Jasper County Democrat, Volume 23, Number 38, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 7 August 1920 — BIDDY COMES TO BAND CONCERT [ARTICLE]

BIDDY COMES TO BAND CONCERT

A farmer residing out about seven miles from town drove his family in Wednesday evening to the band concert in his flivver and parked the car in front of Warner Bros, store. Perhaps a half hour later someone in crossing the street noticed a Plymouth Rock hen on the top of the car. The preßence of biddy at such an unhenly hour and during so much hilarity created a general shout of laughter, but the farmer gathered her in and cared for her inside the car until the family got ready to go home, otherwise some of Rensselaer’s greedy chicken-eaters might have relieved him of further care of the bird.
