WIGART HAS ACCIDENT

On the way to Trenton last Sat-
urday night Harry Wigart, our
Production Manager, was thrown
from monk" McLoughlin's car and
badly bruised.
About HOO on Saturday even
ing, Harry Wigart and monk"
started for Trenton in search of
food. The supply of water in Nc
Loughlin's Ford was evidently rath-
er low and when they had gone
at lively clip for several miles
the fiivver boiled over violently, as
Fords will, completely covering the.
windshield and sending heavy
spray of alcohol through the floor
boards. Harry, who was unusued to
the ways of Fords, thought some
sort of an explosion had occurred
and opened the door to look out. He
was thrown from the car and pin
ned between it and the fence. First
aid treatment was received from
Titusville doctor and Harry is now
resting comfortably in his room at
the Belmont.

ANNUAL DEBATE
ON NIGHT OF
MARCH 10TH

It is only matter of about three
weeks until the big debate will be
upon us. Big debates, we should say,
for this year, Lambertville and
Flemingten. for some unknown rea-
son, will depart from the now well
established Gu 5tom of holding an an
nual meeting in the Pennington au-
ditorium, and as substitute there
will be two debates in both Fleming
ton and in Lambertville on the same
night. There has been considerable
discussion about this innovation
which has taken the place of Gus
tom dear to the hearts of so many
Lambertvillians", but no matter
how little we like it, let's go out
and root for old l.. H. S., and break
the old jinx that for the last five
years has been waiting at every
turn for the Lambertville contingent.
By the time this is read, the
teams who will represent L. H. S.
both at home and at the county-seat
will have been made public, but at
the time of going to press COM
plete decision had not been reached.
Meanwhile, the debaters have not
been idle. Several trips to the Tren-
ton Libraries have been made, and
he "would-bes" have been digest
ing all the knowledge possible. Dur
ing one of these trips Mr.. Hoppock
was asked by an attendant if there
was any teacher in charge of the
crowd!
Let us again folks, go out and
root for Lambertville! Last year a
member of the Class of "a was
heard to say that, in his belief, if
Lambertville did not win the debate,
that there would never be another
debate with Pennington. The night
of the debate came, Lambertville
lost, we were almost tempted to
say "as usual, but this year the
debating season rolled around and
Lambertville, much the same as of
old, began to prepare for the debate
with Pennington. That Senior had
not reckoned with the undying
Lambertville spirit which has car
ried her through defeat and victory
alike. Pennington will be going into
this debate with a great deal of
confidence in her ability to wipe the
floor with Lambertville, and that is
one of the reasons why Lambert
vile is going to win this debate.
When any team gains too much con-
fidence in its record, or in it's per-
sonal merits, there is bound to be a
flaw somewhere in its makeup.
Year after year we hand Fleming
ton good old-fashionsd licking in
football, track, and baseball. Eacf,
year, however, debating places a
black mark on an otherwise per-
fectly good record. Let's make 1926

PYORRHEA BUCKS AGAIN

Johnnie" Hutchinson's famous
Ford, Pyorrhea, is in again. On last
Friday night Johnnie" made an
excursion to one of Trenton's SUBJ
urbs for some purpose or other in
spite of a rapidly falling tempera-
ture. When he came out at HOO
to return to Lambertville, he dis
covered that the motor was solid
chunk of metal not to be moved
by mortal man.
After laboring with it for four
hours he finally abandoned the eff
fort and left Pyorrhea where it was
until morning, when he discovered
that all the hot water poured over
it the night before to get it start
ed had given the whole motor an
icy casing.
A local garage man was called
who towed it to his place of bus
mess where it was discovered that
aside from the fact that the radia-
tor, which is new one, had burst
the cylinder head cracked, and the
cylinder block also, very little DAM
age had been done.

John d. Hutchinson is one of our
most philantropic gentlemen. Some
one, whose identity we refuse tc
divulge, passed him on the way
home from Trenton last Monday
night. Pyorrhea, his faithful Ford
was sitting by the roadside out OF
water. Campbell Ross, his passen,
ger. was sitting inside comfortably
wrapped up in rugs and blankets
while John was measuring the dis
lance from the Ford to the edge OF
the canal with a small tin can.

MAIN DRIVE SHAFT BROKEN

The factory was closed down on
Monday because of a break in the
main drive shaft between the No, 2
calendar and its mill.
Just exactly what happened to
snap the shaft which is of steel,
inches in diameter, after 20 years
of faithful service is hard to tell,
but snap it did and it took the
combined efforts of Mr.. Pheasey's
crew all day Saturday and Sunday
to get things running again.

If you had attended this school
about seventeen years ago, you no
doubt would have noticed one morn
ing new leather-covered Bible be-
ing read. Well, seventeen long years
have passed and the Bible has pass
ed thru many hands and has met
with i'll treatment many times.
Teachers, many of them, have read
its contents to their classes and it
has survived all this wear. To-day,
the eighteenth of February, nine
teen twenty-five, the Bible was found
by the Editor, resting after its sew
enteen years of service. in a book
rack in Home Room At.
Members of the Alumni Associa-
ton have long sought to find this
old relic and have not succeeded.
But now that it has appeared, let
us reverently lay it aside to COM
memorate past years, and depart
ed school friends.
With the Bible, a chair that has
held teachers and principals for
many years should be preserved To-
day it is used in one of the class
rooms, and we venture to say, not
in very good use, at least not the
use it deserves. Now that the Bible
is in the possession of a member Of
the faculty, let us save the chair. 1t
will be noticed by its aroon leather
cushion ard its quaint arms and
woodwork.
These objects of interest should
be highly - and preserved
with the greatest of care. A much
better fate than to befall these old
relics. It is advised, that the school
or an organization in the school,
seek to set aside this book and chair
in memory of the one who used them
first and most the one who made
Lambertville tradition, the one
whose life and work were an in
spiration to all who studied under
her direction-Miss Annie F. Stout.

REV. DUNLAP IS
 IN SOUND CITY

Rev. R. V. B. Dunlap came south on the steamship Yukon, says the the Alaska Weekly, and is in Seattle, for the purpose of perfecting plans for the new building to be construct ed for the Jesse Lee Home near Sew ard. It is understood the building will cost about $100,000 and will be of the stucco type. The site favored by Rev. Dunlap is at Woodrow, on the government railroad at Lake Kenai,' a scenic spot adapted for a Home of this sort. The buildings and grounds will probably cover about five acres.
 The Jesse Lee Home has long been located in Unalaska, but since de structive fire laid waste most of the buildings it was deemed advisable to remove the Home to a point where transportation facilities are better"

 MT. Goddard states that his charges are ill good condition and will reach their destination in good shape. A herd of deer placed on Kodiak island several years ago, were destroyed by the eruption of Katmai, although reaching good proportions before the ash covered the vegetation.

POMP AND CEREMONY OF
 OLD FRANCE IN FILM

One of the big screen events of the year will take place tonight when "Un- der the Red Robe" is shown at the Liberty Thearte. It will be repeat ed again tomorrow night for those who miss it this evening.
 Under the Red Robe" has all the the public wants. Taken from Stan ley Weyman's famous masterpiece of the same name, it reflects not only wonderful medieval romance but all the pomp and ceremony, the plotting and intrigue and the gorgeous spIen- dor of the period of Cardinal Riche- lieu. The picture was nine months in the making and it's production en- tailed cost of S1,5OO00O. Three studios were used and one of the big gest sets ever constructed in the East was built. This set, a replica of the Louvre when it was used as fort ress in the early part of the seven teenth century represents the palace of King Louis XIII.
 To interpret the famous characters of history in the story the Cosmopoli- tan Corporation assembled a brilliant cast of players on stage and screen. Robert E. Mantell, John Charles Thom- as and Alma Rubens appear in the fea- ture roles. MT. Mantell has the role of Cardinal Richelieu, a character he impersonated on the speaking stage. MT. Thomas is the heroic lover, Gil de Berault, and Miss Rubens plays Renee. Others in an especially not able company are Genevieve Hamper. William H. Powell, Rose Coghlan, Ian MacLaren, Mary McLaren, Otto Kru- ger, Evelyn GosneIl, Gustav von Seyf- fertitz, Sydney Herbert, Charles Jud- els, Martin Faust, Arthur Houseman and Andrew Dillon.
