Because we love them so.
We love our friends, for don't YOU
see,
They know us to the core
And bring again to memory
The youthful days once more.
We love our friends the very best,
The reason why is clear,
We love them better than the rest,
They've proved themselves sincere
NO matter where grim duty sends
Us onward by the way,
We treasure then few old friends
To chum with while we stay.
And when we leave this world OF
care
TO bask in Heavens sunshine,
Well hunt cozy corner there
And sing of "Auld Lang Syne."
