SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE.
OPENED IN BRUSSELS. By Telegraph.—Press Aasn.—Copyright. London, July 9. Mr. McWhae represented Australia and Sir James Allen New Zealand, at the opening of the agricultural school at Brussels, to commemorate wartime gifts. The Venerable Cardinal Mercier in a speech marked by eloquence and pathos, appealed specially to children to bear in their little hearts for evermore feelings of gratitude and affection to those great Dominions oversea. It was announced that one block would be named after New Zealand. Sir James Allen appealed to them to keep the flame kindled in war time alive, and urged that portions of the subscriptions be devoted as an endowment of Australian and New Zealand scholarships in the school at Brussels. The suggestion was enthusiastically received and is likely to be adopted.
