WILSON DEMOCRATS ARE
INCREASING IN IOWA
Sons Born ON Same Day to Nephews
Who Married Sisters Who Are Cou-
sins to Local Woman Children
Named After President.

Speaking of strange condolences I"
here's one that tops them all Mrs
Il. A. Strahorn of this city this morn
ing received an announcement of a
birth of sons on the same day to her
two nephews, Harry and George Stra-
horn. who married sisters by the name
of Wilson, who are cousins of hers,
The births occurred on President Will
sons birthday and of course derive
ents being Wilson democrats. Here
is the item telling of the coincidence
which appeared in recent issue of
an Iowa Falls paper:
Two births that will attract more
than usual attention occurred week
ago last Sunday, the anniversary of
the birth of President Wilson. Harry
Strahorn of Robertson and George
Strahorn of Rowan. are brothers. and
they married two sisters, both Miss
Wilson's of Robertson. Both are
staunch democrats and Wilson men,
and the stork arrived at their homes
the Sunday that marked his birthday
and left baby boy at each place,
the times of arrival being just a half
hour apart. George Strahorn i'm
mediately sent a message to his broth
er announcing the arrival of the boy
and saying that he and his wife had
named the youngster Woodrow Will
son Strahorn. Harry had the same
name picked out and may use it but
will more probably use the name of
wilsop Woodrow. If this keeps up
the rows of woods around here will
soon be full of Wilson democrats.
