PLURAL BIRTHS ARE NOT AN UNMIXED BLESSING 
“The stork is one bird that does not go South with the millionaires in winter, but remains up 
North conscientiously on the job,”’ says Charles Hopper, of 1620 Race Street, Cincinnati, 
Ohio. Thus Hopper, in announcing the birth of triplets, announces at the same time a 
cheerful outlook on life. His three latest daughters, who were just a week old when the 
photograph was taken, are here shown in the arms of their grandmother, Mrs. Elizabeth 
Koch. ‘The Hopper home is no strange place to the stork, who has made seven previous 
visits. This is the first time he has ever been so generous in any one call, however, all of 
the other children having been born singly. Photograph from Paul Thompson. (Fig. 2.)
