Rishel’s cheerful, often humorous
outlook on life has made her

time among Farm Women. She

Black.
Farm Women gatherings

programs, and the Spring Rally

For Annual Spring Roily
afternoon session was no ex
ception. The large group erupted
with laughter when a perky,
yellow-feathered chicken danced
onto the stage.
The cheery chicken alias local
entertainer Trudy Edleblute
was on hand to pay lighthearted
tribute to former state Farm
Women president Martee Mentzer.
A former Cumberland County
poultry producer, Mrs. Mentzer
started a tradition when, in 1963,

during a state Farm Women
meeting. Her reputation ever since
for chicken jokes has in turn
resulted in a houseful of chicken
“collectibles.” After clucking,
scratching and “laying” several
eggs on a nest on stage, the Spring
Rally chicken visitor presented
Mrs. Mentzer with a gilded egg for
her collection.
Headlining the afternoon session
was musical soloist Christopher
Quigley.
