Talk:Ruth Cleveland

Avoiding Original Research
We may SUSPECT that the Baby Ruth candy bar was named after George Herman "Babe" Ruth, the baseball player, but Wikipedia is NOT the place for soapboxes. Please cite original, outside sources that make these assertions. Ryoung 122 00:59, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

 * In 1897, Cleveland received a pony and cart as a gift. Her obituary in the New York Times described one of her favorite pastimes as riding with her younger siblings in a pony cart.
