-Lieutanant Williams wears two wound; stripes on his sleeve and has been given the Military. Cross by King George for having led the raid on a German trench and dugout at Ypres, in which the Germans were all killed or taken prisoners. Lieutenant Will hams was so badly bayonetted that it
 was necessary to amputate both legs
 ct the lips. Roth arms were wounded
 and bayonet was thrust through his
 right arm in which he also carries
 scraps Of Mills hand grenade.

Detection of four notorious German spies through laboratory methods Of discovering hidden writing in docu- ments. has been accomplished by the efficiency of the Postal Censorship in London, it is announced. Securities worth z 1,000,0G0 have been stopped in course of transit for enemy use, and
 e1, E50,0 900 worth of stock or bonds detained for investigation. Enemy
 communication through the mail has
 been completely cut off, and public
 money has been saved by the discov-

 plies, to the extent of G650,000 in
 voived in a relatively small transac-
 ton in one importune commodity. During this year ten thousand
 ''cloaks'' or intermediates for enemy
 trade. have been detected and their activities stopped.
 The staff of the headquarters of the Postal Censorship totals 4200 of whom S,179 are women. Their work requires such education and skill that the government had difficulty in se- curing qualified employees, and a
 school was established to train candi- dates to detect codes, secret writing and other subterfuges. The average number of letters censored each day i ic over 305000 weighing about foul l tons
