solacing effect in its note of optimism
and give us the gratifying knowledge
that Canada is fulfilling its duty ill

fact that His Royal l-Iighncss, with his

LONDON, Feb. 12.-'rue Briuslll
army in France is now making use of
heavy llowitzers, which, according to
with the expeditionary force, have.
proven superior to the heavy German’
gulls. These howitzers, he states.
were used in successful attacks on
German positions in the brick fields
south of La Bassee Canal, a week ago
to-night. Our heavy howitzers took
part in this bombardment. Tile oflicial
eye-witness nays: Their efforts were
being directed against the railway
triangle. Bombs of these pieces and
tho detouations of their shells were
heard twenty miles away above the
roars of other artillery, while to those
close at hand the shrieking of the
great projectiles through the air was
most impressive, as were the volumes
of smoke and debris thrown up. Tile
effect of the lydiite shells was truly
terrific as they burst among the brick
stacks creating greiit havoc among the
enemy. One house was literally blowll
bodily into the air. The assault was
launched against a strong position
held by the Germans. Ollr storming
columns rushed the works from three
sides at once and had very little
difficulty in capturing it with ilttlc
loss. .
As the prisoners afterwards slated,
the noice of the bursting shells was
so great and tho clouds of dust with
which the defenders werc surrounded
were so thick that they did not ob-
iate. At the same time the trenches
to the north of this point ulld between
it and the canal were stormed by
another party. By securing these
noints we were enabled to occupy
continuous lines southwards fronl our
forward position on thc canal, which
formed an advantage to our position
in front. of the brick fields. We cap-
tured nineteen unwounded prisoners,
in addition t.o many wounded, trench
mortars and machine guns. The Ger-
mans .ieft seventy dead on tho ground,
while our casualties were insignifi-
cant. The Germans, however, showed
no disposition to accept this reverse.
for in the early hours of Feb 7th. in a
body they advanced along the canal
bank, shouting out: “ Don`t sllool, we

are engineers." This form of strate-
gem, unfortunately for the enemy, bu
lost its novelty. Our men held their
fire until the supposed sappers were
but a few yards away, then opened
with la. machine gun, with the result
that the “engineers” fell back, leav-
ing thirty dead on the field.
In the afternoon another attack was
attempted, but it melted away under
our artillery fire and did not come to
close quarters. The great feature in
recent lighting has been the accuracy
oi ollr artillery fire. On one occasion
our guns accomplished the feat of
blowing the Germans out of the
trenches they were occupying on an
embankment, though it was only forty
_yards from that which we were hold-
ing. On Feb. ti most of the success
was due to ollr shell tire.
Tile wllole area, both behind and
immediately in fmat,_ol .ills trenches
we now hold, was found lo be littered
with bodies of hundreds of Germllla
killed in various tights since January
25th.
Our artillery are here obtained such
ascendancy that after the assault 6!
that day ollr troops were actually able
io put up barbell wire ontanglements
ill front of their trenches in broad day-
light without being fired on by the
enelny’s infantry.
Tile prisoners captured here are
despondent and nluch shaken. The
Germans rely lnucll on the incendiary
shell for damaging towns, and in the
bolllbllrdnlellt of Armentieres they
lnalic use of projcctiios of this type
pllclvl-ll with cillltlles composed nf
cnlluloili. phosphate and wax, which
is so inflammable that it will ignite if
Placed ill tho sun.
The oiiicial eye-witness refers to the
poor physique of many Germans esp-
iured and tells of finding in the
pockets oi' ll dead German two certifi-
C9-USB Sl10Wlni; he was suffering from
consumption, and all application from
the soldier's father asking that he be
relieved fronl active service. He also
quotes letters which, he says, were
received by soldiers from homo and
found oil their bodies, complaining of
the increased cost of living and the
,scarcity of bread. and stating that
ieven school boys were being forced
