BRITISH CAPTURE, MERVILLE

The British advance in the valley

oi’ the Lys continues and Merville has been ciii<~i'i~.il by Sir Douglas ll:i.lg‘s troops. 'i‘lic Germans are not giving way readily and the ground won by the British has been captured, only after sharp fighting. The advance is on a front of about six miles, ami has carried the British over a number ,of difficult water courses in the valley of the Lys. There seems to be little doubt that here as in the valley oi' the Somme and Oise the enemy has reconciled himself to a considerable

loss of territory, but is endeavorliig' to make the Allies pay as high aprlue for it as he can.
