COL. PETER A GRANDDAD

1t is astonishing how honors come,
once they get started. Now Col. Peter
0. Knight, after having achieved fame
as national legal authority, and an
all-round popular fellow, has received
the final star in his crown Of earthly
glory. His son, Joe knight, of Elfers,
wires to the world of friends that Mrs.
Knight has brought joy to the house
hold by presenting him with a fine
baby boy. OF course Col. Peter will
file his claim at once. He always does
lay claim to desirable possessions and
has acquired many. This. however, is
the greatest gift of all. For since our
boys and girls have grown up and. we
have lost our babies, we have.,an emp
ty void which can be filled only, by the
music Of the baby's lips. And now this
void in the colone1's heart is filled.
And better than all, by boy. .' ,
We congratulate our friend. the
colonel, and incidentally Joe and Mrs.
Knight. Sans Souci will now take on
a new light and joy as the baby pratt
tie begins to be heard about the place.
