Camden News Notes Sixty feet from the ground, a 20,000-gallon tank is being erected for a soap manufacturing concern at Fourth street and Atlantic avenue. A delegation from the Second Ward Republican Club yesterday attended the funeral of William Robinson, which took place from his home at 842 Carpenter street. Efforts are being made to have Dr. Nachman Heller, of Harrisburg, become rabbi of a Camden synagogue. He is widely known in Jewish circles for his brilliant writing. Work of installing a much-needed padded cell in the city jail has been completed to the satisfaction of Mayor Ellis. About the only thing to show that yesterday marked the city's eighty-second birthday was the flag which floated from the tall pole in front of the City Hall. Members of the Debating Society of the High School will wrestle with this question next Friday night: "Resolved, That Co-education in Public High Schools is Undesirable." At the North Baptist Church yesterday, Rev. Kerr Boyce Tupper, of Philadelphia, preached eloquent sermons to large congregations. This church has not yet selected a successor to Rev. Kittredge Wheeler who resigned to go West some months ago. Camden churches continue to experience a wonderful awakening as a result of revivals. Mary Jones, 29 years old, of 911 North Second street, was badly bruised by a trolley car at Broadway and Newton avenue yesterday. She was taken to her home in an ambulance.
