Nothing has been neglected which was likely to assist in the achievement of this sucers. All accounts from the front are unonimous in stating that even the tremen- dous artillery fighting in the Champagne offensiva was like the resting off of a lot of squibs when compared with the pitiless bombardment, which has been rolling thun derously through the Mouse Heights for the past week. The famous 12in, and 17in guns which have been brought back from the Russian and Serbian fronts to swell the chorus give added force to the tremendous pickaxe of artillery which has transformed the whole region, twisting and distorting its local geopraphy, tearing, ronding and throwing up hillocks, and digging crevasses obliterating trenches and field fortifications, with bursting shells.
