Friday, March 1, 1963 THE NEW BERN MIRROR, NEW BERN, N. C. Page Three Swigging milk appeals to most babies, but Tommy and Diane Best have learned the hard way that their three month old son. Tommy, Jr., wants no part of it. He crams baby food, especially the vegetables, every time the opportunity presents itself. As a matter of fact, instead of a bottle in the wee small hours, he Insists on a dish of some thing slightly more solid. Diane says the doctor has ex plained that little Tommy probably got disgusted with bottles a few weeks ago because of a cold. “He couldn’t breathe and nurse the bottle at the same time,” Diane told us, “so he steadfastly refused it.” When last we checked, the youngster was yielding to the extent that he will drink orange juice, but as far as he is con cerned there is no need to milk a cow for his benefit. Don’t tell this to any of the cows you happen to know. It might give them an inferiority complex. Obviously, the Best Infant isn’t suffering overly much as a result of his whim, He weighs seven teen pounds, and is growing larger by the minute. Tommy, Sr., has nicknamed him “Horse” for “Horse” Cartwright, who is featured in the TV western-- “Bonanza.” Big Tommy insists that his son has looked exactly like Horse ever since his birth on November 22. The child’s mother, and his two slsters--Dennle and Susan-- aren’t too keen about the com parison, but the nickname is apt to stick long after “Bananza” has run its course. Oddly, perhaps, Dennle and Susan were hoping the Stork would bring a third girl to the Best household, but they decided to keep the little boy who showed up. To say the least, that simplified matters somewhat for Tommy and Diane. 1918-“45 Yrs. Service—1963 John R. Taylor or John R.
