BOYS FAR OUTNUMBER GIRLS IN LIST OF BIRTHS FILED IN PAST MONTH
According to the births recorded in the office of the county clerk during
the past month, the number of boys far outnumber the girls born.  Of the
number of children named, ten are girls while 21 are boys.  As there are six
births reported in which the child was not named, there is a possibility
that the percentage of boys will run even higher.

[Transcriber notes: Article near end was exceedingly difficult to read and
numbers were such black blobs, not guaranteed to be accurate in last third
of article---esp those indicated with ?.  Same with street numbers---so
sometimes listed only streets since numbers were indecipherable.
Possibility exists that names with e's or a's were interchanged, as well.]
