The Merchant and
4La EarrAaa

the Farmer
When a merchant gets a stock of
goods and puts them on
the shelf,
The first idea that comes to him
is how to protect himself.
He figures first his freight bills
and then his taxes too,
His labor and his losses, and
every bill that's due.
He calculates a profit, d~eprecia-
ton, rent,
And every item figured right
down to the smallest cent
He puts his cost price on his
goods, his system slyly works,
He uses hen tracks here and
there, and sometimes rooster
marks.
And what the farmer gets for
products raised don't pay the
interest bill,
He loads his stuff upon his truck
and travels DER the hill.

 MYTHICAL TITLE
Putnam Bulldogs Play Around Hamilton of Southbridge to
 1S-7 Score

The Putnam Bulldogs continued their rough and merry way Co the mythical New England title last Sun day by tramping the Hamilton Club in Southbridge with an lS-7 score. The orange jerseyed Bay Staters, who plaved a bloody scoreless tie with Putnam last year were outciasseu from the start competing but one hrst down to 9 by the Bulldogs.
 A Cody 10 Darrieili pass in the first period on Southbridge twenty yard line brought the first Putnam score following a straight advance up the field on line plays. farqunar missed the point on an attempted KICK.
 Wheaton tallied again in the sec ond period on a wide end run that covered a good thirty-iiye yards. This followed a sensational blocked punt by Darrieili. who turned in a splendid game at right wing.
 Blair. Hamilton center, snared one Of Cody's heaves in the third period when 1t looked as though Putnam would score and travelled eighty yards behind perfect interference Tor touchdown. Egan drop-kieked the point.
 On the first play after an exchange of punts in the closing minutes, Mike Hannifan crack Bulldog quarteroaek, effected the most sensational play oi the day in reeling of 92-yard dash for a score from scrimmage. The game ended with Putnam in posses sion of the pigskin on the Hamilton 25-yard strip.
 Considerable credit can go to the local forward wall with Simonzi, Du- mas. Bugbee, Elliot, Daigle, Jerry Cristoforo and Valentine furnishing some real muscie-bound defense work. The fact that the Massachusetts club was unable to advance on line plays speaks well for the effectiveness of
