He Made Them
A Speech All Right
At the first caucus last Friday
night at the Commercial Club
mom. before the meeting was
called to order, everyone enter­
ing the room was called ujton for
a speech. It was done as a
"josh” and no one came through
until J. H. Cook entered, and he
made good. He was called upon
for a sjteech and gave them one
that lasted for several minutes
and kept the crowd in roars of
laughter. It sure was a scream.
Mother Hubbard« and Bon­
nets Encourage These
Moulting Hens
A dispatch says: Rather than
see her chickens, which had
moulted late in the season, suffer
from the cold, Mrs. E. Stoker,
of Colorado City. Colo., has made
neatly fitting coats, which but­
ton under the wings, and has
also supplied the chickens with
soft flannel caps tastily fastened
with daintily colored ribbons that
tie under the beaks of the fowls.
The chickens strut about
apparently comfortable, and ap­
parently proud of their clothes.
Mrs. Stoker said today that the
hens, just to show their grati­
tude. are laying eggs in their
full capacity every day.
The Redmond Rod and Gun
Club will hold an afternoon shoot
on their grounds today, Thanks­
giving. All those who are inter­
ested in this class of sport are
invited to be present
