British airplanes began to fly low over the city, hut not a British Tom my was In sight. After tense minutes of anxious wait ing three things happened. Charles Delasolle, Jr., a French aviator and son of the mayor of Lille, flew over from Dunkirk and lighted on the Champs de Mars. Two correspondents of the _E*tlt Parlslen and Le Matin of Baris trudged, after a long walk, through the Armentleres gate ipto Lille. Mellett and I entered the Pbrt fib Pontes.
