Dr. Adam A. Kluttz, coming back from Pinehurst last week in his Hudson sedan, made a detour by Goldsboro in order to take aboard 35 Rhode Island Red newly-hatched chicks which his nephew, John Crawford, had offered him. Carefully watched all the way to Chapel Hill by the Doctor and Mrs. Kluttz, and saved from jolting, they got here in good health. Their new owner was much pleased with them and his fondness took the form of high and indiscreet feeding. They wasted away, and for a week Dr. Kluttz held several funerals each day. Finally all the 35 had passed on.
