BOY LOSES MOTHER IN
CROWD AT LOCAL STORE

Little Sheldon Westwood has lost
his mother.
Sheldon is only 10 years old, and
it is pretty tough on young fellow
like that TO lose his best friend, even
though it may be only for a short
time.
Saturday morning Sheldon and his
mother left their home near the
Michigan state line for South Bend
TO do some Saturday shopping. That
is, Sheldon's mother was TO do the
shopping and Sheldon was going u
help her carry the bundles.
They arrived in South Bend with
out mishap. and alighted from the
interurban at Washington av. and
Michigan s.. about 10 o'clock. That
is the last the boy saw Of his
mother.
Late Saturday afternoon the clerks
at Ellsworth's department store no
ticed a youngster wandering about
the store as if he were lost. His
little face was begrimed, and tears
had made burrows down his cheeks
where they had plowed through the
dirt
The clerks mOthered the boy as
best they could after he had told
them that he had become separated
from his mother. They gave him his
supper and were making plans for
taking care of him during the night
If his mother was not found in the
meantime.
f. NJ. Hamilton, sos y. Scott ST.,
happened into the department store
about $50 Saturday evening TO
make some purchases and he no.
ticed the boy. lie made inquiries
and after hearing the youngsters
story offered to take Sheldon home
with him and TO keep him until the
mother is found.
Mr.. Hamilton notified the police
that he was going TO take the boy
home with him so that in the event
that Mrs. Westwood should inquire
at police headquarters. she could be
informed as 10 where her son may
be found.
Sheldon went unhesitatingly homo
with Mr.. Hamilton. though he asked
wistfully for his mother. No one
inquired at the police station Satur-
day for a boy answering SheldOn's
description.
