Pte. fdurrav Fruitland writes as never, uvea iu the tradition of the race, k now ti a natioual artuy or a we - )come war. We know now that the new British army at the Somme began badly. al- ways having in mind the military fact. The inechinery that had been treated out of nothing did not win k moothly, easily. aucceiefully. There were terrible losses and fresh mis- takes. The advance did not sweep tor ward ; it was held up : tbe delve be- cme &meet at once a pounding, and it was weeke before the British prog- ress on the map began to compete with the French. Aturtiyet tbe fact that we can also moo now is that every failure in the Knit days became a thing of the past W. ACHESON & SON promptly. In the °peeing days the artillery rind the infantry were not co-otdivated ; the British bad by this time menufactuied guns as good as the German, as good SO the French, but not in a day or a month was it possible to lbod enough trained ruen to °partite them. Infantry officers who had never been infantry atheists until a brief time before could not by in- spiratioo learn the scientific side of the task ; they could die like sol diery, but the science of living like soldiers was less easy to acquire. Yet if one could ineesure the achievement of the British army by those elaborate and confusing curves that delight the statisticians, no one could mistake the upturn of the lioe. Each attack coo. a little lees, waa done a little more efficiently end with a gain In speed. The British army disclorred itselt from J ely to November engaged in learning a teak which it no longer underestimated or affected con tenupt tor.
