EIoht Republicans Join Democrats
Making Vote 70 to Extra Vote
for General Scott Important
Measures viii Be Rushed.

Trenton.-The long deadlock over
the State Highway Commission was
finally broken at $50 Tuesday eve
ming when the Senate confirmed the
Appointments Of General Hugh l..
Scott and Walter Kidde, Republicans
and Abraham Jellin and Percy stew
art. Democrats.
The eight bitter enders' among the
Republicans stood out to the last but
eight conservatives Joined the four
Democrats to stand by Governor Sill
ger. Senator Allen, Republican, OF
Salem county, was absent when in the
last conference on the situation the
vote stood S to S and the conserVa-
tive element under the lead Of Sena-
tor Stevens put over the confirmation
motion.
The eight who fell into line for the
governor. aided by the Democrats,
were: stevens, Case. Whitney, Pier
son. Blackwell, Parry, Larson and
Roberts. The eight who stood out to
the last were: Richards, Smith,
President Wallworth. Reeves, Mathis,
Bright. Foodor and Mackay.
General Scott was accorded the hon

worth. who had opposed confirmation,
turned in for him on the final count.
The other three got u votes, n
more than the required i.

all efforts failed to bulge a single Il

When the legislature returned for
the final days of the session there
was an air OF uncertainty as to the
exact attitude of the Senate Republi-
cans on the proposal to yield to Gov
ernor Silzer on the confirmation of
the four members Of the new Highway
Commission.
The flag Of party loyalty seemed to
have been waved over the heads of
the seven or eight Republicans who
last week ayowea their purpose to
Join the four Democrats to break the
jam that has held for nearly eight
weeks.
The question was raised as to
whether such an act might not be
construed as disloyalty in view OF

candidates are in the field. Sister
Emma NJ. Clay. R. W. Asso. Grand

GIVEN PRIZES

On the Honor Roll of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad for the year 1922 for

Bile mention in commendatory letters.
The prizes came for having the best

Division No. IA, of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, for the entire year. The let
ter which accompanied the cash prize

mar and his assistants for the care of
portion of the road under their con
troll.
Foreman Hackett. who has had
thirty years of railroad experience,
was transferred to subdivision No. Il
in 1917. He found a big job awaiting
him, as this subdivision is considered
n of the most difficult in the whole
Supervisors division. He purchased
a home in Absecon at the time of his
transfer.
Assistant Foreman Porlapoeo is also
a home me in Absecon. In addi-
ton to keeping up his difficult work,
he has recognized the value of a good
education to further his desires to adj
vance in railroad work and has taken
an additional course in English, with
a private tutor as well as a course at
the night school in Atlantic City, dur
ing the years 1919-1921.
Track Waterman de. Phillips has
n of the most responsible jobs on
the line. 1t is his duty to make daily
inspections of the tracks and to re-
pair, if possible, and report any de-
fects which may be discovered and
which would impair the operation of
the road.

JOINT COMMITTEE
TO HOLD MEETING
Will Gather at Port Republic to
Consider Question of Enlarged
Territory.

At the January meeting of the Main
land Ministerial Union, held on Mon
day at Salem M. E. Church, Pastor
Runyon, of the Port Republic Metho-
dist Church, extended an invitation
for a meeting to be held in his church
on Monday, February 26th, to consider
the question of enlarging the terri
tory and taking in pastors to the
Union from as far north as Barnegat,
around to Hammonton and on down to
Ocean City.
The ministers accepted the. invita-
ton of Bethany M. e. Church to hold
the February business meeting in that
church on Monday, February 18th. 1t
was agreed to hold an afternoon and
evening service. An ~inspirational ser
mon will be preached either by Rev.
NJ. G. Buck, of the Ocean City Baptist

Church.
1t was moved that the Union send
representatives to Trenton on Thurs

the meeting of the Anti-Saloon League
to be held there on that date. Rev.
j. L. Keith Macleod and Rev. w. E.
Pettet were selected as the delegates
to that meeting.
A motion was also passed that the
ministers go on record as being OPP
posed to the exhibition of pictures in
which Fatty Arbuckle appears in
moving picture houses. In making
this motion the ministers wanted it
distinctly understood that they did
not desire to deprive any man of hav-
ing a second chance in life, but they
thought Arbuckle should adopt some
<oYher department offife than motion
pictures.
During the afternoon an address was
delivered by Rev. C. S. Kidd, Presi-
dent of the Eastern Conference of the
Methodist Protestant Church. He
took for his subject, 1.-THE Tactics of
The Modernists', and asserted that
modernism is simply unbelief. He
delivered aspowerful message of God

MASONIC LODGE
For THIS CITY
New Organization VIII Meet in
Junior Mechanics Hall, Which
Is Nearing Completion.
New Grocery Stores

With the completion of the new
building for the Junior Order Ameri-
can Mechanics, at the corner of Main
street and Decatur avenue, near at
hand, II is likely that a Masonic Lodge
will soon be instituted in Pleasant
vile. This matter has been in con-
temptation for several months and it
is said that the Masons, when instr
tuted, will occupy one of the hand
some e. lodge rooms in the Excel
sior Council building. At the present
time Masons in this vicinity are mem
bers of Keystone Lodge, at Linwood,
and local members desire a lodge
nearer home. The new Juniors build
ing is expected to be completed and
ready for dedication in February and
the Masonic Lodge will probably start
about that time.
Besides the Masons and Juniors, it
is said that the new fraternal building
will also be used by the Daughters of
America and possibly by Union Lodge
OF Odd Fellows. There are several
other orders meeting at various places
which will use the new hall, besides
the social organizations which will
hold dances and entertainments there.
The new hall is to have stores and
apartments on the first floor. In one
= -
OF the stores is to be located a branch
store of the A. & P. chain grocery
system. The other store will be c
pied by a roofing company. The OBJ
ening up of a new A. & P. store IN
that location is soon to be followed,
it is rumored, by another one of the
American Stores, which will probably
occupy a building directly opposite.
The city needs more grocery stores
to accommodate the increasing trade
and the two new stores will be greatly
appreciated by the people who have
to make their purchases for daily con-
sumption. At present all the grocery
stores are rushed to capacity, and
even beyond capacity at times during
the busy hours.
Pleasantville is expanding rapidly
in the direction of Decatur avenue,
and new business enterprises are look
ing in that direction for suitable loca-
tons. That will be a busy section
when the new Stanley Theatre is
erected and the five new stores of J.
Flute are completed and occnnied.
