Ottawa, Ont., Sept. 4-The following
cabled summery of developments on
the western front has been received
here by the director of public informa-
tion from the British minil-ltery of in-
formation:
On the British front the advance
has been continued along the whole
liue from the Somme to the Scarpa,
On the left flank ,north of the Scarpe,
Gavrelles and Arluv-on-Gobelle have
been captured, while south of the
Scarpe we have gained Clberlsy and
Fontaine4Les-Croisilles. These places
have never before been in British
hands. Our advance here -has car-
rlild US tW0 InllBs'east of the further-
est line ever reached in 1917.
It seems evident that the enemy
intends retreating to a shol'terlinc_
to obtain a better defence position
and to economize in troops. Il.-
probablywill retire to the- Hindell
burg line, but will endeavor to post-
pone this course until the weather
renders active operations impractic-
able. He will probably make 11 shor.
stand west of the liindenburg line.
A Iready seriously Threatened
Events will show whether he is :ll-
lowed to retire gradually accordillg`
to plan. The British advance on
either side. of the .Scarpa is already
a serious threat to this' line. The ell-
emy cannot allow us to'advance much
further here without endangering his
the determined resistance of thIs__
part ofthe front. The British advance
therefore is highly important, tho’
the ultimate effect of it is not yet
known. ‘Some divisions exhibited the
old determination; others surrender-
ed freely.
It is necessary to guard against
exagerated expectations of a. Gernluu
collapse. Nevertheless the fighting
in_ th elast month shows a notable
deteriution _in german morald, dis-
estimnte the German total losses in
dead i'rom the beginning of the war is
largely conjectural, but the figure is
certainly well over two millions.
Total captures for the British to
the end of August exceed 47,000 ami

Protection oi Bird Li
At the weekly meeting of the Rot-_I
ary Club in the Kosey Korner yester-
day, Mr. A. E. Morrison, Hon. Sec-
retary and organizer of the F-isll ulld
Game Association_ delivered an inl-'
portant address on the preservation
of the bird lii`e oi the Provlncef
President ll. G. Vanllllskirk presided.`
Mr. Morrison said it was beyond
question wo were extermillating our
birds, legally or illegally, very much
more rapidly than they were breed-
illg_ In England and the older coun-l
tries _of Europe it was 'found neces-l
sary long ago to adopt means to pre-
_serve wild game from extinction, tlle`
rapid increase of population and the
spread of settlements, having not
only depopulated the forests but de-
nuded the land of its timber. Our
Island although originally' teeming
with birds has already suffered so
much frolll these causes as well as in-
discriminate slaugiltel' tllat measures
equallly stringent. are necessary. to
prevent the total extinction of bird
life. The duty of the present hour
wus to save our birds fronl extinction
alld protect the farmer and fruit
grower from the ellorlnous losses
ironl insects, worms alld rodents.
To protect our forests by protecting
the birds that keep down the myriads
of insects destnlctive to trees and
shrubs and to preserve sufficient
game to give, posterity a taste ol-
what we now enjoy. was surely al
duty devolvlllg llpon every right
thinking citizen. A deadly war is
being waged against insect pests all
over ille continent, and this could
largely have been avoided had the'
insect killing birds been left undis-
turbed ol' preserved ill suillclellt nulli-
bcrs to counteract the insect growill_
ill fighting posts, birds are worth
fifty times more to men than all thu
poison sprays und traps that ever_
were invented or used. The actuul_
cost value of those birds through tlle_
destruction of insects is euormous,`
yet throughout the province the num-_
hcl* of shore birds is fast diminishing
and total extermination seems in-_
evituble. The beetlellead is seen now-
only as 11. straggler, the golden plov-
er once abundant is now rare,`
the eskimo curlew has been extermin-
ated and the other curlews greatly'
reduced. The farmers have by theirl
suplneness permitted the indiscrilll-
inate slaughter of a stock of game
