P lan D e fin ite Program
W ith the approach ofj
Easter and the rabbit and
baby chick tradition that
accompanies it, the Ore
gon Humane society is
redoubling its vigilance to
prevent Illegal shipment
of baby chicks for dis
play and sale for East
er celebration purposes.
Up to a 'few years 'ago
it was customary to dis
play cute baby chicks in
store windows for a few
days before Easter and
fond parents would buy
one or two of the little
peelers and carry them
home to their flat or
apartment to impress the
children w ith the charm
of the great religious
festival.
O rdinarily
the
baby
chick would be petted to
death on the first day or
starved to death on the
third day when the new
ness had worn off, and
almost without fall the
ultim ate
destination of
the baby chick which bad
