The Clinton News Record, 1919-5-22, Page 7� CAgqiiADAr S RECORD DAYS CLOSINGIN Sin ARTHUR CURRIE'S CTRL NARRATIVIi; • From, the Launching of the Enemy's Y Offensive on Mar. 21, 1918 to Cap. ture of Mons, Nov. 11, 19t9. Giving a full and concise aoeoun'I: of the losing battles of the great war in which Canadian arms played an important part, an official nrra- tive by Sir Arthur Currie, Command- er of the Canadian Corps, has been received in Canada, General' Currie tersely describes the events in the 1918 oempaign evhiclh ended in the Nov. 11 with the capture of Mons. "It is befitting," General Currie says, "that • the -capture of Mons should close the fighting record 'ofthe Cana- dian troops in which every battle they fought is a splendid page of his- tory,"' The official narrative covers about 100 pages, and commences with the launching of the enemy's great, at- tack on March 21st, 1915. Sir Arthur describes the tremendous pressure exerted on the Canadian troops at that time, and passes on to the pre- parations made by the Allies tb re- gain the offensive. After the battle of Amiens, in 'which plans worked out perfectly, it became apparent that strong enemy reserves had been sent forward to stem the Canadian ad- _ venue ,Six fresh divisions and a large number of light and heavy batteries had been brought forward and strong- ly placed, Ten Divisions Defeated. "Between August 8th and 22nd," Sir Arthur says, "the Canadian Corp fought against fifteen 'German divi- sions. Of these ten. were directly en- gaged and thoroughly defeeted,'pris- oners being captured from almost every one of their 'battalions. The five other divisions, fighting astride our flanks, were only partially enga- ged by us. In the same period the Canadian Corps captured 9,131 pris- oners, 1,090 guns of all calibres, and more than 1,000 machine guns' and trench mortars. The greatest depth penetrated approximated 14 miles; and an area of over 67 square miles, containing 27 towns and villages,' had been liberated. "The casualties suffered by the Canadian Corps in the fourteen days heavy fighting •amounted to: Other Officers. ranks. - 126 1,688 9 ;486 444 8,659 Tota, 579 10,783 "Considering the number of Ger- man division engaged and the re- sults achieved, the casualties were very light." "Flushed with the great victory they had just won, and fortified by the expeo fence acquired, , t11 ranks, of the ' Canadian Corps were ready for the nothing task." Sir Arthur de- scribes in detail the movements of his troops on the eve of the battle of Gambrel. On September 2 the attack against the Drocourt-Queant Iine was Munched. .Individual Bravery of Men. "To stem our advance and hold the Drocourt-Queant line the enemy had concentrated eight fresh divli- stens directly opposite the Canadian Corps, but the unparalleled striking power of our battalions and the indi- vidual bravery of our men 'had smashed all resistance." Then for a time the men rested, and on September 27 the attack was again Paunched, goring well from the very first.. 'From August 26 to October 12 'the Canadian Corps had advanced 23 Miles, fighting every foot of the ground and overcoming the most bitter resistance. In that period the Canadian Corps had engaged and de- cLeivaiy defeated 31. German divisions. "In this, the Arras-Cambra,i bat- tle," 'Sir Arthur states, "18586 pris- oners were captured by us together with 871 guns, 1,928 machine guns and many trench mortar's. Over 116 square miles of French soil, contain- ing 54 towns and villages, and in- cluding the city of Cambrai, were liberated, The severity of the fight- ing --•and the -heroism of our troops may be gathered from the casualties suffered between August. 22 and Oc- tober 11, which are as follows: Other • Officers. ranlss. Killed 296 4,071 Missing 18. 1,912 Wounded. .... 1,230 23,279 'Total , 1,544 29,262 Then followed the great advance form Douai to Mons, the spectacular nature of which is hest illustrated in the statement that in one month,be Killed Mdssi ng Wounded tween Octo'Uer 11 and November 11, the ..Canadian Corps advanced to li tot8'l depth of 91,000 yards, (about 67 ino. h tp!iles) thx0ugh a country which the enemy had destroyed 'bridges and roads and flooded large .areas to further impede our progress. Captured 229 Towns. From the ttime the offensive really cemmcnced, on August 8, 'till the ar- mistice took elect en Novelrrber 11, the following had been captured: Prisoners .. , . . , '31;637 Guns, heavy and field.. , , . 623 Machine guns 2,842 Trench mortars 3;36 Over 000 square miles of territory and 228 'cities, towns and villages had been liberated, :needing the cities of etCnlbrai, Detrain, Valenciennes and l4lons, From August 8 to 0et0 be r 11, not lea's than 47 Gerrnari divisions had been engaged .and defeated by the Canadian Corps, that is, nearly a quarter of the whole German forces on the Western feont.. After Oetob- er 11 the disorganisation of the Ger- man troops on our front was such that ' it was difficult to determine with exactetude the importance of the elements of many divisions 'engaged. Sir Arthur touches on the question of demobilization. He had noticed a general feeling among the men that demobilization should be carried out by unfits rather than by categories. To ascertain definitely the desires of the eons, a conference was held at Mons on Nov. 23, at which all avail- able divisional commanders and heads of services and branches, were pres- ent. All unanimously agreed that it was most desirable to demobilize the corps by units. As the outcome of this consultation a letter was sent to the Minister of Overseas Forces of Canada, embodying the sentiments of the Canadian Corps. What Has Britain Done? What has England done?

In this con- nection -it is intoh'estng to read the re- markable letter written by the doom- ed nurse on the eve of her execution, October 12, 1915, to her nurses et the 17oole ]3eike d'Ilflrmiores Diplonlees in Brussels, Belgium, In it Miss Cavell lneetions the eight years in which she was directress of the • school, and, in words surcharged with pathos, she ut- ters her farewell as an eloquent testi- mony to the nobility of some of the, heroic women who fell a victim tp Ger- man ruthlessness, It will take rank in history as one of the most remark- able documents left by the great war Tho letter, which was originally written in French, is translated as follows, dated October 11, 1915: "Prison of St, Giles, Bruseels. "My dear Nurses: I am writing to you in this sad hour to bid you fare- well. You will rennemoor that Sep- tember 17 brought to an end the eight years of my direction of the school.

A vast: ad- vance has been made since then; and now the company 1)05505005 a Floral Department with headquarters at Windsor Street Station, Montreal, and a Morel Committee which embraces members from the Eastern and West- ern lines, It is under the guidance of this department that the various sta- tion Blots and other proportles.of the company are cleared up and beauti- fied. Thousands of packages of flower seeds, bulbs, trees, and shrubs, and large quantities of grass seeds and fertilizers have been distributed dur- ing the last few years to station agents, section foremen, caretakers of round houses; and all employees liv- ing on the property of the cofnpany. Travellers on the thee observe the happy results achieved.' The cultiva- tion work is done in all cases by the employees themselves, who in most cases acquired the art of amateur gar.' dening by taking their lessons from leaflets issued by the Floral Depart. Ment. The best material is always provided. Ainougst the varieties of trees supplied are: Maple, birch, beech, poplar and catalpa. Sonne of the shrubs are: weigelia, berborries, laurel leaf willow and sumac. Peren- nials distributed are: Oriental pop- pies, iris, phlox, veronica, gaillerdia, larkspur, columbine, sweet william, and pinks. Bedding plants used in- clude: geraniums, coleus, cannas,pan- sies, asters, verbenas, petunias, and castor oil plants. Standard seed pack- ets --sent out contain: Nasturtiums, alyssum, mignonette, sweet pens, phlox and ]coelia. Ferns and house plants are given to the larger sta- tions. The establishment and main- tenance of the gardens and selection of the seeds, bulbs, and plants are supervised by MIr. B. 114. Winnegar, forester of the company. The encouraging influence of flower growing on the C.P.R. during the last thirty 1 a measure has n a large assisted in the inauguration of floral societies all over the country. There are hundreds of C.P.R. officials con- nected with these societies, and most of them received their first lesson in flower culture at the C.P.R. hewer beds. Flowers have improved the railway stations, and inspired by the Beauty of the stations, residents of the towns leave planted 'flowers and improved the appearances of their homes. In every division of the C,P.R, prizes are given every year f0r the best displays, and many of these ama- teur railway gardeners have tried their products with success against all corners at the big Canadian and American flower exhibitions. ATE WHALE FOR CENTURIES. Japan Has To•day't'fie Largest Whal- ing Company in the World. For hundreds of years whale meat has been used for food In Japan, says "Asia." III the earliest books of Japanese history, there are emulate of the capture of whales with nets and the ceremonies and feasting which followed a successful hunt. But whale meat.did not become a really important factor in Japanese daily. Life until about twenty years ago, when modern shore whaling was in- troduced into the empire. The Japan- ese had watched closely the develop- ment in Europe of the harpoon gun and the swift little steam vessels with which whales could be taken in great numbers, and the Toyo Hogel Kabut- hills Kaisha• (Oriental Whaling Com- pany, Limited) was eventually formed to ca117 on operations in Japan. To -day it is the largest and most progressive •wheling company in the world. When once fairly launched upon the new venture, the Japanese proceeded in a characteristically thorough way. They scoured from Norway the finest equipment obtain- able, and hired the most expert whale - men to teach them the•nhodern meth- ods of killing and preparing whales. ;Moreover, their efforts did not cease here, for they took not only the best from Norwegian methods, but introduced improvements adapted to their own special needs, Ilad ship's anchor fall on niy knee and log, and knee swelled up and for six days 1 'could not move it or get ,help.
