City Raises Teachers Pay

The Lambertville Board of Educa-
ton decided at Wednesday nights
meeting to add $500 per year to the
salary of each of the thirty teachers
in the public schools of this city, which
will amount to $4,000, or about SO
cents on each 500 of taxable proper
ty for 1921.
This increase is made conditional
upon the teachers signing up the
usual yearly contract, which it is ex-
pected they will do shortly. At least,
it is understood that practically all
the teachers will remain in the local
schools.
With the increase in pay the teach
ers here will receive minimum wage
of about $1,000 per year, the lowest
now being paid about $500 with four
months of 1920 to carry into the 1921
appropriation, the total increase in
taxes in 1921, due TOT the increased
salaries, will probably be about SOC.
on each $500, or 36c. for the year
1921 alone.

Fifty men, many of whom were
residents of Lambertville, were caught
in cockfght raid in the barn of Sam
uel Updyke, in West Amwell Town
ship, on Sunday and fined S25 each.
with the exception of Updyke, who

fighting cocks that had survived the
scrap. Several bottles of wiskey
were also taken.
Justice of the Peace George w.
Durham, of Pennington, imposed the
fines, and collected all of them too,
amounting to 1925. Some of the
spectators had difficulty in raising the
money, but when they found it was
a case of pay or go to Jail they sent
friends out after coin.

Railroad Strike Waning

Lambertville missed one train dur
ing the past weeks railroad strike.
in the passenger service, but there
were only few freights running. On
Wednesday morning the o'clock
train did not leave for Trenton. and
as consequence, the 4:40 P. M. train
from that city did not come either.
Some of the trains were off sched-
ule the early part of the week. On
Wednesday night it was freely pre-
dicted that no trains would run Thurs
day, but they ran on closer schedule
than at any time in the past three
years.
The trouble originated with some
freight brakemen in the West, and in
this section scattered members of the
crews would desert their posts, after.
which the other members would re-
fuse to run the trains.
Many volunteers offered their SER
vices, and on some branches of the
Reading each locomotive was manned
by two engineers, one running and the
other firing, which gave better SER
vice than when the regular firemen
were working, but necessarily cur
tailed the number of trains that
could be run.
All passenger trains have been run
ming in and out of New Hope on the
Reading Railway.
