The pullets fed the roosters to a meal of high pro- tein mash followed by some fancy steppin'. They flew the coop and had a rousing good time at their senior ditch day. The chickens fluffed their feathers and showed them- selves off by a play, The Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court which they crowed about. Thus fattened, off they went to the market. 1 af' it ' 1 lop I Norh,-ng secrjzrft WHIP mwnswcs comes bony, fr-r,e key President e for ,hqsufef A better personality is hard to find.

One evening these Chihuahuas enioyed a Spanish dinner and a movie. For sport they went skating and swimming. Much barking was heard at the fall CSF Conference held in East Bakersfield. They entered into the Yuletide spirit by bringing Christmas cheer to a needy family. The fair would not be the same without the ol' dogs prowling around.
