Unkown

It took Millie Baker’s nana almost two years of saving on her maid’s salary, but she was finally able to buy that microscope in the window at the drugstore for a Christmas gift. When Hiram asked what that little girl was going to do with a microscope, Nana said, “she’s goin’ to college, mor’n your lunkhead son is gonna do!” Millie went on to be the first girl to win the county science fair, was valedictorian of the high school, and earned a doctorate in biochemistry. Hiram’s son Jesse is still running the drugstore.
