BABY NAMED FOR WILSON
Woodrow Wilson Sandler of New York is Son of Tammany Leader—Born On the Fourth.
Seagirt, N. J., July 6.—The first campaign boy to be named after Gov. Wilson is Woodrow Wilson Sandler of New York City.
The boy was born July 4, and is the son of Bernard H. Sandler, a New York lawyer and a prominent Tammany leader. In a letter to the governor, Mr. Sandler says:
"I have two daughters and I wanted a son. The boy was born on the Fourth of July, which was a distinction, but when I thought of that demonstration for Gov. Wilson at the convention when he was nominated I came to the conclusion the boy would be proud of the name when he grows older."
