come to an end and the morning news
papers speak OF Thursday as a
memorable day In the war. pointing out
the prominent part played by the Brit
ish army and navy in the far reaching
successes gained.
The Belgian coast forts. says the Daily
Telegraph in referring TO the German
withdrawal from the Channel coast
were symbols OF the enemys U-boat
Britain. The evacuation OF these
places, II adds. is doubly humiliating
and morally ruinous for the authors Of
the war.
The Daily Maj. after describing
Thursday as the best day of the war
says that by the rescue OF Lille the
British nation and army have been able
in some measure to repay the debt they
owe to France. adding:
ut Is equally glorious that the Brit
ish navy has been able TO rescue Ostend
and to restore to King Albert and his
people the coast for which they battled
so long"
The peril OF Germany. the Mai con-
\tinues. is increased by the danger In
the Balkans to Germanys allies by
the continued advance OF the Serbs.
Italians and French.
The Daily Express refers to the Ger
man cessation OF devastation In retreat
as another move to the Wilson line"
The whole British nation. the Times
says. will be glad 1t has been the priv
ilege OF the British troops to hand back
Lille TO France. The Times adds:
"Germany's belated abandonment of
the practices of barbarism Is the out
come Of allied protests, but II cannot
be forgotten that hundreds of towns
and villages have been savagely wrecked.
The wicked process OF deportation also
must cease and the unhappy people al
ready carried of must be returned.

these appear to have been engaged re-
Gently and some have suffered terrible
Losses.
From information reaching headQuar-
tiers this afternoon 1t seems that all
the available reserves of the enemy
north Of the River Lys have now been
engaged. Few, II any. divisions can be
spared from any other section of the
front. Moreover. II is now absolutely
certain that the Germans, in addition
to their other difficulties. are seriously
handicapped by a shortage of high ex-
plosive shells.
Captured orders show that the Ger
man gunners have been urged to use
gas shells instead Of high explosives.
and all ranks have been commanded to
save their brass cartridges when re-
treating. Even further economy is
exacted In the use OF shells. It being
admitted that the lack of ammunition
is hampering operations.
In the Lille sector the Germans ap-
pear to be rapidly Withdrawing their
guns far to the rear. leaving only a
protecting screen OF artillery.
The Germans, at least for the mo-
ment, seem to have stopped their orgies
Of burning and destroying, partly
through fear OF what the allied troops
may have a chance to do before long.
To-day's reports say no fires Of any con-
sequence have been observed except at
places close to the line.
How many civilians have been deliv-
cred from the Germans during the past
three days is uncertain. but the num-
bers run well into the thousands. Now
II has become a usual thing for the
British. French and Belgian troops to
send back momentarily from every town
taken large numbers of men. women and
children. From some of these evidence
corroborative OF the reports of the grad
ual destruction of the German morale
has been obtained.
For instance. 1t has been learned that
in the neighborhood of Heule and
Cuerne, north OF Courtral, entire regi-
ments fatty refused to fight. although
threatened with severe punishment by
their officers. These regiments finally
retired in body.
From prisoners. especially officers.
similar evidence is being obtained con-
stantly. The officers OF the Twentieth
Dragon Regiment of the crack Sixth
Cavalry Division, which had been dis
mounted and fought as infantry. say
that the spirit OF the men was broken
principally because instead OF getting
rest after their hard Sighting they
had again been sent into battle. peace

allzing effect on the morale Of the men.
gradually breaking down their will TO
resist.
During the last few hours some whe
and hastily constructed defence lines
have been encountered by the advancing
Allies in the area about Louphem.
Eeghem. Coolscamp, Pitthem and Thielt,
hut they have managed to get through
without difficulty.
Where resistance has been offered. the
advance has been stopped at that par
ticular point while an attack was being
organised Then the allied troops sim
ply stormed the Germans or outflanked
them, Furnishing them severely Many
dead Germans therefore. are lying here

Germans been forced to out of wide

North Sea to the regions east of St.

The greatest allied gains OF to-day
seem to have beei made east OF Doual
where the Britisn have sliced Off a sub
stantial corner on the east of the dis
appearing Lille salient. The last re-
ports received from there indicate tina
the British in their forward rush have

north OF Cambria and gained about fve

Steadily and not without some rapid

and the Lille salient shortly should be

east OF Lille that their troops hope to ind

possibly hope to gain time to catch
his breath in this whole area.
In Belgium the day has been occupled
principally in line Strengthening. The
lines now pivot on Bruges.. one running
generally to. the coast near Ostend, and
the second sloping off to the southeast.
Heavy fighting was reported ut only
one place to-day. This was at Oostroo-
beke, south Of Thielt. The Bel2ians
wanted the town and the ground near

a sort OF salient. So the Belgians went
