ARE
STILL GOING IN
Push Their Posts Farther
Into Lens With Very
Little Resistance.

Canadian Army Headquarters, Aug,
27.-During the past few days the
Canadians in front Of Lens have had
period Of comparative quiet and
have been able to consolidate posi-
tions recently captured with little re-
taIiation from the enemy and with
surprisingly little loss
Posts have been pushed out at IA
vorabIe points and where trenches
could be connected up TO shorten the
front this has been done. The gen
eraI result is that the Canadians hold
a compact line. which, on that part
Of the front west Of Lens, is about
500 yards from the burned out area
in the city. The enemy occupies the
area between this line and his main
defensive position on the eastern side
Of the burned out section by means
Of strong outposts located in concrete
cellars. The chief incidents occurring
now are in connection with encOun-
Jers between patrols.
During the clearing up operations
the Canadians have destroyed three
more machine guns and captured five,
making the total Of machine guns
taken since August is. 49, Twenty
one trench mOrtars also are among
the spoils Of war.-lBy Canadian
