Poincare said the German ambassador to Belguim, attempting to influence the Belgian Govern- ment had told officials that "France had commenced hostilities, that she had bombs dropped by a divighle on German territory, that 24 French officers disguised as Prussians had penetrated the German frontier." "But these false accusations," 'he Premier added, "did not mislead the Belgian Government. After reviewing other events at the beginning of the war, the Pre- mier paid a tribute to the Unknown Poilu, who had fallen on Belgian soll, § Played His Role "He played his role in the long and bloody conflict which termin- ated In the deliverance of an op- pressed people," the Premier said. "He fought for his country and for a friendly nation which preferved suffering to dishonor and which sac- viticed everything for justice. In celebrating the conduct of the French and Belgians who split their blood in this cause, we do not apologize or defend ourselves. Even less do we desire by evoking these memories to prolong irritating controversies.

"For my part, if 1 allow myseif hefore this monument to speak of incidents of Belgium's invasion it is because it is truly difficult for those who have been witnesses of the tacts to allow anyone to misrepre- sent them in order to prepare for revision of the treaties. "Belgium and France have not ceased to practice with adequate sin- cerity the policy of approachment vegun at Geneva and Locarno. To- day they have the same desire as yesterday. It is not only reason but the sentiment of humanity which counsels us to the end differences with our neighbors. It is for our best intevests.' King Albert referred to the monu- ment as consecrating the solidarity of France and Belgium, AUTO KILLS GIRL Toronto, July 20.--Seven-year- old Lydia Stephens was fatally in- jured on Saturday near her home in Trafalgar Township near Oak- ville when she was struck by an automobile while ruuning across the Hamilton Highway. fhe was removed to the hospital for Sick Children here where she died Sun- day.

T. Courtney's flying boat, the "Whale," witly which he hopes to make an air trip to New York, took its second successfui 1.ghe across the knglish channel Sunday evjaing. The flying boat was in. the hands of mechanicians all morning; they repaired the leak which was ob- served on Saturlay, fixed extra gas and oil tanks, and tuned up the machine generally, Capt. Courtney, Navigator-Down- er and Mechanic R. F. Little con- férred before the start, and it was learned that there was to be a test of how the crew of three could or- ganize an effective liason. The machine was floating in the water by 4.80. The wind was strong and the weather bad, but Courtney had the "Whale' in the air within nine seconds, and she remained up for 45 minutes, A speed up to 110 miles an hour was attained, and the pilot kept an altitude of from 1,000. to 2,000 feet, On his return Capt. ney sald: "This is a distinct improvement on my first trial, The controls worked well. The front engine is still a bit stiff, but further tuning up will soon put that right." Little more heyond wireless out- fitting needs to he done before the start, which will probably be at dawn on Wednesday, the flying boat reaching Valentia, Ireland, about noon, For the first time in the history of trans-Atlantic air flights a secret code will he employed to describe the flight hy wireless. Lieut. Downer explained Sunday that the wireless apparatus will be of the regulation air force type with a wave length of 600 metres and a radius of transmission of 600 to 760 miles. The call will be GBEQO. "Probably," added Lieut. Down- er, "we may send out a lengthy hulletin hourly, but all in a secret code, copyrighted to a Lonlon news- paper." However, radios from the "Whale' asking for position or as- sistance can be picked up hy any- hody. Another interesting fact is that 4 the Court- "Whale" is Capt. Raold Amundsen's old machine. Dornier sold her to Awundsen and after his successful flight the German constructor bought her back, re- conditioned her and lemt her to Courtney. Everything on the fly- ing boat, motors, magnetos aud all have been lent for this flight. One of the most disinterested spectators at Monday's trial was Olive, Courtney's four-year-old daughter. She arrived Monday with her mother and a dozen friends. A little flaxen-haired girl, happy playing beside the sea, refused to be overawed by the giant: plane, and when her father wearing overalls wanted to put her in the pilot's seat she resisted violently, and went on throwing stones into the sea, Conversing with the correspond- ent Sunday afternoon while the "Whale wus in the air, Herr Schulter, the London manager of the German Dornier firm, said that Dornier at pregent is building 20 boats like the "Whale," with mot- ors of 1,100 horse-power, to be de- livered in September to the Soviet Government at Moscow, There is only one proper way to keep cream sweet, and that is to keep it cool, says the Farmers' Ad- vocate.
