Sub-titles: There are only seven cadets left, hut their training still goes on. Between the decks where young Belgians formerly learned seamanship oil will be stored hereafter. L'Avenir's few remaining cadets and the ship's officers. New York City: On the 250th anniversary of the installation of the first mayor of New York, this city is presented with an official flag by the city of Amsterdam, Holland. Subtitles: Mayor Mitchel accepts the flag from A. Van de-Sands Bakhuyzen, Consul-General of the Netherlands. The flag is raised by Mrs. Maria Duane Bleecker Cox, great-great-granddaughter of James Duane, Mayor of the City in 1784. Governor Whitman is an interested spectator. Old Guard takes part in the ceremonies. This is the flag. It combines the colors of the Dutch flag that floated over Manhattan Island before New Amsterdam became New York. How the martial spirit that is gripping England finds expression in the activities of the people throughout the land. Sub-titles: The shirkers, the young men who have failed to hear their country's call for recruits, are everywhere reminded of their duty. Even on crowded Regent Street they are exhorted to enlist by a singer of patriotic songs. A striking example to the shirkers is furnished when they witness a hero receiving his reward. A miner, who has won the Victoria Cross, is shown here being honored by his fellow-townsmen at Mansfield. David Lloyd George, the Minister of Munitions, who is taking a leading part in fostering patriotism, enters his motor car after addressing the Dock Workers Battalion in Liverpool. The Dock Workers drilled with enthusiasm since being placed under military rule, and now are as expert in tactics as any body of men in the country. Meanwhile the training of troops continues everywhere. The wayside pond where the farmer used to halt now is used to water the horses of cavalrymen tired by a long practice march. The entry of Italy into the European war has increased the number of patriotic demonstrations. Every day crowds of Italian reservists leave from the Victoria Station, amidst enthusiastic scenes, to join their regiments. Sayre, Pa: Mounted on a motor truck and accompanied by a procession of autos the replica of the Liberty Bell, cast for the Pennsylvania suffragists, starts on its vote winning tour of the state. Subtitles: At each town a halt is made, and a suffrage meeting held. Mrs. K.W. Ruschenberger, of Stratford, donor of the bell, is making the tour as a speaker. How the bell is carried. Toledo, O: 12.000 employees of the Willys-Overland Auto Co. march from their factory to Swayne Field to see an exhibition baseball game between the Detroit Tigers and the New York Giants at the employees' annual outing. Subtitles: Ex-Gov. Tener, president of the National League, and a former big leaguer, shows he hasn't forgotten how to handle a baseball. Ty Cobb and Christy Mathewson shake hands with Mr. Tener, Ban Johnson and John Willys, president of the Overland Co. Hughey Jennings does some characteristic coaching at first base. Robertson of the Giants makes a home run. Kansas City, Mo: The open country near this city becomes a vast sea of water as the recent rains cause the Kansas rivers to overflow.
