Proud Fathers Want
Their Own Babies
Newark, N. J.—Two fathers swapped
babies in the maternity ward at City
Hospital Tuesday and the dove of
peace fluttered into two homes where
the stork had been a recent visitor.
Mrs. Bessie- Verity and Mrs. Sarah
Lapore were patients at the hospiiul
at the same time. When Mrs. Verity
was discharged site was given a baby
boy, although she protested that hers
had been a girt.
Mrs. Lapore. discharged at the same
time, took home with her a newly-born
baby girl.
“How’s that ” Queried the proud
father, when he saw the infant. “They
told me it was a boy.”
So he bundled up the baby, took it
back to the hospital, and there found
Papa Verity with a similar bundle.
The nurse who had attended the two
women consulted her records, admitted
that she had made a mistake and re
distributed the babies to the proud
fathers—and collapsed.
