READY FOR THE BREEZE.
“11l the North of France the process of reconstruction of the devastated areas has not meant that the mines have been replaced just as they were before they were destroyed by cannon fire of the war, hut again upon the basis of the very last word in engineering and mining science. K very where new head gears, new winding plant, new underground machinery, new boiler plant at the central power station, consuming a low-grade fuel, raising steam on an economical basis, for the production of huge (Quantities oi electricity to supply tlie whole of the undertaking with power as well as their ‘cities des ouvriers,' and the adjacent villages and towns as in the case oi the now mines of Belgium. It is true that: both these countries are suffering from a form of temporary depression, hut when the trade wind does blow they will, have their sails ready to catch it. 'whilst Groat Britain, unless it ho more technically prepared than it is at the present moment, may remain becalmed in the inertia of its own creation.” —Mr Frank Hodges in the "Daily News.”
