OFFICIAL OPENING CEREMONY,

› EXQUISITE / TREASURES FOUND..

Luxon, February 16.

In the presence of Lord and Lady Allenby, the Queen and Crown Prince of Belgium, M. Suleiman, the Under- ssordtary of State for Public Works, M. Lacan, the Dirsstor of Antiquitice" and numerous distinguished people and prominent Egyptologists, the inner chamber of Tutankhaman's tomb was officially opened.

A nord-ending cavalcade of all kinds of vehicles wound its way to the Tomb rudely breaking the ancient brooding silence of the royal necropolis. The rigour of convention had to bow to exigencies of the space and ventilation conditions within the tomb,"

!

Lord Allenby obstted to the Queen of Belgium in his shirt" sleaves on account of the closeness of the atmosphere and the Queen did not hesitate to.. squeeze through the narrow, dusty aperture made in the sealed door. All were overjoyed at the exquisite treasures. Bubanquently many distinguished people and the American and French Ministers visited the naw chamber.

The vastness of the collin has aroused the presump tion that it may contain other mummies besides that of Tutankhamen but certainty will not be forthcoming in the present year because it is believed that Lord Carnarvon has decided not to work farther until nart scanon.
