The French aviation commission
wired Bleriot on his landing at Do

world"
1t is undoubtedly true, as suggest
ed by this message, that the new
and elusive cavalry of the clouds
will make the nations more reluct-

Thus every improvement in the
methods of destruction tends to
smooth the wrinkled front of war
The deeper truth that lies back of
this is that the perfection of war
tools requires the highest kind of in
dustrial organization. That kind of
organization is possible only to peo-
pie devoted to art ond science-and
such a people will appreciate peace,
and insist upon having it.
Meanwhile the sudden develop
ment of the airship does, indeed. in
dictate the line of mechanical refine

tendency is destined to run.

Queen Wilhelmina.

XuCcu w DuitiIllud.
Queen Wilhelmina of the Neither
lands was born August 81, 1880, the
daughter of the late King William
III. and his second wife, Princess
Emma. In 1890, when ten years Of
age, she succeeded to the throne upon
the death of her father. During the
minority of the young queen the
country was ruled by her mother
who had been proclaimed regent In
1898 Queen Wilhelmina came of age
and was enthroned with imposing
ceremonies in The Hague, the capital
of her dOminiOns. The next import
ant step was her marriage to Prince
Henry of Mecklenburg Schwerin
which was celebrated on February
7, 1901. On April 80 last all Hol-
land was made happy by the news
that the young queen had given birth
to a daughter. The advent of the lit
tie princess, who was christened
Juliana Louise Emma Marie Wilhel-
nina. was regarded as of great po-
litical significance, as it provided a
direct heir to the throne of the Meth
erlands. a circumstance that very
greatly enhances the chances of the
country for continued independence.
