(no " week I most thriiiintt awry ot Cen- nde'e pen in the are“ battle ot Langemnrck or Ypree. We regret we eunuch give it in fall. but the ex- tracts from the Lhriliing Mory will give a whiff of the terrible conditions the Canadians faced. He says l "It is considered right that the mourning in Canada to-day for has- bands. sons or brothers who have given their lives tor the Empire should have. with as little reserve as military considerations allow. the rare and precious consolation which. in the agony oi bereavement, the record ot the valor of their dad must bring, and indeed the mourning in Canada will be very widely spread. for the battle which raged tor so many days in the neighborhood ot Ypros was bloody, even as men sppraise battles in this callous and lfte-enttaliiog war. Bat is long as bravo deeds retain the power to tire the blood of Anglo Sax ms, the sinrd made by the Canadians in those des. perate days will be told by fathers to their sons. The story of the second battle of Ypres is the story of how the Cane- diatt division, enormously outnum- bered, with dispositions made har- riedly under the stimulus of critical danger, fough t through the tiny and through the night. and then through another day and night, tought under their omtMsrg until, " happened to so many, these perished gloriously. and then fought from the impulsien ot sheer valor because they came from fighting stock. The enemy, of course, was aware whether tally or not may perhapl be doubted. ot the advantage his breech in the line had given him, and im. mediately began topuah a lormidable series of attacks It on the whole ot the newly loaned Sending salient. He then tells ot t he compulsory re. tirement of the French owing to the deadly asphyxiating gases need by the Germans.thie retirement leaving the Canadians left entirely unsupport- ed, It became " once necessary to extend the Canadian line to the left, to protect the rear and in the contne ion four gnu: were captured by the enemy, bat were afterwards re-tnken. He continues l Canadians Enormonely Oatnttmbered It it is possible to distinguish when the attack was everywhere so 'ttttttt it developed with psrtienlsr intens- ity " this moment upon the apex ot the newly-formed line running in the direction of M. Julien. It has al. ready been stated that four British guns were taken in a wood compare- tively only in the evening of the 22nd. Ia the course ot that night sud under the heavieet msehine-gnn lire, this wood wss esesnlted by the Canadian Scottish, 16th Bsuslion of the Third Brigade. and the 10th Bat. telion ot the Second Brigade, which was intercepted tor this purpose on its way to s reserve trench. The battalions were respectively com. The day was a peacetnl one, warm and many, and except that the pre viona day had witnessed a. famttMyr bombardment of the stricken tow ' ot Ypres, everything seemed quiet in front ot the Canadian line. At five o'elock in the afternoon a. plan care- fully prepared was put into exeention against our French units on the left. The Canadians have wrested the trenches over the bodies of the dead and maimed, earning the right to stand side byside with the superb troops who, in the titat battle of Yprea broke and drove before them the fiower of the Prussian Guards Look. ed " from any point the performance would be remarkable. It is amazing to soldiers when the genesis and com- position of the Canadian divisi n are considered. In its higher and regi- mental commands were to be found lawyers, college protessars. business men and real estate agents, ready with cool "lf-eontititsttett to do battle against an organization in which the study ot military science is the ex- clusive pursuit ot laborious lives. With what devotion, with a valor how desperate. with retrottreehtiness how cool and bow frightful the ama- teur soldier ot Canada contromed overwhelming odds, may perhaps be nude clear. even by anarraziva so incomplete as the present. On April 2a the Canadian division held a. line of roughly 5,000 yards, connecting " its terminus with the French troops, The division consist- ed ot three infantry brigades in addi- tion to the artillery brigades. Of the infantry brigades the firat was in re. serve, the second Watson the right, and the third established contact with the allies at the point indicated above. is e Barometer.
