RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-01-2012 07:30 PM This one should be fairly easy. Whose memoirs did Tarbell ghostwrite? Best Rob RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - RJNorton - 10-02-2012 04:33 AM The previously mentioned S.S. McClure? RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-02-2012 07:45 AM Sorry Roger, but it wasn't McClure. Best Rob RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-02-2012 09:26 AM First clue. It was a man. Best Rob RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-02-2012 01:13 PM Second clue. The Yazoo Bender. Best Rob RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - RJNorton - 10-02-2012 01:26 PM Charles A. Dana? RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-02-2012 05:56 PM Correct Roger! It was Dana. Good job. RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-06-2012 09:15 AM This trivia question will require research in Tarbell's papers for the answer. From 1916 to 1923, Tarbell was contracted with various lyceum groups to give talks around the country. Most of her talks centered around labor relations and World War I, although she did offer talks about Lincoln. There were at least two different lectures she presented. Name their titles. There will be no clues. Best Rob RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - RJNorton - 10-06-2012 02:29 PM (10-06-2012 09:15 AM)Rob Wick Wrote: There will be no clues. Does that include tips? RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-06-2012 02:33 PM Quote:Does that include tips? I guess that would depend on the tip. I can tell you the answer will not be found in her Lincoln-related correspondence. Best Rob RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - RJNorton - 10-07-2012 04:46 AM Was either one of them titled "The Golden Rule in Business?" or "The Cause of Unemployment?" RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-07-2012 07:10 AM Sorry Roger, no. I will say that Lincoln was in the title of both (OK, maybe one clue). Best Rob RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-08-2012 10:13 AM Well, I guess I'm going to have to break down and give another clue. If you look at Tarbell's papers by subject, go to the Affiliated Lyceum Bureau. The answer, while still hard to find, will be there. Best Rob RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - RJNorton - 10-08-2012 12:00 PM Rob, can you say if I am on the right (or wrong) track? RE: Tough Tarbell Trivia - Rob Wick - 10-08-2012 12:03 PM Yes, Roger, that is one. Best Rob |
