Twin babies were born to Mr. and Mr
Frank Baker of this city, a fine boy and

is the fact that one was born at 1 1 :66

iorn at 12:04 the mornina of the 28th
consequently their birthdays win be on
different days. Mr. and Mrs. Baker are
also the proud possessors of twin daught
ers aged six years, also a daughter aged
seventeen and a daughter aged four,
whose birthdays are on the 16th of
March. The-babies both weighed four
and one half pounds each and are doing
nicely.
