In order to secure the widest observance of this anniversary, a Committee on "Form of Prayer" was appointed on May 16 1905, consisting of the following: Rev. Dr. H. Pereira Mendes (Chairman), Rev. Dr. M. H. Harris, Rev. Dr. Philip Klein, Rev. Dr. K. Kohler, Dr. S. Schechter, Rev. Dr. Samuel Schulman and Rev. Dr. Joseph Silverman.
