DEVIEW NEWS
Our friend, Russel Melton,
went off on his vacation last
week, no one seemed to know
where he wras until hp arrived
home safely the next day.
Ed Cook has a hen “settin”
under the house and don’t
know what to do about it. We
would suggest, as the most '
practical means of extracting
her therefrom, that he tip a
grain of corn to one end of a ]
string and let her swallow the 1
corn. That done, grasp the 1
string firmly with both hands :
pnd draw her gently forth.
Have any of the many readers ;
of The Home News a sugges- J
tion? Probably the A. O. A. I
man of the Gazettp could sug- l
gest a better plan. <
