PURCHASE RESTAURANT.

Realizing the steady growth of
~Pleasantyille and the business oppor-
tunities presented here, lie Roy and
Lewis Westcott, two of the brothers
who have conducted a restaurant on
Atlantic avenue, near Virginia avenue,
in Atlantic City, for many years have
purchased the restaurant at SO South
Main street, formerly conducted by
William Adams. The transfer was
made last week, and the new pro
prietors took possession last Sunday
morning.
The local establishment will be OPP
Grated as a branch of the Atlantic
City place. When extensive altera-
tons and Improvements are complet-
ed the restaurant will be run at night,
closing about two o'clock in the morn
ing. This is something that Pleasant
vile has needed for a long time, a
restaurant open late at night. Espe-
cially at this season of the year there
is plenty of travel by automobiles
through the city and belated travel
ers often desire some place to obtain
meals after the usual closing hours.

Mrs. VanNess Guest
AT Absecon Meeting
Delivered Address Before Women's
Republican Club, Declaring for
Organization.

Mrs. Jennie Van Ness was the prin-
cipal speaker at the meeting of the
Absecon Women's Republican Club
last Thursday night at the Absecon
Inn. She was accorded a great recep-
ton by. the Absecon women and also
by a number from Pleasantville and
Atlantic City. After the meeting she
stood in a receiving line with Mrs.
Virginia Johnson, vice-president of the
Atlantic County women's organiza-
ton; Mrs. Amy Penhallow, president
of the P~leasantville Women's Repub-
lican Club; and Mrs. Peterson, of At
lantic City, and each person present
was presented and shook hands with
the guests.
In her address Mrs. Van Ness took
occasion to deny that she had come
to Atlantic County at this time in the
interest of any candidate.
MY mission to Atlantic, as well as
to other countless" said Mrs. Van
Ness, lis to help TO arouse the women
of New Jersey to a better apprecia-
ton of the wonderful opportunities of
working in the interest of civic bet
terment which present themselves
through the Republican party. | GER
tainly do not favor a Woman's party
as against a Mems party. Such a
condition would be deplorable. Nor
do | think that the women should seek
TO dominate any political party. But
undoubtedly a and should
exercise a great influence for good in
civic matters. Much can be achieved
through appropriate legislation and
more by organization, and the oppor-
tunity of securing the sympathy and
assistance of such a great organiza-
ton as the Republican party must not
be neglected. Republican women
must work for the things in which
they are specially interested"
Mrs. Van Ness said that she vas
surprised to learn of any misappre-
hension regarding her visit to Allan
tic County. She declared that she had
no Interior motives and had only de-
cided to fill a number of engagements
resulting from pressing invitations
from various organizations in this sec
ton at this time in order to save
much travelling back and forth.
After the Absecon meeting Mrs.
Penhallow stated that Mrs. Van Ness
would come to Pleasantville at a later
date to address the local WOmen's
Republican Club.

ture. Last Saturday there was no
club shoot held because of the high
wind. However, several club mem
bers gathered at the traps and held a
practice shoot in which some fine
scores were made, considering the
gale which caused the targets to hug
the ground very closely.
The scores made were as follows:

PLEASANTVilLE MAY HAVE
SPRING CARNIVAL

Several carnival managers have
been in town during the past week
endeavoring to interest local mer-
chants and civic bodies in a large
carnival. The managers are seeking
the cooperation of u business peo-
pie and would like to run a good,
clean amusement carnival under their
auspices. The proposed affair is said
to embrace clean amusements of vari-
Gus kinds and to be free from all OBJ
jectionable features, and would be run
on strictly business principles.
1t has been pointed out that such a
carnival as is proposed would draw
large crowds of people from nearby
municipalities, which would naturally
benefit local business interests. The
carnival would probably take place
sometime during the spring months.
