mcnts Without Aid of Tanks and
Drive Huns 70 Rear

The British have captured the
high ground on which Is Bourbon
Wood. and now dominate the region
around Cambria after two days Of
extremely severe but. victorious
fighting.
The Germans have removed the
civil population from Cambrai. The
British are expected to besiege the
city from which they are now separ-
ated by only three miles.
Nearly 10000 prisoners. hundreds
OF guns and much war material have
been taken In the drive.
The Germans are resisting des-
perstely the British advance which
Is being pressed most energetically
In this east-to-west front. General
Byng's evident intention Is to drive
in behind the main Hindenburg line,
preached In Tuesdays surprise at
tack. aud the Queant- -Drocourt
switch line. while still pushing his
sncircling movement Of Cambrai to
tho north and east.
The main attack was along the
western bank OF the Canal du Nord,
which runs almost due north and
south from point little west OF
Havrincourt.
There was intense work almost
from the start as the Ulsterites who
undertook this task got In among
the German defenses. Because OF
the secret nature OF the attack no
artillery could be used to cut the tre-
mendously strong lines OF barbed
wire In front OF the trenches and
the tanks we're not operating In this
section. Therefore II was necessary
for the Trishmen to charge the en-
and bomb them to
pieces in order to force their way
through.
The ulsterites hurled themselves
on the Germans with such fury that
the latter, we're compelled to desert
their machine guns and abandon
the hills. and many Of them were
shot. down as they fled northward
along the canal. A large number Of
prisoners were captured.

der the auspices OF the Red Cross.
Or. Foster is one OF the leading

interest.
There will be tickets issued for
the luncheon to the capacity OF the
Chamber OF Commerce rooms. which
will be sold by committee OF the
Red Cross. Those desiring to hear
DR.. Foster should secure their tick
cts at once.
