RICHARDSON FREE,
 BUDDIES TRAPPED
Two of Three Escaped New Haven County Jail
 Inmates Captured

Police today increased their ef- forts to capture Francis Richard son, g, of this city who escaped Thursday from New Haven county jail, spurred on by the recovery of his two companions, Robert Lind horn and Alcide LeBarnes, last night at the Springfield, Mass, rail- road station.
 Richardson was not with the other two, and police are of the opinion that he is hiding out in this vicinity. When questioned by Springfield police about Richardson, Lindhorn and LeBarnes are reported to have said, "Ee didn't make It." Jailer Nicholas Mona said last night in New Haven that he thought Rich ardson would walk in himself in two or three days. He was serving a two-months sentence on charges of taking an automobile without per- mission, and driving without H. cense.
 LeBarnes and Lindhorn, dressed in dungarees and leather jackets, got off a New Haven train in Springfield when Ben Hill of the Boston and Albany railroad police noticed them and took them to the police department for questioning. After refusing to answer questions at first, both men admitted to au- thorities that they were wanted by New Haven police.

MY MOTHER

There's no one quite like My Mother No one quite so divine Of course have Dad, Sis, and Brother But Mothers a little more mine. I love her as I love no other
 And when I'm away from her side The millions of things she's taught me Are my constant and faithful guide. She understands all my troubles She eases the pain when I'm i'll There's place in my heart that never Could anyone else really fill. I thank the Dear Heavenly Father Who sent her down from above For a Mother who's loving and gentle With heart filled with kindness and love. So these are my few simple reasons Why she Is so sweet and divine Why love her so completely
 This wonderful Mother of mine.
