THE BRITISH STRATEGY.

General Haig's operations along the Ypres sector embody strategy that is easily discernable to ally and foe alike. He is trying to make a thrust behind the Belgian seaports in the hands of the Germans, and which are used as submarine bases.
 The Ypres region has been Brit ish battle-ground since the early days of the war; when the British held back the enemy there while the French and Belgian marines fiercely strug gled with the invaders at Dixmude to the north.
 It was in June of this year that Haig began Strengthening" the Ypres section with mining and blasting op- erations three miles south of Ypres. This done, the operations went fur ther north, but as late as August 2S of this year Zonnebeke had not been reached, but further north the Lange- marck-St. Julien line, comprising the German third system ot trenches, was taken. But the line of khaki pressed forward constantly, Zonnebeke being reached September 20, and things have been moving forward at the rate of about 2,O00 yards a blast ever since.
 The line in front of Ypres is now in the nature of salient, with the bulge in the direction of the Germans Last springs the line just cast ot Ypres was quite straight, and south of Ypres salient building aginst the British. A summer of fighting hae changed the character of the line ir favor of the British, and the etfec, upon the morale of the German in fantry-to find themselves continual ly pushed back, cannot but be detr
 ment to the ultimate plans of Hinden burg's defensive.
