The meeting was in accord with the spirit of President Wilson's procla' | mation for observance of Memorial Day, opening with prayer" by ool Klarberg, and closing with plea by Dr. J. I. Norris that the Supreme Ruler give Americans strength, "clean
 hands and pure hearts and the will to- support Loyalty the armies of the United States and her allies, fighting for the peace freedom of the world. Patriotic songs were sung by Misses Ernestine, Eunice and Alice Norris, 1 the meeting being conducted with the singing of "America' by the assem- blaze.

S. l Frissell, commandant of Eberts' field, and Lieutenants Thos. J. Kiaran, Earl 1 M. Harvey and Lawrence, who flew over to select a site for a landing l station here Major Frissell said he 1 could not make an address because l the war department had recently for j bidden men in the military service to address an assemblage of any kind.
 He said he felt kindly disposed toward | Pine Bluff ''because this was the | place where l had my first job,' re 1 ferring to the time he was connected with the Cotton Belt here, some eleven years ago. He expressed the hope | that satisfactory arrangements for a l landing station could be made, be- cause he'd like to have ships come
 over every day and he planned to be
 a passenger or pilot very often on
 one of the machines coming to Pine
 Bluff. 4
