CANADIAN HEROES
Marvellous Feats of Val0r by
Merry Dominion Boys.
One "NOn-COm" Kills Is Ger
mans and Keeps on Fighting.

Canadian Headquarters, France,
Sept. 19.-AWards still being made
for heroic conduct indicate that
Canadian courage never reached
higher point than in the battle of
Lens. Repeated cases are found in
the records in which Canadians per-
formed featS of valor, Nin order that
their comrades might be saved.
A non-commissioned officer of
British Columbia battalion led a sec
ton which had the difficult task of
'mopping up" cellars, craters and ma
chine gun emplacements. In one cellar
he bayoneted three Germans and at
tackled single handed, seven others in
a crater, killing all of them
On reaching his objective a machine
gun was found holding up his right
flank, causing many casualties. The
officer rushed forward, entered the
emplacement, killed the crew and
brought the gun back to our lines.
Today he attacked single handed, an
other machine gun emplacement, kill
ed three of the crew and destroyed the
gun and emplacement with a high eX-
plosive charge. He killed at least six
teen Germans and carried on" until
wounded.
Saves Many Comrades.
Another hero-one of a Saskatch-
evan battalion, when his bombing
party was compelled by superior
force to retire, having their supply of
bombs exhausted, covered the with
drawal of his comrades by mounting
the parapet of trench and bringing
such rapid and accurate rifle fire to
bear on the Germans that they were
held back until the withdrawal was
completed.
Another British Columbia man after
three unsuccessful attacks had been
made against heavily wired machine
gun emplacements and a strong point,
organized a fourth attack. The wire
wire was penetrated by him personal
ly. He bayonetted three of the de-
tenders and killed a fourth with the
butt of his rifle. The machine gun
was silenced and position captured.
But for his daring, the official record
says, Our attack would not have sue
ceeded. Sergeant Flavelle, of Mani
toba, when his platoon was held up in
the enemy wire by a machine gun,
rushed forward alone, shot the gunner
and disposed of the rest of the crew
before the gun could again be put into
action.
Stretcher Bearer a Hero.
Private Henry Carl Hansen, of Man
itoba, a stretcher bearer, several times
in daylight made trips into No Mans
Land, carrying water to the wounded
who could not be brought in until
darkness, and no doubt saved the lives
of many.
