RALLY DAY AT WESLEY.

Rally Day was observed in Wesley
NJ E. Church on Sunday last in all
departments. 1t was the most sue
cessful Rally Day ever held in the
church. The morning service was de-
voted to the old people. The oldest
person present was sc years of age,
and there were score of persons
present whose age was above the pro-
verbal three score and ten. Several
of the old people gave their testimony
to the saving power and keeping
grace of Jesus Christ through many
years of Christian life. Pastor Wells
spoke to the children present for five
minutes about the flags Of our nation
and the Protestant church. He
preached a special sermon to the old
people from Ps. 90: IA, "They shall
still bring fruit in old age"
The class meeting preceding the
morning service was well attended by
the old people. Rev. Samuel Ship, rs
years old, was a soldier in the Eng
lish army in the Crimean war. The
present Balkan war with Turkey caus-
ed the pastor to speak of the former
war with the Turks in which Mr. Ship
fought. The old people were brought
to the service in automobiles, through
the kindness ef Ex-Mayor w. l. Gar

charge of the Sunday School. The
attendance was over 250; all the de-
partments being represented, from
the Cradle Roll to the Home Depart
ment, and each department and class
had a place on the program. The ex-
ercises consisted of Scripture recita-
tions by several classes, and the birth
day and class drills of the Cradle
Roll and Beginners and Primary chill
dren. A piano duet was rendered by
Misses Armenia Risley and Hannah
Rainear. Master Samuel Garrison
gave cornet solo. The address of
the afternoon was made by Prof.
Hartman, Supervisor Of the Public
Schools.
In the. evening the church was
crowded. Messrs. Rumford and Sny-
der, of Somers Point. sang two selec-
tions. The Choir led spirited song
service, and Pastor Wells preached to
the young people from Ps. 119: 9,
"Wherewith shall young man
cleanse his way? By taking heed
thereto according to thy word"
The church was tastefully decorated
with American and Protestant
church flags, and fine display of
autumn fruits, vegetables and flow
ers. Great credit is due the decorat-
ing committee for their splendid work.

MAGNIFICENT DAHLIA DISPLAY.

Unquestionably the handsomest dis
play ever seen in Pleasantville was
the exhibit of superb dahlias at The
Weaver Store last week. They occu-
pied one of the huge display windows
and were the admiration of all who
passed by, even many automobile par
ties were attracted by them and stop
ped to look. They came from Ham
monton and were the product of the
well-known florist, J. Murray Bassett,
and were displayed by the local rep
resentative, Roy c. Adams. Mr.. Bas-
sett has paid particular attention to
the culture of dahlias and there is no
question that he has the cultivation
down to a fine science. Every color
and every blend Of colors imaginable
was there, even a solid green variety
being in the collection. Among the
prettiest and largest was a white
bloom which he has recently perfected
and with which he honored his hust-
ling and popular local agent by giving
it the name of "The Roy c. Adams" !"
On Saturday night the flowers were
distributed among the churches of the
town for decorating purposes and lat
er sent to cheer the homes of sick
persons.

CORNER STONE LAYING

The cornerstone of the new Salem
Methodist Episcopal Church will be
laid next Sunday afternoon, October
9th, at four o'clock. The services
will be in charge Of the Rev. S. M.
Nichols, Phi. D., District Superintend-
ent, and all the local pastors have
been invited to be present and assist
in the services.
The cornerstone is the gift of the
o. ]. Hammell Co., and is one of the
most magnificent in this part OF the
country. 1t weighs $50 pounds and
the inscription is of raised letters.
The receptacle which will contain the
various church documents, ETC., is
glass jar and is the gift Of Mr.. Claude
Lear. The use of glass jar is an
innovation, and is used with the
thought that there will be no chance
for rust or dampness to cause the
contents to become destroyed. When
metal case is used, it is generally
found that some moisture causes both
box and contents to become damaged.
The entire public is cordially invited
to be present and witness this inter-
esting and important event of laying
the cornerstone of another church,
The foundation walls have been laid
and portions of them are nearly up
to the required height for the first
story, and fairly good idea may be
obtained of the general appearance
when completed The Rev. George
B. Wight, D. d., formerly Commits
sioner Of Charities and Reforms, at
Trenton, has been invited to be pres
ent and will preach at the evening
service. If the day is stormy, the
service will be held in the church at
the same hour.

FOUND UNCONSCIOUS IN ROAD.

Enoch Martin, of Pleasantville, was
found unconscious on the Mays Land
ing road, just outside Of Pleasant
vile, Tuesday afternoon, apparently
the victim of an automobile. He was
taken to the Atlantic City Hospital
in a serious condition from internal
injuries. An air of mystery sur
rounds the entire accident. AS far
as can be ascertained woman was a
witness to the affair, but it has been
impossible to locate her. G. M. Hays
Deemer, a druggist of Atlantic City,
found Martin on the road. The man
was lying to one side and apparently
had been struck and run over, either
by an automobile or a motor cycle.

A PUBLIC FOUNTAIN

the erection of a Public Drinking
Fountain for Man and Beast, to be
located at some central place which is
to be decided upon by the Borough
Council.
The proposed Fountain is to cost
about five hundred dollars, and when
completed and in operation will fill a
long time need and also be a lasting
monument to the efforts of the young
people and the generosity Of the citi-
zens of Pleasantville. The water is
to be supplied by the Pleasantville
Water Co. without charge, so there
will be no additional expense attached
to the Fountain when once erected

PLEASANTVILLE DEFEATS
RIDDLE AT FOOTBALL.

Pleasantville's football game last
Saturday afternoon was indeed an
immensely interesting game from ev-
cry standpoint. The day was an ideal
one and the attendance was quite
large, and most of the spectators were
surprised at the showing made by our
home team. Although the Pleasant
vile team was outweighed fully fif-
teen pounds to the man, they dis
played their superior teamwork by
playing all around the Riddle team
during the first half. Pleasantville's
forward passes were used to excellent
advantage for gains, and the brilliant
manner of their execution, combined
with the line plays and fine inter
ferance, was the means of Pleasant
ville's having no difficulty in scoring
their first touchdown. The home
team had choice of goal and chose
the north end, and after the first II
minutes Of play touchdown was
made by Quarterback Stephenson,
who failed at kicking goal. Score
Pleasantville 6, Riddle 0.
The third and fourth quarters were
played on the defensive and the Rid
die team took brace and tried by
their weight to smash the frail line
of Pleasantville, but through the
work of both ends-Dougherty and
Zipp1er-they were compelled to punt
for safety after four downs. The
work Of Halfbacks Adams, Clark and
Wootton was commendable football.
Fullback Wootton, receiving injuries
in the third quarter, was taken out
and Coke substituted in his place.
