The gridiron- tadled lizard -is very swift and agile, and when chased will race over the sand at fifteen miles an hour. Most. of the desert reptiles of the Colorado Desert are colored like their surroundings and are difficult to de- tect. Others can change their colors 19 suit their surroundings, while not a few of the desert lizards are able to part with their tails very rapidly when they are seized.

For two days Hill. 70 had béen obscured by the smoke of battle. The Canadians attacked, August 15, 1917, and attack and counter-attack follow- ed each other so rapidly that the place looked like a smoking volcano. The hill commanded the mining city of Lens. That was the reasen that the fight on both sides was so des perate. The British thought that its possession would give them Lens. and the Germans were of the same opinion. By Thursday, the second day of the attack, the Canadians were in possession of the 'hill. Midnight the sorely tried third brigade was lieved by the first brigade. ar Second Battalion moved up s I in the hot summer night to the tor around the chalk pit and Hugo wood, All day Friday the ene ay, still de- termined to get back thé hill, bom- barded the Second Battalion trenches. By Saturday morning only 614 men were left to hold the line. During the night a fresh division of Prus- sian Guards had been poured info the enemy line. These fresh troops passed through their own lines with- out stopping. At four o'clock, before dawn, the Hun opened a terrific bars rage on the lightly held lines, and for 40 minutek continued to pound them with every kind of:shell. Then 1s of liquid fire were thrown into our trenches and the Prussians charged across No Man's Land Acting-Major Learmonth was in charge of the second and third com- panies of the battalion. He went along thg¥rench organizing his men. With complete disregard to his per- sonal safety he led a charge against the invading Hiins whe had plunged into the trench at the left, and bomb ed them out, Looking out from his trench he Saw a party of Germans taking shed ter in a bit of wood in front of his position.. He organized a bombing posed the att tre strea party and led them out and standing. on the parapet of the trench hurled bombs into the enemy cover. The Prussians were driven out of the wood and down an old communica- tion trench of the deserted German sysgem, then out into the open, where hif men caught them with machine gh and sharp shooting.

Then Major Learmonth re- eetved his third wound, this time breaking is leg. In spite of the pain and logs of blood he directed the at- tack. Lying in the trench he gave orders and advice to his junior off. cers before handing over his: com- mand. At six o'clock the bearers | carried him back to headquarters where he gave a minute account of how the line was being held before he was taken to hospital. He died i soon afterwards. { For that heroic hour and a halt of | service the British authorities award | ed Major Learmonth, posthumously, the Victoria Cross. Okill Massey Learmonth was born {in Quebec in 1894. On the day that he went into the trench for his last | fight, the official record of his win- | ning the Military Cross in a pre | vious engagement was published. -- | Carolyn Cornell in the Toronto Star | Weekly. i ---------- They!

DR. CHARLES J. HASTINGS Medical Officer of Health for City of Toronto "Of the various babit-forming drugs, alcohol stands out as pre- eminently the greatest curse to humanity. The role played by this drug in the lowering of efficiency and in the actual production of organic diseases is such as to make it essentially a problem of preven- tive medicine and one demanding immediate action by administrators of Public Health.
