FAMOUS STRONGHOLD
TAKEN BY CANADIANS

British Front in France and BEL
gium, Aug. 15-Hill 70, the famous
German stronghold northwest of the
French mining city of Lens, which
dominates the city and the Loos sal
lent, was captured this morning by
the Canadian forces.
The British also pushed their lines
into the northwestern envrons OF
Lens in a semi-circle around the east
ern side of hill 10.
The British attack was made on
four thousand yard front which had
an extreme depth of 1900 yards.
Beginning at a point just above
Hugo wood, the new British positions
now run southeast and beyond hill 70
towards Lens. The line then bends
southwest and encircles the suburbs
of st. Laurent and st. Emile.
The British guns had been pound
ing for days hill 70, which the Ger
mans considered impregnable. The
infantry attack began at 4:25 o'clock
this morning.
The capture of hill 70 ranks in i'm
portance with the biggest military
operations of this year. 1t was the
last dominating position in this sec
ton which remained in the hands of
the Germans and from it a wide ter
ritory can be controlled. Hill TO is to
the Loos salient what Messines is to
Ypres, and in some ways it is even a
more enviable position that the Mes
sines ridge.
Hill 70 was bombarded with guns
of all calibre which worked havoc
among the German defenses. The
Germans undoubtedly prepared for
the attack for there is no question
they were aware it was impending
So it was a case of the better side
winning.
1t was just 25 minutes past i when
