''CHICKEN HOUSES"
ARE BIG NUISANCE
FARMERS ON MAYSON AND
TURNER FERRY ROAD IN
FULTON TIRE OF THEM.

ATLANTA.-Farmers residing on
the Mayson and Turner ferry road in
this county are getting tired of the fun,
frivolity and frolic of automobile JOY
riders who patronize the chicken hous-
es strung along that thoroughfare and
have petitioned Judge HUMPHREYS, of
Fulton superior court, to abate them
as nuisance.
Their Allegations.
They allege that the patrons of these
establishments are in the habit of rid
ing up and down the road at all hours
OF the night in an intoxicated condi-
ton, of whooping, shouting, dancing
and sometimes fighting around the
chicken houses, of engaging in prac
tees of an improper and immoral ma
ture which cannot be set out in de-
tail in the prayer of your petitioners, J"
and of generally demoralizing the COM
munity to the detriment of property
values and the disturbance of the
peace.
A chicken house as exemplihed III
Fulton county is a shanty built of
boards on the edge of the road, with
a kerosene oil kitchen in the rear, a
dozen or SO chickens kept in coop,
pan of lard in which to fry them,
a supply of more or less stale light
rolls in a bread box and a folding
front counter over which the suppers
are served in heavyweight crockery
with pewter knives and forks.
Little Drink
The chicken houses are patronized
by persons who seem to derive the
keenest delight from eating this sort
of food. There is usually little grove
of trees with carpet of grass ada
cent to the chicken house, where
moonlight riders may retire in some
degree of privacy to gnaw the meat
from the bones of their chicken and
bite off pieces of their bread. If per-
chance a party of riders bring along
their own liquor with which to wash
down their chicken and bread why
should the chicken house proprietor
interfere with their pleasure?
