King Tut Was A Hoo Hoo

That the finding of a black onyx cat in, the tomb of King Tut, proves that he was a member of Hoo H'oo, was the declaration of Ex-Snark of the ljniverse, W. A. Priddie of Beaumont. Texas. at the Texas Lumbermens' Convention, at Dallas.

Mr. Priddie said:

"ft is a fact that King Tutankhamen was a member of the Hoo-Hoo." "He had nine artificers to carve from black onyx the cat recently found in his tomb by Lord Carnorvan's explorations. President Harding is als'o a lfoo-l{oo, and we have appealed to him to robtain this onyx ,cbt to be placed in the great tomb of ex-snarks of the universe that is built at Crown Point, Ore., on the Columbia river. Here repose the mummified ex-snarks of the Universe as they retire from office. I am there, along with the others."
