prose that was Mr.. Whites par

thrown by her horse, as first re-
ported. "She could ride any

the proud father claimed.
White continued by pointing
out it was Mary's custom to ride
through town, waving and talk

while waving at newsboy ac-

quickly, and struck her against

The achievements Of famous
fathers and their sons have also
filed many chapters in Amer
lean history. Among the first to
attain such renown were John
Adams and John Quincy Adams
of Massachusetts,, who served as
the second and sixth Presidents
of the United States.
Recent attention has also been
focused on oliver Wendell
Holmes Jr., who served on the
u. S. Supreme Court for 80
years, and whose life was drama
tized in the movie, Magnificent
Yankee Oliver Wendell Holmes
Sr., of course, was an outStand-
ing physician and a major Amer
lean poet.
Fathers everywhere, it seems,
have their work cut out for them
if they are to continue this illus
