jamin William Franklin Harrison
Snowfall Peterson made a lot of trou-
BILE for his father yesterday on a very
short acquaintance. His fathers name
is merely Ben Peterson and he has found
by experience that he didn't have name
enough to make a brilliant success in
life. So when the young man arrived
yesterday morning Ben had a name
that he thought would answer the
purpose all ready for him and wrapped
him up in it at once. Ben says the
youngster weighed in at II IL pounds
and is big enough to take care of him
self against all corners in his class.
There are four children in the Peter
son family now, but three of them are
girls who refuse to shine shoes, hence
son was necessary to insure a per-
petuatiOn of the family meal ticket
Both the boy and his mother are do
ing we'll. The old man is able to be
around, but one of his legs IS a little
longer than it really ought to be.
