Dear list!

I would like to calculate "chisq.test" on simple data set with 70 observations, but the output is ''Warning message:''

Warning message:
In chisq.test(tabele) : Chi-squared approximation may be incorrect


Here is an example:

tabele <- matrix(c(11, 3, 3, 18, 3, 6, 5, 21), ncol = 4, byrow = TRUE)
        dimnames(tabela) <- list(
        "SEX" = c("M","F"),
        "HAIR" = c("Brown", "Black", "Red", "Blonde"))
        addmargins(tabele)
        prop.table(tabele)
        chisq.test(tabele)
Please, give me an advice / suggestion / recommendation.

Read any introductory stats book regarding  small cell sizes:

     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,]   11    3    3    5
[2,]    3   18    6   21
