4 FRIENDLY WARNING
TO YOUNG CHICKENS

Editor Record:
WIN you not kindly print warning
to the Canaan City chickens? We o.
serve on the streets OF Canon City
several hundred Methodist preachers.
The danger that threatens the hen
house during a NJ E. conference Is
we'll known to all the feathered tribe.
But chickens are like people-they
profit little by fatherly advisor Dy
the experience of others They read
little and remember less. The expert
ences Of last season are as distant in
the memories of chicken as are the
political affairs Of the Roman empire
to the modern statesmen.
So the chickens should be warned
again
II We were a chicken we would
duck-hide outlay low-disappear
for the present at least. We wouldn't
come out from under cover until the
last pIous preacher had left town
Friday and Saturday will be partic-
ulariy fatal days for young pullets
and roosters. Sunday Is observed as q
feast day. and many tender hearted
foul will be sacrificed on the alter Of
goodfellowship. 1t will require sew
eral hundred promising young birds
to supply the sunday dinners for the
Methodist ministers alone.
In former years 1t was only the yell
low legged varietie Of chickens that
were In danger during conference
bu; We understand that the younger
generation OF preachers are not par
ilcular about variety-anything Jus;
so it Is a chicken-fried chicken. roast
chicken. or chicken pie for Sunday
dinner.
So cur advise to the tribe Of chick
ems ls--to hike-hide out in the brush
unrsf next week. :.
Yours respectively.
