THE BILINGUAL DECISION.
Widespread public interest had been
shown in the deeisions: of the PrifY
Council, the validity of Regulation No.
17, governing the teaching a French
in the Shoos and the Status of the
Ottawa School commission, establieh-
ed by the Go4ument.
On the first question, the decision is
mat the regulation is valid, and the
Legislature has control over language
teaching in all the schools of the
prlsvince, public and separate. On the
mond point the Privy Council has de-
cided that the appointment of the Ot-
tawa School Commission, which teak
from the Ottawa School Trustees the
nanagement of their schools, was un-
conditional and therefore, not allowed.

VIE WAR SITUATION
Neither the heavy gales or torrenti-
al rains of the past week on the west-
ern front seera to be any impedr-
ment to the steady advance. of the Al-
ike. For several days past they have
been gaining steadily and on. Tues-
day the 'French made their greatest ad
vance, south of the Sorame, in weeks.
With overithelming force they seized
.all enemy positions along a two and
a half mile front including three vil-
lages. This remarkable success was
obtained in the face of furious gales
and took -the Germans completely by
surprise. This important Victory ser-
ibusly menaces the strongly fortified
town of Cliecalines, now held by the
Germans. In fact, that strongly de-
fended city is practically surrounded
by the French whose guns now look
down upon it from all the heights a-
round and. another advance like the
one on Tuesday will mean its capture,
and with its fall would follow a sweep
of the country to Peronne and would
practically sound he deatb knell of
that great stronghold. It now looks
as if the French were in a position to
in some of the most important vic-
tories on tills front. On the Brit-
ish front at the Somme, things have
been more quiet although Gen. Haig's
troops have improved their positions
greatly by driving the Germans back
from the seyeral points where the
Gerraan lines protruded into their
front thus -straightening their whole.
line. The Somme offensive is prov-
ing a greater blow to the enemy than
has thus far ever been suspected. It
has been o day announced that
ince the beginning of the offensive on
July lst, up to the first, of this month
that 72,981 Gerraans have been taken
prisoners by the French and British,
including 1,449 officers. Of these the
French captured 40,796 and the Brit-
ish 30,746. In addition to this 173 field
guns, 130 heavy gtms, 215 trench mor-
tars and 981 machine guns were cap-
tured. These figures readily show
that if the Germans continue to lose
men and material in the same propor-
tion during the weeks of heavy fight-
ing that will be carried on before win-
ter reduces the operation to a small
scale that by spring they will not be
able to withstand such a fierce and
, sustained offensive as the Allies have,
conducted this fall. Of course, the
end is not yet, nor will the Germans
Surrender, but there is no doubt but
that they are feeling the pinch. Fig-
ures are hard to grasp sometimes, but
to realize the raagnitude .of the Ger-
realm losses we have only to point out
that on the ,Somme front alone, Ger-
many has lost in prisoners, 'killed and
wounded, a force of men equal to over
half the Canadians now at the front
or in training in Canada and all in the
space of a few weeks:
On the Eastern. front the tide of
battle is also with the Allies, both
the Roumanian and Russian armies
having scored heat ily and dealt some
smashing blows against the AtTEtztO-
Gethan lines, and it would seem that
the offensive movement bath in Rou-
mania and against the Russians had
been definitely checked.
The situation in Greece is still in
chaos, the Greeks apparently, being
much more anxious to fight each other
than fight with or against the Allies.
