Hebrews Will Build
Synagogue Here Soon
Arrangements Complete to Hold
Christmas Holiday Services at
Two Old Turnpike.

The Hebrew residents of Pleasant
vile have organized a Congregation,
and plans are being perfected for the
erection of a Synagogue in the near
future. L. Solomon has offered to
donate a lot for this purpose, and the
officers selected for the Congregation
will accept this generous offer. The
exact location for the new Synagogue
has not yet been selected.
The Congregation will worship for
the present in the Solomon Building,
Two Old Turnpike, where services
will be held over the Hebrew holidays
soon to be observed. The Hebrew
Christmas holidays begin on Monday
evening, September 10th, and services
will be held on Tuesday and Wednes-
day, September 18th and 18th. Rev.
J. Weinberg, of Atlantic City, will give
his services gratis to the new Congre-
cation for the holiday period.
The temporary Synagogue will be
used until subscriptions, which are
now being taken, amount to sufficient
to defray the expense of erecting the
permanent Synagogue. The officers of
the new Congregation are as follows:
Chairman, Mr.. Shapiro; Secretary, L.
Susman; Treasurer, Samuel Hecker:
Membership Committee, Jacob Rap
port and Samuel Hecker.

Dredge Sand Bird
Destroyed By Fire
Spectators Unable to Render Aid
When Hill Dredging Com
pany Maehine Burns.

In a spectacular morning blaze the
dredge Sand Bird, owned by the Hill
Dredging Company and engaged in
filling in a tract of land for Benjamin
Fox in Egg Harbor Township just be-
yond the city limits of Pleasantyille,
was destroyed on Thursday. The
dredge was valued at $4,000. The
destruction of the dredge will cause
considerable delay in the development
of the Fox tract.
Frank Matthews discovered the
fire about 4 o'clock as he was passing
on the meadow boulevard. He al
once notified employees of the COM
pany, who rushed to-the scene. Be-
fore their arrival the dredge was a
mass of flames. Anchored as it was,
more than 100 yards of shore, near
the entrance of what is known as the
basin, it was impossible for the would
be fire fighters TO battle with the
flames.
No fire companies were called from
either Atlantic City Or Pleasantville-
There were no fire plugs in the vicin-
ity of the dredge, as water mains
have not been laid in that section OF
what is known as West Atlantic City.
Unable to combat the fire, those on
the shore were obliged TO watch the
dredge burn. In two hours time II
waS a smoking ruin.

geant as Miss Pleasantville". These
men. used to difficult tasks and situa-
tions, admitted that they were ex
tremely puzzled, as they We're pre-
scented to the five ladies from whom
they were to choose one. Pretty, ele-
gantly attired, graceful in movement
and bewitching in manne as they ap-
peared before the judges, the ladies
kept the five men a long time in deep
study before they were ready to an
nounce their choice. When finally
they announced that Miss Alberta
Smith was the choice as Miss Pleas
antville", the decision met with gen.
eral approval. Naturally there were
those in the audience who had views
different from that of the judges.
But. taken as a whole, the decision OF
the judges was approved, not only at
the dance Tuesday night, but by the
public when it was broadcasted.
The judges were J.. Sidman Selby,

Rose, of New York. In announcing
the judges decision, Mr.. Rose said,
You have assigned to us a difficult
task. You have presented TO us five
young ladies', any me of whom would
grace any occasion with credit" The
judges had in mind twelve points on
which to base their decision, and they
had to call the ladies before them
twice, as well as have them assembled
on the dance floor several times be-
fore they could agree TO their choice.
After Miss Smith was decided upon
as Miss Pleasantville", Miss Frances
Lawson, Miss Anna Lorine Boice,
