BATTLE-LINE AVENUE.
A memorial scheme for the planting of the whole of the old battle-line from the Belgian to the Swiss frontier with a belt of trees has received in the French Chamber the full support or the deputies and the Government. These "trees of ..remembrance —elms, willows, oaks and firs —said a member will beautify ground hallowed by the fallen youth of France and her Allies, and will show pilgrims from Gre’ar Britain and elsewhere that France knows how to honour her dead and theirs. The Government will take the responsibility for accidents from unexploded shells and. bombs.
