of April 22d last was given before the

History Club on Monday by Lieut. H. T.
C. Walker, of the Royal Navy. One of
the few officers selected to man the Vin-
dictive on that occasion, Lieut. Walker
has been sent to the United States in
charge of the official British War pic-
tures. é

_ According to the lieutenant the Vindic-
tive, accompanied by two supporting
ships, was only accessory to the main
purpose of the raid, namely, the sinking
of the Thetis, the Iphegenia, and the In-
trepid, in the entrance of the Zeebrugge
Canal. The duty of the Vindictive and
her consorts was the incapacitation of
the batteries on the mile-long mole pro-
tecting the harbor.

Escorted by a few destroyers and fifty-
foot launches, and armed to the teeth,
the expedition, composed largely of ma-
rines, left England on the afternoon of

April 22d. At 11.45 that night the Ger-
mans at Zeebrugge noticed their smoke
screen, and opened fire immediately. By
their flares the enemy saw the men of
the storming party grouped on the decks,
and, training their guns on them, in-
flicted heavy losses.

At exactly midnight, said Lieut.
Walker, the Vindictive landed her four
hundred men. By scaling the ladders the
party descended to the inner level of the

|mole, demolishing the batteries and a

German destroyer, which was discovered
napping. At the same time the bridge
connecting the mole with the mainland
was destroyed.

At 12.20 the blocking ships entered the
har bor. Two of them were sunk success-
fully across the mouth of the canal, ef-
fectually bottling up German destroyers
and submarines in the port of Bruges.
An hour later the expedition had started
home, leaving behind only twelve live
men, the three sunken ships, a destroyer,
and one small launch.



After the lecture the History Club en-
tertained Lieutenant Walker at tea in
Pembroke East.

Alsace and Lorraine French at Heart
(Continued from page 1.)

Premier, was one of those who protested
to the Reichstag, and so it is particularly
fitting,” continued Mme. Riviere, “that he
should have taken part in its return in
1918.”

Between 1870 and the present the two
provinces have suffered miserably under
the yoke of Germany. Many of the in-
habitants emigrated to France and Amer-
ica. Those who remained were subjected
to cruel treatment. French was forbidden
in the schools, French inscriptions on
tombs were blotted out and those who
showed sympathy for France were put in
prison. When the war broke out hun-
dreds went to. prison rather than support
Germany. Six hundred officers escaped
to France and fought for her as compared
with six who fought for Germany.

Slides of American Troops

Slides of the American troops in
France were shown by Mme. Riviere
after her lecture. Soldiers learning to
speak French from the young girls, play-
ing with the little French children, build-
ing tent cities, cooking and learning the
art of trench warfare and many others il-
lustrating the life of an American fighter
in France. A photograph of the artist,
Julian Mordant, who has been blinded in
the war, was shown. M. Mordant recently
was awarded a prize by Yale University.
