Though only men of the best physique can War the strain, the British, Australian and New Zealand troops are still quite untired and reluctant to’ be relieved. They can be seen-dashing forward and cutting off tho, retreat ’of ' men, transports and guns. . IE is a wonderful sight to see our. soldiers .trooping forward without noticing hundreds of Germans, eager and anxious to surrender. One of the boldest- strokes on tho Australian front was tho wading and swimming of the Ancro in the night-time, below Graudcourt, '.and the. subsequent unsupported advance : eastward. Groups reached Pys and were entirely surrounded by Gormans, who wore too Scared to attack by" that time.
