sympathy in your loss"
andra, Princess Victoria and the Duke
Of Connaught also have sent the widow
sympathetic messages.
A remarkable tribute Is paid by the
British press to viscornt Northcliffe.
Naturally the Northcliffe publications
make the greatest effort to eulogi5e
'the chief" and "The Times" devotes
four pages, with upturned column rules,
as mark Of mourning, to biographical
sketches and messages of regret from
Journalists politicians and diplomats
in all parts of the world.
The press generally terms Lord
Northcliffe the greatest British jour
nalist of all times. His spirited Fleet

sonal friends, Lord Burnham and Lord
Daily Telegraph" and "The Daily
Express" are unstinted in their praise
Of Northcliffe's service to journalism
and to the empire.
The morning pictorial papers print
pages Of pictures Of Northcliffe, in eff
forts to portray his life graphically.
Half a century of files have been
raked for photographs. One shows him
as boy riding high-wheeled bicy
Gle. Another pictures him with Arthur
Bslfour, pulling Wilbur Wright's air
plane at Pau, where he first saw a ma
chine in flight.
A third picture shows his first meet
ing with a then little known member
of Parliament, man Of slight figure
with black, dropping mustache, who
later waste become his bitterest enemy

there is no tribute in to-day's "Times"

"If you go in there with wings on,
