J., Aug 21 When Rev. Dr. Robert W. Rogers, professor in the Drew Theological Seminary, pronounced the story of the Flood a myth and a parable be: fote the Young People s Bible Class today there was a mild sensation. For years, said Dr. Rogers, re- Kigious teachers all over the world have been puzzling their heads over the variety andthe featares of the Bible story. They have womdered how big the Flood was, and Wwheth- or it was all over the earth as the story states, all the while forget- ting to teach the story of the Tove: of God. s Drs-Rogers- explained that for many years he had been working Out one of his own translations of the tablet, and read it to his aud ience. The story was recited as a tale told by a spirit of the mother world, to one who had gone before for succor from disease. In all 3 sential features it was the same as the story all knew from from the Bible, except that the'gods of the Babylonians were referred to in it. It is - only a story to convey a knowledge of God, he added. Tt s probable that Dr. Rogers will be taken to task for calling the Flood a Babylonian myth. Asbury s Baby Parade. Asbury Park, N.

With only a dis- trict school education, gained near his birthplace in the middfe part of Pennsylvania, he gained: a position in the steel industry that -has been recognized by the whole wofld.

PWhen the United States Govern- ment, some twenty-five years ago, decided to build a modern navy of armor-plfted vessels. equipped with guns of great-eallbre, there was no plant in the country where the plates, guns and forgings for such ships could be made. Bethlehem was se- lected as the site for the projected Plant and Mr. Fritz was chosen as the man to build it. He went to Europe and spent some months in studying the plate and gun making plants there, and when he returned he built a plant that surpassed its European models. Among other features it con- tained the greatest hammer and the most powerful press in the world. When Mr. Fritz built this, the first armor plant in America, such men as Schwab, Corey and others who Subsequently became famous in the steel industry, were still boys, , Mr. Fritz is the only man now liv- ing of the small group that introduc- jed into'the United States the Bessem- er steel process.
