Some Name.

A little colored girl, a newcomer in Sunday school, gave her name to the teacher as "Fertilizer Johnson." Later the teacher asked the child’s mother if that was right. “Yes, ma’am, dat’s her name," said the fond parent. “You see, she was named fer me and her father. Her father am Ferdinand and my name is Liza. So we named her Fertilizer.”
