EMBARRASSING. He wasn't much of a
baby at all when Mrs. Marshall
picked him out and carried him home
from the Washington diet kitchen
where his mother had brought him
in the hope of saving him from death
by starvation.
The youngest of seven children IN
a poverty-ridden family, Morrison did
not get his fair share of milk, and
his working mother had neither time
nor money to rescue him from the
illness that resulted from under
feeding.
But Morrison, even when half
starved, was such charming young
person that Mrs. Thomas MarShall
begged permission to borrow" him
for awhile to see what lavish human
love and the best scientific care could
do in the way of baby-saving. 1t
did everything.
Behold Morrison Marshall, one
wear after his borrowing by the
vice president and his wife-the hap
piest, healthieSt candidate Tor honorS
in a baby show that wealth, skill and
love can produce!
Mrs. Marshall carried sick little
Morrison out of the heat of a Wash
ington summer to the cool northern
woods-and rested and loved, and
fed him until he looked like reg

it was not easy for the Marshalls to
give UP Morrison.

should be no reasonable doubt as to
the legality of any change that might
be made in the form, or charter of the
city government, and because of the
reasonable grounds for a difference of
opinion on the question as shown by
the authorities and circumstances
mentioned herein, and considering
solely the public interest and welfare
of the city, / deem it my duty to
suggest to you the advisability of re-
fusing to order the election petitioned
for until it has been judicially deter
mined that section forty (40) has not
been repealed and is legally effective.
Furthermore, it is my opinion that
neither the clerks certificate nor the
accompanying petition meet the Legal
requirements so as to impose the duty
upon your board to order said cleo
ton.
Said section forty (4o) provides:
The sufficiency of such petition shall
be determined, the election ordered
and the results thereof declared in the
manner provided for other elections in
this act and the general laws of the
state of Florida and ordinances of said
city
Said act contains several conflicting
provisions. sections IA. II and 2s, re-
lating to the filing of petitions, de-
termining their sufficiency, for the
ordering Of special elections.
It is doubtful whether the quoted
portions of section forty (40) shall be
construed to require the sufficiency
of the petition therein provided for
to be determined by the board of
commissioners pursuant to sections
IA and 26. and other general provis-
ions. or by the clerk of the circuit
court under said sections IT and IS.
1t is my opinion that the clerks ac-
ton is contemplated and If his deter
mination and certificate meet the re-
auirements of said sections II and IS.
the board of commissioners would be
required to adopt same. But. the petit
ton which said section II requires
said clerk to certify to said board of
commissioners, nor his certificate do
not meet the requirements of said
sections.
Said section II provides that each
signer of the petition shall add after
his name and signature and opposite
thereto his residence and address
That this was done Is not shown by
the clerks certificate or the attached
petition.
