S|MONDS' WAR REVIEW.

the purpose of the April operation was
far less colossal than that of the Octo-
Ger campaign. Then the road to Calais
had been sougth. Now the Germans
aimed merely to weaken the allied Of
fensive to the southwark by drawing
from it men. munitions and guns. They
sought also to- impress the neutral ma
tions Italy most Of ALL with their great
strength on both fronts. This strength
was proven, but Italy was already lost,
and the use of the poison gas served
to arouse the indignation of all nations s
outside the central alliance. 1t was
one more circumstance in the indict-
ment of civilization against Germany.
After Ypres quarter was neither given
nor taken for many months on the
Ypres front. and before very long the
Germans in their turn. We're compelled

Victory Due to Use Of Gas.

without the gas the German success
would have been unlikely. AS IL vas
the success was limited and the moral
consequences evil in the extreme for
the Germans. The sinking of the Lnst-
tania while the second battle OF Ypres
was still proceeding was instantly as
sociated in all minds with the crime
OF the poison gas. And just as the
Zeppelins were the best recruiting q
agency in Britain, German savagery
reused Canada to new effort. and in
the first three years of the war more
than 100000 Canadians crossed the sea
to fight in Flanders and Artois.
Such, briefly. is the history of the
origin and development of the fpres
salient. In the first battle of Ypres the
Germans, attacking east OF the town,
mainly on either side of the Menin
road, gained the hills Of Wytschaete and
MessInes In the second they took the
Pilkem ridge at the other side of the
salient Henceforth they held it in
q wise between these two ridges until
June and August. 1917. when the Brit
ish first retook Wytschaete and Mes
sines, and then, with the aid Of French
divisions, swept the Germans off the
Pilkem ridge, retook Pflkem. Bix5-
choote. Langemarck and St. Julien. and
thus abolished the whole salient. Until
this time the Ypres salient remained
the worst point on the whole allied
front. and for a long period there was
a sharp debate in British military cir
cles as to the advisability of holding g
Ypres or retiring to the hills behind II,
Scharpenberg and KENNEL.
Evening star., 1917-10-14
Sentimental Value of Ypres.

Ypres was not evacuated, mainly be-
cause of the moral value that attached
to II as a result of the two great bat
ties. Only Eerdun could rival the old
Flemish citadel now gone to dust and
ashes, in sentimental value in the first
three years of the war, and the return
of the British to the offensive in this
region In the fourth year of the strug-
gle makes 1t probable that Ypres will
remain for the British and the Cana
dian public the greatest incident in the
war. Even the Australians who came
