Most Notable Adance Since Anglo

Bulgars Drawing Back.

Smashing the German line on
front of six miles north of the Somme
in France, the British forces have
made probably the most notable adj
vance since the Anglo-French often
size began July l.
Three towns, two woods and the
possession of nearly all the high
ground between Combles and the Poz-
ieres-Bapaume road fell to the British.
Not only did the Germans lose these
points but the British drive imperials
the Combles and Thiepval positions, at
either end of he British front. The
gaining OF the high ground north of
Combles gives the British command
of the approaches to Bapaume.
The advance on the northern end of
the front was for a distance of two
miles. Courcelette, east of Thiepval
and north of the Pozieres-Bapaume
road, and Martinpuich, south of the
road, fell into hands of the British
Further south they took Fleures and
the High wood, making secure their
possession of Ginchy. The BouleauX
wood, north of Combles, also was lost
to the Germans.
Many Prisoners Taken.
The Germans under Crown Prince
Rupprecht of Bavaria, fought stub
bornly to hold their ground London
says, and the fighting was severe all
along the line. More than 1900 pris-
Oners were taken by the British
