vealed Rockefeller In a new light. He
was one of the gayest men on board,
was gallant to ladles, displayed great
handshaking abilities, made Jests,
talked volubly, played shuffleboard and
on one occasion gained the cheers of
the passengers.
On leaving the ship he gave all his
tips In bulk—875.
The following is a chronology of the

on deck for a while. In the afternoon
he played shuffleboard. It was the
first time he ever played and he en

Everybody laughed: so did
Rockefeller, who put the penny In his
pocket and thanked the boy, giving
him his card.
Cheers For Oil King-
