STREETER'S LONG
FIGHT NEARS END
DECISION MARCH 18 IN 81
YEAR CONTEST FOR CHI
CAGO LAKE SHORE.

Chicago, March 15.-The final dc
cision in the case Of Captain"
George Wellington Streeter, who
ior 81 years has fought pitched bat
ties, skirmishes and court fights for
possession OF 16S acres OF Lake
Shore Drive land, valued at millions
OF dollars, probably will be handed
down in the circuit court here on
March Is.
Streeter, who with a small NUM-
Der Of hackers, had heretofore sue
cessfully resisted all attempts, both
physical and legal. to oust him from
the property, which he claimed by
squatter right and named the Dis
trict of Lake Michigan recently
lost a court action for possession Of
the land, and was ordered to yacatc
at once. The court, however, later
changed the ruling so that Strceter
was allowed until March Is to re-
quest an appeal to the supreme
court. If by that time he has made
no appeal or his appeal is denied,
the court order directs the sheriff
to evict him.
Streetcr declares that in 1886 he
was shipwrecked on the shore OF
Lake Michigan, near Lincoln park.
The wreck was allowed to remain
there and he lived upon it and sand

so FAR AND YET so NEAR.

"It is only a narrow stream.
Stones can be thrown across the
river User at almost any point. Yet
the warring hosts crowding either
bank are as far apart as the poles.
Between America and her asSo-
ciatcs the ocean intervents-an
ocean so wide that even the sea gulls
fear to cross. for seven days and
seven nights ships plough through
the waters of the Atlantic carrying
men and supplies to the soldiers and
civilian armies over there. And yet
across this stretch OF sea, hands
reach out and clasp, hearts touch,
and space is eliminated
Such is the ncarneSs we feel to
those who are fighting for us and
with us. And though America can
not yet be in the vanguard as re-
CARDS fighting, she can even now be
in the front line as regards feeding.
In the early wars, armies had to
be fed entirely from those supplies
in their immediate ncighborhood.
fighting all along that line in France
and Flanders can be fed from far
off America.
Americas surplus OF wheat from
this years harvest had all been
sent by December. An urgent ap-
peal has again come from 10000
( 600 10 90000,000 more bushels.
/ This must be saved from our normal
consumption. 1t has been estimated
that already we have saved OF this
amount about 25,000,000 bushels. If
we can save one-third OF our us
ual consumption, we can answer
their plea for help.
The fats so necessary for human
strength and for the further pro-
duction of ammunition, are being
guarded more and more carefully
We should not use more than three
fourths of a pound per person per
week, and only 8 ounces for chill
dren under 10.
Even milk can be furnished from
this distance and so we are being
asked not to waste a drop. Chill
drcn must have their full quota but
none must be wasted.
This long distance feeding means
ships for sending the food and ii
means the saving of food to send
The former we are building and
equipping as fast as possible. The
latter we are accomplishing by eat
ing OF other things ourselves and
sending the wheat, meat, fats and
sugar that are best suited for ship
ping and best fitted to give the most
body fuel. Surely this is but a
small sacrifice for us to make fol
those soldiers and civilians who
though remote from us in miles
are so close to US in spirit.

THE FLOUR OF THE ARMY

Wars are no longer all bullets
and blades; they are also bread and
beef. 1t has been the business of
an army to lead in fighting, and the
business of civilians to lead in sup
plying food. In this war; especially,
it is The proud part of the men and
women at home to lead in food con-
seryatlon. We know as never be
fore that the soldier cannot fight
unless he is well fed that people
cannot support all the abnormal
conditions of war unless they are
we'll fed.
Bread is the foundation on which
we al rest. The most insistent drive
of the food administration has been
Save the wheatl" We must send
100000 bushels OF wheat over
seas before the first OF June. 1t
cannot come out OF our surplus, be
cause there is not any. it must
come out Of our saving.
Who is helping to save it? Are
you? You used to consume Zlo
pounds of flour a year in pre-war
DAYS. The food administration
wants YOU to consume only $50
pounds year now, 50 that this inn
peratively needed wheat may get
to the war workers and fighter in
Europe.
One hundred and fifty pounds OF
-four per person a year! But you
must look to your laurels. Our brave
army is leading you on your own
field. The soldier boy in the 81
camps and environments OF ouI
country is getting 36l pounds OF
flour per day. This is at the rate OF
13l pounds per person year. He
is 10 pounds ahead Of YOU, Stay-at-
homesl Salute the soldier who is
leading you, but make up your minc
that in this whcih is particularly
your lob he shall not continue tc
stay T. pounds of flour ahead.
