With the British armies in France,
April II. - The war on the Western
front. which has been moving more
rapidly in the last five weeks has
broken into full swing. Widening
their attacks against the retreating
Germans in the sector of the Somme,
the British struck still further north
and in a series of assaults on a broad
front, with Arras more or less the
pivotal point, they drove the Ger.
mans from scores Of important posi-
tions, penetrated far into the German
lines and inflicted heavy casualties.
A visit to corps headquarters show.
ed that the prisoners taken in the
IL hours totaled 5,816.
Capture vimy Ridge.
The heaviest fighting developed
along a line a few miles southeast of
Arras in a northerly direction toward
Lens, but the actions extended far
in the direction of St. Quentin. In
the territory captured was the famous
Vimy ridge, which had been fought
over time and time again ever since
the war was 10 months old. The
French had fought desperately and val
iantly in an effort to wrest this ad-
vantageous ground from the Germans,
the battles causing both belligerents
untold casualties. Back of the north
ern end of Vimy ridge lie the prin-
cipal coal fields of France, which are
still in German hands.
Canadians In Hard Fighting.
The fighting on Vimy Ridge was
carried out by the Canadians. who
had retained footing on the ridge
all winter, but always higher up was
the enemy. On either side of the Ca
nadians were English and Scottish
battalions and in the battle there
was glory enough for all. The ire.
pressible tanks" also shared in the
honors of the successful assault. One
position captured to the northeast Of
Aras was sort of labyrinth of
trenches enmeshed in multiple bands
of wire called "The Harp" because Of
its shape.
