LOONEY,s CHAPEL.
Special to the News.

Seeing nothing in our grand old val
ley paper from this place we will try |
TO give few remarks about the Owl of
Hicks Chapel We see from reading
the items that he dSshes up and down
the valley like an old fas hioned sash
saw and that he is the most prominent
newspaper correspondent living at
Hicks Chapel. lie rides the swiftest |
horse that ever went forth TO battle viz.
a bicycle. He stated in one Of his North |
Hicks Chapel letters that Owl was dead |
but we are slow to believe it because !
be went too far north to die OF heat
When he Reached, the north pole at |
Hicks Chapel he did not stop there.
He Travelled further on re ching Hirk
DRY GEovu and wrote letter from there,
and signed himself Free Bird" lie |
may think himself free bird but ! |
think | can get close enough to make |
IN set tail feather, We wish to call |
"Owls" attention to his mistake in his |
Hickory Grove letter about the rocks
giving out. We%ish to inform "Owl" |
that they were not exhausted notwith-
standing certain man fed from the |
battle field with two in hand. What is
the matter with you anyway You
headed one of your articles Hickory
Grove and in it you made notes of the
people from Sulphur Spring to New
Hope. What made you so newsyP We
guess you are an expert bicyclist and
you took notes as you passed through
the colony of the hermits We are not
a writer of history but we can some
times give a few points bearing on such
correspondents, If this is not enough
for "Owl" we may go owl hunting again
in the near future as we are very fond
of the sport. Bob Ridge and Willie
Hicks say there is one roosting in the
roof of Hicks Chapel and that it goes in
at a hole in in the ventilator. Saman-
tina, don't get frightened at the owl.
He will not catch your little cats. We
will close our remarks on the owl SO as
to give him a chance to put few tope-
does under our vessel.
