THE COAST ALIGHT.
R.A.F. SHOWS ITS STRENGTH.
COUNTRYSIDE LIT UP.
(Received This Day, 9.5 a.m.) LONDON, September 26

Early to-night the entire coast between Dunkirk and Boulogne appeared to be on fire, lighting up the country almost like daylight. Terrific explosions in the neighbourhood of Calais and Cape Gris Nez shook Kent. They were the heaviest of all the raids on the French coast.
