HOW INDIAN TROOPS at dawn on May 10 successfully attacked and captured fur- ther heights east of the enemy positions at Amba Alagi, in Abyssinia, is told in a vivid account received in Simla yesterday from an Indian Army eye-witness.

The first two hills were taken without much resistance but after the capture of the third hill a heavy counter-attack was launch- ed, and our positions were fiercely bombard- ed by light mountain artillery and mortars.

as much as a dairy cow.

"The rabbits we import are dead ones. The difficulty about providing home-bred ones is that of obtaining the men to kill them." A certain amount of horseflesh was available for dogs, but the demand had not been very great."
