GERMAN PICNIC PARTY
TO OP BELGIAN MASSACRE.
London, July 2!l. Tho "Daily Chronicle's" correspondent at Paris states that tho German authorities organised an imposing pleasure party to a famous spot in Belgium where seven hundred innocent Belgian, civilians, largely women and children, were slaughtered on August. 22, 1914. The party included an official lecturer, who spofco in the graveyard, and ended by shouting "Glory to the Kaiser." The purpose of tho gathering apparently was to persuade tho Belgians of tho kindliness of tho German people, and the fact that it was necessary to invade Belgium in order to prevent the' devastation of the Fatherland. -Aus.'-N.Z:/ Cablo Assn.
