Birmingham, Alabama,

Birmingham, Alabama,
August Is, 1924.
Editors Pleasantville Press
Arrived here Saturday, August Is.
| spent three days at Florence, Ala
bama, in the Muscle Shoals district.
The members of the Florence Cham
Der of Commerce and the Mayor of
the city extended every courtesy pos
sible. They are planning big doings
at Muscle Shoals If Henry Ford, of
automobile fame, gets it from the U. s.
Government, and everyone says Ford
will make things boom in Muscle
Shoals, but they are all a~nxiously
waiting for the good news that Ford
has 1t. l stopped one day in Mont
gomery, Alabama, which is a hustling,
prosperous city, and also stopped over
at Tuskeegee, Alabama, and was the
guest in the evening at the Tuskeegee
institute. This is a wonderful place
and shows the world what Booker T.
Washington has done for the young
colored folks. Everything around this
institution is the best. l had lunch
there and remained for a musicale,
given that evening in their large audi
torium with a seating capacity of over
5000. Fine singing. and musical selec-
lions. They have everything at this
great place, band of 100 pieces, own
FIRE company, own bank, and they are
the finest body of young people I have
v e met. I gave them a little talk
about my trip, which they all enjoyed.
Also stopped over at Bessemer, Ala
bama. Large steel mills here working
to their fullest capacity. They manu-
facture the famous Bessemer steel.
| am now in Birmingham, which
they call the Pittsburgh of the South.
The Mayor has extended to me the
freedom of the city. They have a big
Chamber of Commerce, all live wires
and boost hard for Birmingham. They
have a great lake and pleasure resort
called East Lake. There were over
5000 in bathing at East Lake Sunday.
/ also visited the famous Pratt mines
and went several miles under ground.
| leave here Aug. 20 for Atlanta, Geor-
gia. All along the route | have been
invited to dinners, luncheons and en-
tertainments of all kinds. The Boost
Signs for Pleasantville make a hit, and
they do everything they can for me.
Well the weather is still hot here. and
| am going out early tomorrow to visit
several of the smaller cities and towns.
Will write you from my next stopping
place, which is Atlanta, Georgia.

HIGHLANDS.


Mr.. Albin Engstrom has just receiv-
ed his new Bnick sedan. Congratula.
lions are being generously extended
in this valuable addition to his pos
sessions.
Some people are born lucky, they
say. Mr.. Joseph Lupton is one of the
lucky ones in the possession of a large
field of elegant sweet corn. Not be-
cause of, but in spite of, the dry wea-
Their. In fact all of his produce is
above the average. His ground has a
solid clay subsoil and held the spring
rains and carried him over the dry
spell.
Mr.. Henry Hornbostel, of building
fame. who recently built three bunga-
lows on Pitney avenue, has sold all of
them, we are told. and his new one on
Church street bids fair to be sold be-
fore it is completed. A number of
buyers are looking it over. Henry is
a very enterprising citizen of Absecon
Highlands. Keep up the good work.
Henry.
Mr.. Eckert has been home enjoying
his vacation in his new home on Pit
ney avenue.

FUNDS FOR FLOAT

Frank Hubin did a fine turn for
Somers Point. When City Council
turned down the request for 500 to
help get a float for the Atlantic City
Pageant and the Chamber of Com
merce having no funds. as they used
all their money to boost and advertise
Somers Point. Frank saw their posi-
ton and started a fund to put a float
in the Pageant Chairs Parade by send
ing his check. Now the Chamber has
over $500 contributed by Somers Point
people in general, and donations are
arriving daily. Somers Point will have
a beautiful float in the Pageant that
the city will be proud OF.
