MAY Not Be Walk-oyer

But--we will have our buts-it is our
humble opinion that the days conflict
at Franklin Field will not be the de-
pressing walk-oyer that comparative
scores against the Michigan team
would seem to indicate. We base this
upon the assumption that Penn is Of.
fensively defective and, paradoxicsl
enough, does not compare with the
Wolverines as a scoring machine, even
though defeating the Yostian host. In
other words, against a weak team
Michigan would be apt to turn in the
higher score.

CABBAGE KILLS
POPULARITY

Some great mems popularity has
been lost on small turns of the wheel
of fortune, but Theron Frank Tabor,
for two years supervising principal
of the Lambertville public schools,
has the unique distinction of losing
his on account of head of cabbage.
1t seems that Mr.. Tabor, who has
long regarded the local merchants,
the railroads, and most anybody else
with goods to sell, as a band con-
spring to rob him, rushed into the
office of Walter E. Edge, governor
of New Jersey, and stated that the
LambertvilIe merchants were MAX
ing 600 per cent profit, or some
thing to that effect. Anyway, the
Governor gave the tale publicity and
honest business men were branded
as food pirates.
Fifteen minutes after the news
reached Lambertville stock in the
Tabor-Edge combination went to alb
solute zero. Even Mr.. Tabor's own
figures disprove the 900 per cent
dope" He stated that he purchas-
ed a six pound head of cabbage for
eight cents, in New Brunswick, and
that it would have cost thirty cents,
locally, or 800 per cent higher! As
a matter of fact, local dealers were
paying from three to four cents per
pound for. very high grade of cab
bage and retailing it one cent higher.

Has Exemption Paper.

John H, Bair, now residing at the
home of his son, Charles W. Bair, in
Lambertville, but formerly a bakery
owner in New Hope, shows with
much interest his exemption papers
from the Civil War. Mr.. Bair was
then living in Lebanon county, Penn
syIvania, and was drafted in 1863.
The examining physicians refused to
pass him, setting forth in the certif-
icate that his system was too weak
to stand the work. He was theh25
years of age, and 81 years have
passed, but he still lives and hasn't
so many gray hairs.
While Mr.. Bair does not, of
course, expect to live another Sd
years with weak system" he has
good prospects'of reaching 80, judg-
ing by his. present activity and clear
ness of mind.
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1917-07-26

That profit had to cover all shrink
age and losses, too.
Mr.. Tabor willingly accepted the
liberal salary given him by the local
board of education, and whether it
was 600 per cent too high is a ques-
ton that Mr.. Tabor seems compe-
tent to decide. Anyway, he is going
to South River, where his career will
be watched with much interest by
the Lambertville merchants. New
Brunswick will be close enough by
to save him from robbery, anyway.
None of Mr.. Tabor's predecessors
ever seem to have been Jesse-James'd
locally.
