There was a great day in Zion M. E.
Church last Sunday. The pastor was
greeted with a large congregation in
the afternoon service, at which ser
vice he preached from the subject,

greatly appreciated by all present.
The evening services were of a pa
triotic nature, when there was a SER
vice flag unfurled in honor of the
young men that have left the Church
and Sabbath School to serve their
country. Thirteen of our young men
have gone from this community and
are doing their bit to make the world
safe for democracy. The address of
the evening was delivered by Lawyer
Joseph A. Corio, of Atlantic City, af-
ter which Coroner James, of Pleasant
vile, gave a stirring speech, and this
was followed by a few remarks by the
pastor. There was special singing by
the children, "How Betsy Ross Made
the Flag" and also a duet by the
Gordon Sisters. The services were
enjoyed by all present.
The services for the Sabbath are as
follows:
10 A. M, Class Meeting.
2 P. NJ, Sunday School.
8 P. NJ, Preaching by the Pastor.
Ills P. M, Epworth League.

At the evening service Rev. Louis

preach. Everyone is invited to all
services. If you have no Church
home, make Zion, the oldest church
in the community, your spiritual home.
Mrs. S. Y. Wilson has been elected
Superintendent of the Sabbath School.
1t is hoped that the parents of the
children of the community will see
that their children are sent to the
School. 1t is a duty you W to God
and yOur children.

Are Members of the Red Cross.

April 18th, 1918.
Editors Pleasantville Press:-
Seeing a piece in your Press in ref
erence to a woman refusing to give
10c per week or even sc for the Red
Cross, I will say that lady and her
daughter belong to the Red Cross and
are willing to give help in every way,
but she and her daughter are not will
ing to give money to people who put
their names down on the Red Cross
list to pay one dollar per week and
then go around to their neighbors and
tell them if she can get ten cents to
help her it pays her dollar. She also
says that they take a large piece of
ice. Is this lady to go to Mrs. Burns
when she wants to purchase a piece
of ice? I say no. In reference to
feeding two dogs, it is her own bust
ness and not Mrs. Burns. If she
would only pick the mote out of her
own eye before interfering with 9TH
ers, she would not be able to see the
grass grow. The editorial was put in
letter box at one o'clock in the
morning. She says why not elimin-
ate dogs?" She went to Philadelphia
last winter and left her poor cat to
starve. l took it in and fed it. Why
didn't she eliminate her cat?

BUILDING FORD AXLES
ION THE LINE"
Progressive System of Assembly Is
Shown to Good Advantage
At Ford Plant.

One of the best places to observe
the Ford system of progressive man
ufacture and assembly will be found
in their real axle department.
Here the rear axle housings are
started in the process of manufacture
at one end of the department which
covers 80 bays and finally brought to-
gether with other parts to make the
finished zeal axle assembly at the 9TH
er end. During this entire process
no transporting is done, the different
sections of the assembly being passed
from machine to machine or placed
on endless chain conveyors according
to the location of the next operation.
At the extreme east end of the de-
partment one finds an immense pile
of bells as they are called. These
bells, two in number, on the car, are
bolted together, joining the right and
left hand sections of the rear axle
housing. They also enclose the bevel
drive gears through which power is
transmitted to the rear wheels.
When the bells are taken from the
big pile they pass through a few op-
erations before going to powerful ma
chimes that force the housing tubes
into the ends of the bell. At this
point the assembled bell and tube are
placed on a conveyor which passes
between double rows of lathes set
backs together. The lathe operators
take these assemblies from the con-
veyors as needed and perform several
operations, after which the assemblies
are placed on the conveyor where they
pass to another point where the brake
shoe assembly and other parts are
added in turn, the assemblies, for the
most part, passing in quick success
sion from one machine to another as
different parts are added and opera
tons performed.
At about t%wo-thirds of the way down
the line, the practically completed
housings are met by the axle shaft
The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1918-04-20

assembly which comes via conveyor
from the fifth floor of the building.
This assembly is then installed in the
housings and the assembled drive
shaft and housing, radius rods, hub
brake pull rods, etc., are duly added~
as the assembly steadily progresses
on a conveyor. During these various
processes, the assembly has progress
ed to a department where it is given
the finishing touches and then the
finished Rear Axle Assembly, as it is
known, is swung onto another con-
veyor which carries it to the side of
the building and thence down a crane
way to the loading docks where it is
placed in cars for shipment.

sTHREE FACES EAST"
AT APOLLO NEXT WEEK.

The plot of "Three Faces East" the
new play which Cohan and Harris are
going to offer at the Apollo Theatre
next week, concerns the exciting e X
p~erience of a famous detective while
investigating the activities of a band
of international spies.
A good detective play is like a good
detective story, everybody loves it,
and Conan and Harris, who have
shown themselves to be good judges
of value, when it ONE to picking
play material, say that the public
and that means everybody in Atlantic
City,-is just going to rave its head
off over "Three Faces East"
You have probably never heard of
the author of "Three Faces East" Mr..
Anthony Paul Kelly, but that's not
strange in view of the fact that, here
tofore, he has confined himself to
grinding out screen scenarios. But
take it from George M. Cohan and
Sam H. Harris, you are going to sit
I'D and pay a whole lot of attention to
him after you have visualized his first
effort and for this reason "Three
Faces East" has all of the elemental
qualities that go to make a perfect
play-love interest, suspense, thrill
ing climax, unusual situations and a
surprise denouement that is a positive
knockout.
Then, too, it will have the advant-
age OF a particularly splendid COM
pany for its correct Interpretation,
headed by Miss Violet Heming and
Mr.. Emmett Corrigan in the leading
roles and ably assisted by Frank Wes-
terton, Charles Edwards, David L.
Leonard, Otto Niemeyer, Charles Har-
burg, Stanley Jessup, J. Albert Hall,
Joseph Selman, May Seaton and Mar
ian Grey in the others.
"Three Faces East" will play the
Apollo for one week only and it will
play nowhere else until next Fall
when Cohan and Harris will present
it in New York, where they predict it
will run a solid year.
