Show COLLIE FINDS LOST GIRL New York Broker's Child Lost All Day, Is Trailed by the Canine. New York. After half the population popula-tion of Flatbush searched most of the day for her, Helen Mossien, five years old, is safe in the home of her father, Edward Mossien, a broker, in Brooklyn, and Gypsy, her pet collie, who followed her devious trails through many miles of streets and is a pensioner for life. The rest of the family was at church in the morning when Helen went out at nine o'clock to call Gypsy. When Helen had not returned at noon, her parents went out to search. Soon they had the neighbors helping them, and by three o'clock half of Flatbush, including the police, were trying to find the little girl. At 3:30 o'clock GypGy returned home alone, and an idea occurred to Harold, a thirteen-year-old brother of the girl, who had been reading books of adventure. Taking Gypsy to Helen's Hel-en's rom he made him smell of various articles of clothing she had worn, and rubbed one of her shoes on his nose. That gave him the scent he was to follow, and the children took him to the street and he quickly started off with his nose to the ground. It was long after dark, at 6:30 o'clock, that Gypsy darted around a corner, and when Harold came up to him he had found little Helen and was licking her face with. his tongue while she cried and tightened her arms about his bushy neck. |
