is also keen student of practical
jokes.
They were having house party at
the Williams home here, recently. and
some of the young people asked the
senator to cooperate with them in
playing a merry trick on his son. The
plan was to squirt a quantity OF ice
water over the transom on young VIII
liams after he had retired for the
night. AS father and son were shar-
ing the same bedroom during the
house party, the senator would get to
witness the result of the experiment,
and he entered into the spirit OF the
prank with much zest. He Indicated
the bed occupied by his son and with
his own hands helped to rig up the
ice water apparatus.
About one o'clock that night wild
snort of dismay from Senator Will
.liams echoed and re-echoed through
the house.
He had absent-mindedly gone to
sleep in his sons bed.
