ritish Reply to
Poiracare's Proposals.
A despatch from Paris says:
—In a note handed to the al-
lied delegations at London on
Thursday night, according to
Havas despatch from Lon-
don, the British definitely out-
lined their attitude with regard
to Premier Poincare's propos-
als, The plan for a 26 per
cent. tax on German exports,
says the despatch, is accepted
by the British, as are also the
proposals for seizure of the
customs and the control of
mines and forests, but the lat-
ter control is agreed to only
conditionally upon the Ger-
mans continuing recalcitrant
and maintaining their opposi-
'tion to the new customs lines.
KING AND QUEEN
VIEW THE MAJESTIC
Wonders of World's Largest
Ship Amaze Royal Visitors.
A despatch from London.
"WflY does any one want' te; travel
first claiss ?” That was the remark
made by Queen Mary after she had
inspected the great kitchens, -bake-
boa:sets and sculleries on -the White
Stair Imer Majestic at Cowes.- With
the King, the Duke ef Connaught and
Prince George she passed two hours
on the w-oirld's la,rgest Ship.
The Queen was most interested in
the domestic arrangements and ques-
tione& the cooks, stewards and stew-
ardesses. While she was amazed at
the sweep of the firSt class public
eeorns Ishe baok interest 'in the
k%-.earicl class and steerage gun -sera,
whose .excellence inspired her remark.
The King displayed an intimate
knowledge of the technical stdf
shipbuildingwhen he diseassedi the
construction in detail with
Commeidere Hayes and officers of the
company. A lifeboat was lowered in
tlitiee minutes, and it was explained
how the ship's entire passenger ca-
pacity of 4,000tpeople could be cleared
in twenty-five ininutc-s.
Miss Winnie Elliott, a swimming in-
structor, won the congratulations of
the Queen with h;er :diving into the
ship'e pool. The King had a long talk
with a lye/ribboned galley man named
Curran: I
Prince George insisted on thel
electrically driven jumping horses in
the gymnasium and every one was so
initnested that the party ovetrztayed
its schedele by half an haw. Later. in
the day Princess Beatrice and other
notables from Cowes inspected the
ship. The King anal Queen returned
to Buckingham Pialiac,e in the evening.
They wene heartily cheered by a big
crowd ,at Waterloo station.
On the basis cS the recently pub -
census figures Canada's, indusi-
trial production amounts annually to
appnaximately $409 for ,evety man,
woman and child in the Dominion.
LIEUT.-COL. W. G. BARKER
V.C., D.S.O., M.D.
The famous aviator, who has just re-
turned to Canada after a visit to Eng-
land, says that the British plans for
building a fleet of 500 aeroplanes are
inadequate and that 5,000 would be a
more suitable number. He says that
the wars of the future will largely be
decided in the air, and that the great
speed, of the latest types of aeroplane
is such that no rangefinder could fol-
low them and they would be immune
from gunfire.
Alexander Graham Bell.
, Superlatives are generally out of
iorder, but it is a justifiable -superla-
tive to call Dr. Alexander Graham
Bell one of the greateSt men of the
mneteenth century. The test is
'Whenever any one is illustrat-
ing some point by a brief summary
of the greatest names of that century,
or for that matter of this one, the
last may vary, but it never fails to
include Bell. When one recolleata that(
some of these lists leave out the names'
of Napoleon, Darwin and Bismiarek,
the conclusion is irresistible. "
It is' worth noting, too, that Bell's
greatness was aehieveci in the serviee
