"POOR AS JOBS TURKEY"
kansas City Starr

(Kansas City STAR
In this expression two widely sep
arated facts are brought together, as
the turkey, native fowl OF North
America, and surely unknown to the
habitation of poor Job. Job could not
have had a turkey, poor or otherwise.
The famous American bird was not
introduced in Europe until the early
rart of the sixteenth century. Jen-
nings, in his "Three Eggs of british
Birds" relates that he heard from an
Omahawa Indian the proverb, poor
as turkey in the summer" with the
explanation that at some seasons OF
the year their excessive wanderings
and scarcity of food often left turkeys
very thin. The poor turkey idea might
have originated in that way, and then
it was left to Judge Halliburton, the
author of Sam Slick" to popularize
the alleged fact that Jobs turkey had
but one feather in his TAIL and had to
lean against the fence to gobble.
