Essay About Hens.

A child of nine in Standard III OF
Sheffield school wrote the following
essay on Hens" says the London Tel
egraph: Hens are treble (terrible)
things in a garden. They do not chew
their food they swallow it holI. Hens
eat bits of pot and then the egg shells
are made from these. They lay a lot
of eggs if you are ducky. Some peo-
pie put pot eggs in the hens nest TO
tvs Ctice) them to lay. When hens
start eating the eggs, the people put
mustard in an eggs shell. Hens have
cloven feet and scarly (scaly) legs.
One kind of hens are called cockerils."
