VETERANS WILL
RETIRE SUNDAY
Expert Cabinet Worker Halls
From Cumberland Valley;
Is Known Here

One of four veterans of the Pennsy
who will retire from service on July
1 is George Washington Cramer, a
cabinetmaker. He is a former resi-
dent of Middle Spring, Cumberland
county, near Shippensburg. Mr..
Cramer is frequent visitor here.
where he has relatives. He is an ex-
pert craftsman in inlaid work.
Mr.. Cramer worked in the Pennsy
shops at Altoona for thirty-six years.
He was born May 13, 1850. He en-
tered the Pennsy service on Febru-
AIRY 13, 1880, at Altoona in the glue
room of the cabinet shop under Fore
man John Burley. He remained in
this department up until it was moved
TO NO. l planning mill two years ago.
IN Poor Health
During February of this year Mr..
Cramer was taken i'll with pneu-
monia and. owing to i'll health. has
been compelled to relinquish his du-
ties. The veteran is an expert crafts
man on inlaid woodwork, he having
formerly done most of the finer work
on the wooden-style passenger cars
put out by the Pennsy. Mr.. Cramer
has at his home many specimens of
his handfwork in the form of boxes,
stands, bookcases and other articles.
One box contains between 10000 and
$4,000 separate pieces of different
colored wood, some fifteen kinds of
natural wood being used in the con-
struction of the box.
The veteran was twice injured
while in the employ of the Pennsy.
In 1882 he had his left wrist badly
cut with a chisel and in 1913 his right
hand and fingers were crippled when
the members were caught in a wood
shaper.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cramer are planning
to make their future home in Tyrone.
Other shopmen who will retire. are:
John B. Keller, William X. Hetrick
and William Fl. Stewart
