Whitey was in the fertilized egg business. He had
several hundred young layers called pullets and
eight or ten roosters, whose job was to fertilize
the eggs. Whitey kept records and any rooster that
didn't perform went into the soup pot and was replaced.

That took an awful lot of Whitey's time so Whitey
got a set of tiny bells and attached them to his
roosters.

Each bell had a different tone so Whitey could
tell from a distance, which rooster was performing.

Now he could sit on the porch and fill out an
efficiency report simply by listening to the
bells.
Whitey's favorite rooster was old Brewster, a
very fine specimen he was, too. But on this
particular morning Whitey noticed old Brewster's
bell hadn't rung at all!
Whitey! went to investigate. The other roosters
were chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing. The
pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover.
BUT, to Whitey's amazement, Brewster had his
bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.
Whitey was so proud of Brewster, he entered him
in the county fair... and Brewster became an
overnight sensation among the judges.
The result...

The judges not only awarded Brewster the "No
Bell Piece Prize" but they also awarded him the
"Pulletsurprise" as well.
