A hen is not supposed to have
Much common sense or tact. Yet every time she lays an egg She cackles forth the fact.
A rooster hasn't got a lot
Of intellect to show,
But none the less most roosters have
Enough good sense to crow.
The busy little bees they buzz, Bulls bellow and cows moo,
The watch dog barks, the `gander
quacks,
And doves and pigeons coo.
But man, the greatest masterpiece
That nature could devise,
Will often stop and hesitate
Before he'll advertise.
Don't Delay! Phone 30251
