WHICH CAME FIRST, THE CHICKEN OR THE EGG?

Which Came First, The Chicken or the Egg? -    Mrs. J.G. Coleman went out to her coop to gather some eggs for a scrumptious Sunday breakfast.  She took what she thought were some  nice fresh ones, which in fact had been lying under a laying hen for some three weeks.

When Mrs. Coleman commenced to cook, she accidentally forgot and left one of the eggs on her sideboard.    Throughout the afternoon and Saturday, the Coleman family became concerned over the peeping of a lost biddy somewhere in or under the house.  Thorough searches revealed nothing.  That is until someone wandered into the dining room and found the new born chick wallowing out of its shell and clucking it's heart out.  (Macon Telegraph, June 17, 1920)
