London despatches on Tuesday said: King George has been at the front for a week. He left today for England, and his departure was the first intimation that his Majesty’s troops had of his presence. As a matter of precaution the visit was kept a secret, and there was no dis- play or big reviews as on the occa- Ion of his visit last fall. The King 3 ly went about seeing all sections of t e army at work and the fields it had won. The Prince of Wales was with the 'King all of the time. The Monarch was dressed in khaki and the Prince wore the uniform of a Lieutenant in the Grenadier Guards. Neither were any decorations, and, but that their features were immediately recognized everywhere. they might have been taken for two of a party of officers making a round of inspection. Tours All British Front Quietly With Prince of Wales For Week At one point on the line the King mot Gen. Sir Henry Rawlinson, Com- ander 0% the Fourth Army, which elivered he main attack, and Major- Goneral Congreve, whose corps storm- 0d Montauban and Mametz. Alightinx from his automobile near Fricourt the King went into the first-line British the? ches, from which the British made the charge. Germans Anxiously Trying to Fore- Itall Fourth Drlvo London despatches on Tuesday ' : Sharp infantry clashes along the tish lines marked the fighting Mon- in Picardy. while at Verdun was a strong bombardment fol- g the repulse of determined Ger- attacks, launched behind screens liquid fire during the night. From E intensity of the artillery fire on Somme front it is believed the nch and British are preparing for mother concerted attack in an effort to break the German lines. The third drive, that was launched last ‘ day, has now definitely passed, and the Germans, with their artillery resources recruited to a larger total than ever before on this front, are engaged in a heavy counter-bombard- ment in an effort to forestall a new smash at their front. What infantry fighting there was today was entirely local in character. The Germans at several points delivered attacks, de- signed apparently to lighten the pres- sure on sections of their front. Gen eral Haig toâ€"night says that all these attacks failed. KING GEORGE AT FRONT Brim tones in Germ East the 124th Toronto Battalion, 119th Ame; have forced a. passage of thoi ‘ Sault Ste.
