CHICKEN BOSS BUSTERS
Rotary Members in Protest To
Have Own Anti-Methodist Feed

Verify, the way of the transgressor
is hard. In this case the bread which
was not cast upon the waters by the
Methodist Rotar.ans is to return ten
fold. This in contravention of the
fact that the Bible makes no mention
of what shall come to those who give
promise of wonderful chicken din
ners a la Southland and then fail to
deliver the fowl part thereof.
The invitation which appears in this
story is the cry of certain vengeful
ones. named, who attended the Ro-
ts.ry dinner at the First Methodist
church Friday night with teeth all
set for chewing of succulent chicken.
1t seems tina there was no chicken.
Ano now just to show that there
are such things as chickens in the
world, fowls which, can be prepared
in toothsome way for the delecta-
ton of Rotarians. the disgruntled and
disappointed ones have taken on them
selves the providing of the chickens
which were not at the last Rotary
party.
The specially prepared invitation
follows.
