from WOR, Newark, you may con-
sole yourself in the fact that it will
be on the air again at 8 tonight.
They steal upon the listeners like
the first star of the evening; no
trumpets herald their approach and
yet their beauty sends light into
thousands of homes. They sing and
play many of the old familiar selec-
tons that carry one back to the good
old days that in retrospect at least
appear so happy and carefree.

SLATE SELECTED
 FOR BIBLE CLASS
N. H. Camp to Be Nominated for , President of Organization

Past presidents, all but one Of whom are members of the Meth odist church, will have charge Of the dostinies of F.Neryman's Bible class if plans of the new nominating com- mittec are carried out.
 The committee has decided to nominate Assistant Corporation Counsel Mortimer II. Camp for presi- dent and E B. Skinner. Arthur II. Parker. Walter r.. Fletcher and Bert r. Armstrong for vice presidents. Richard Hubert. Jr.. vii! be nom mated to succeed himself as treas urcr and David 0. Swanson will be nominated for secretary. Charles J. Symonds will be renominatcd class historian.
 Mr. Camp was the first president. acting in that capacity at the pre- liminary meeting in the Methodist church when q meeting was called by Rev. John l.. Davis. to hear Dr. o. r. Bartholow discuss the Bible class movement. James M. Burdick later was elected acting president and was succeeded by Robert R. skinner, who became the first presi- dent of the class at the official or Canization. Mir. skinner served two years and was succeeded by Arthur H. Parker. Mir. Fletcher later be- came president and in turn was fol lowed by Mr. Armstrong. All four men had active and successful .tcras. Mr. Palmer Is just about to complete his term.
 Regardless of probable contests before election. there is Il general feeling that the men named on the slate as drawn up will have the united and unanimous support of all the members, if elected. That nomination will be made from the floor seems fairly likely unless the committee itself supplements its re- port. it is said.
 The nominations were made by an emergency committee named at the last meeting of the executive com mittee when the standing nomina- ting committee resigned >ir1 q body. Those on the new committee are: Clarence C. Palmer. William C. Hotchkiss. Rev. William II. Alder son, Rev c. II. Schneck. Rev. T. X, Greene. 4. A. Mills, Joseph R. An odrcws and r.. A. krausc.
 No recommendations have been made for officers hy the armies. as there is a movement on foot 10 re- organize the class and do away with the armies.

New Britain Man Returns Home From Mississippi Valley Where Towns Are Under Water.

Scenes Of devastation and destruc- tion are recounted by William E. Pease of 5S5 West Main street. who returned today from Little Rock. Ar kansas. in the western flood district
 Mir. Peasc who is connected with the Commercial Trust Co, left New Britain April 16 for the west. When he arrived 1hero the flood was in progress. His train. which was due in Little Rock, Ark, at 1:10, did not arrive until GAS. due to the neces- sity for slow running on account of water climbing up the roadhcd. In many places as far as could be seen, the roadbcd was under water and streams were pouring between the ties.
 At one place near Wynn, Ark, 1t was impossible for the train to pro- ceed and it was necessary to go back l6 miles and transfer 10 another line.
 In North and East Little Rock which are on lower ground than Little Rock itself, the water rushed through the streets in a raging tor rent, the current so swift that it was impossible in many places 10 paddle z canoe or row q boat When the levce at Big Rock broke, stores. houses and other structures in Little | Rock were under water, all but the roofs
 In some places Mir Pease said to- day, the water flowed through thc smaller towns at q speed of 40 miles an hour, taking telephone poles and , frame buildings with it. A steel rail- road bridge loaded with coal cars, washed away. On the higher places there were groups of refugees hud- dled in railroad stations and rescue parties were at work on all sides. MT. Pcase spoke 10 members of several rescue parties. One party told of finding girl mother 19 years old, who had been in the water with her baby from Monday until We'd nesday, battling with the current. The water was mp to her arm pits and she was holding the baby above her head. She was taken to a hos pital hystcrical.
 Another party told of finding q mother and three children marooncd on q tree. The current was so swift that no boat could reach thc tree. In an attempt to save the life of q baby which foil. the mother lost her hold and all fell in the water. One child was rescued. Tho others were drowned.
 Many people were maroonel on top of freight cars. Going into that section Mr. Pcase saw farmers float ing cattle out on q raft they pro- rellcd on water which was even with the top of q picket fence X week later the fence was Is feet under water.
 Water moccasius, deadly poison oUs snakes, were stirred up in swarmS and typhoid fever and scar let fever is spreading among the refuge the New Britainitc stated.
 Trains are running from l2 to 36 hours off schedule. At places where the Arkansas river had q water mark Of IS inches the river had risen 10 q height of g feet Tclcerams took whole days to get through. From Tuesday until Fri day Little Rock was completely maroon"d.
 "Tho Red Cross association is doing wonderful work there, looking after the rofugres,' said Mir. Pease.

 Charles X. Levine, chairman Of the board of directors Of the Columbia Aircraft Corporation, sponsors of the proposed flight of the Belianca mon- oplane, when informed of the death of Commander Davis. said:
 "A tragic fate has eliminated an other gallant attempt 10 cross the Atlantic. While the plans will pro- ceed with the Bellanca plane, the sporting spirit has been removed because of the fact that wc have lost Davis, and Commander Byrd's plane, the America, has been practically eliminated"
 When Davis left a week ago for Langley Field to put his plane through q series of tests there, he expressed doubt as 10 whether or not the plano was capable of talk ing off on the nonstop flight across the Atlantic.
