British Cavalry. French Artillery and}Serbians Partici-

paled_in_Struggle. The Bulgarians are Retiring. Their Total Losses ,Estimated at 100,000.,

LONDON, Nov. 7.-The Bulgarian

army descending into Serbia to invade Macedonia by way of Veles and Per- lepe was defeated at Izvor at the en- trance of the Babuna Pass, after a battle lasting several days, according to announcement made by the Serbian legation at Athens, and transmitted to Reuters Telegram Company.

French infantry and British cavalry'

took part in the struggle, and gave ef- ficient aid to the Serbiaiis. The Brit- ish horsemen arrived from Krlvolnk to assist their Allies.

The Serbians captured lvzor and

Gradsko.

The Bulgarians, whose ranks are

said to have been decimated, are re- treating in the direction of Veles, and have evacuated the right bank of Var- dar River.

Bodiuna Pass, where the Bulgarians

are reported to have been defeated is abous six miles northeast of Perlepe.

This announcement of a victory for,

the Franco-British-Serbo Allies appar- ently ls in direct contradictionof the claim made by the German war ofiice yesterday that French forces had been completely defeated, at a point north- east of Perlepe. Part of the French contingent was said to have been routed and the others made prlsoners.‘

ive Sermon _by

Voices.

At the First Methodist Church yes~

terday morning an unusually interest- ing and inspiring service was con- ducted in honour of the men of No. 2 Heavy Siege Battery and of the Iii- fantry, to whom an elevating and eloquent sermon was addressed by the pastor, Rev. R. G. Fulton. The church was crowded and the singing, which was done by a chorus choir of fifty voices from the Militia, had n. stirring influence on the congregation. ln all- dition to the ordinary hymns the choir sang the “ Hymn for the Army and Navy," “ 0 Canada,” and " Canada, My Home.”

Prof. Thompson, who lent~his inval- uable ,service to the choir, deserves' the greatest credit for the success of yesterday morning's magnificent musical programme-for such it was unanimously pronounced; Professor Thompson can bc depended upon to provide something novel and unquali- iledly good on any occasion.

Rev. Mr Fulton took his text from

Acts 17, 24 and 26: “God that made the world and all things therein . hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth." »

Mr Fulton said In part: " Ideal con-

ditions have always appealed to men. Literature in all ages has been iii- spiring the ideal. Men have been ln- fiuenced by Moorc's ‘ Utophia,’ Bucon’s ‘New Atlantis,’ Harrington's ‘Ideall Commonwealth.” In the matter of

statesmanship, the ideal suggested byl

That these have not been the dreams of mere idcalisls or dreamers is shown by the stnteiiicnt mudc by Lord Charles llcrcsfolul in 1899, when he said that the cliict' purpose of the British Navy was for the encouragement of com- merce. ,Commerce has been the maln- stay of the British Empire, and to-day even while the British warship! may lie scouring the seas for the enemy, at the same time these same ships are keeping open the lanes of tratllc so that the commerce of neutral iiatlons as well as that of the Allied forces may go on undisturbed. It is true that German plillqsophersn _particularly Bernlinrdi, have emphasised the need of war, claiming that war is not only a necessary element in life of a nation, but an indispensable factor of culture. One listening to a statement like this is reminded of Anthony Hope's answer to it when lie said: " Beholdthe pros- pect that lies before the world if the German plillosophy triumphs in the scIiools'niid thc military system which it iiispires,repeats the triumph in the field--for-_ the small nations. extinc- tion. political. intellectual. spiritual; (Continued on page three.)
