AN INTERVIEW WITH SAMUEL HEAVENRICH

who is not only the oldest member in fully remembered as having endeav- —

point of age but in point of service,
still retaining an active interest in
the matters of the congregation. Mr.
Ileavenrich joined the temple in 1861
at the age of 21 years, just 11 years
after the Congregation Bet El (as it
was then spelled) was founded. He
is still a member of the board of di-
rectors, having served for 34 years,
and held every office in the temple,
including the presidency twice. Mr.
Ileaysmrich helped lay the cornerstone
for the temples at Woodward and
Eliot and Woodward and Gladstone.
In an interview Mr. Ileavenrich
stressed the activities and worthiness
of Louis Blitz, with whom he served
as vice-president during the stirring
period at the beginning of the cen-
tury. During their administration
the temple at Woodward and Eliot,
which was to serve the congregation
until 1922, when the present edifice
was dedicated, was planned and built.
It stood as a monument to the untir-
ing efforts of Mr. Blitz, said Mr.
Ileavenrich, but others pay a like
compliment to the then vice-president.
Mr. Ileavenrich quoted a short para-
graph which Mr. Blitz wrote shortly
before his death in 1905:

woman is held. But what interests me most is the pride that Connellaville

in the daily press letters from Gentile residents eager to broadcast to the
world the good news. Everybody seems to be happy about it. Mrs. Cohen
is the first woman to be elected alderman in the State of Pennsylvania. Her
husband met with an accident some eight years ago and lost his eyesight;
they have five children and Mrs. Cohen has been the main support of the
