W. BRITISH FORCES In salon
Iki.-This Is the story Of how the
geese OF KaIe-Zir gave the warning
and saved a British detachment.
When the Bulgars left their native
Businesses and came down into the
plains. their ADVANCE was halted BY
certain famous river and a historic
lake. A British company was holding
the upper lake, for IL was divided into
two parts connected by the river. The
company was charged with responsi.
bility for the upper lake and i've
miles OF the connecting stream as far
as Kale-Zir. They had absolute com
mand OF the lake thanks 10 the mo-
torboats, and a crossing there was in
conceivable. but the river flowed
through a maize of reeds and swamps
and forests, most parts OF which ap
peared absolutely impenetrable from
the British side. A feeling OF com
partiye safety peryaded the British
camp.
Then one evening the orderly officer
set out from the camp on his bicycle
to visit two outposts up the river
nearly two miles from the camp. II

= The path ran quarter OF mile
along the marsh and then died an
abrupt death in sitting fence oil
reeds. The officer and his orderly dis.
mounted and listened They could
discern over In the twamp long line
OF men in single file
Back at the picket post the orderly
sent a man TO warn the camp, while
he remained behind to keep the
enemy raiders under observation.
The raiders were two hundred
strong, under command Of a German
officer. They kept to the path until
just before 1t came to clearing.
Then they halted and prepared to at
tack. They got into loose sort OF
open order and came on quickly.
At that moment the British officer
fired four shots. Immediately light
over the British camp appeared. The
glare was dazzling There was mo-
aenf's silence and then a roar OF fire.
II was complete surprise. The raid,
crs were punched close, and must have
had fifty casualties in the first fusil-
lade. They made no attempt to resist
but flung everything away and made
for the maize fields.
The first person picked up was the
German officer in charge OF the enter.
prise, who had been hit in the thigh.
Altogether there were 25 dead and So
wounded, while 35 more surrendered
themselves during the morning at diff
ferent places and more kept giving
themselves up for several days. Prob
ably not more than five or six ever
got back to the Bulgar lines.
