At the same time the enemy bejjnn

front between Lens and Arras, -,

Hack to Old Line
Tho British aro back where they
stopped in 1014 fiefore Ypres, having
J withdrawn from their advanced
j pests to their old lines of established
defense. The retirement was made
111 good order on Saturday.
1 To tho east the battle line now
swings a scant two miles from tho
ruined city. Yprcs is now virtually
, useless as a base, and its' evacuation
foreshadowed when the Germans
stormed Kcmmcl, teems imminent.

1 Vooi mezeclo, which the Germans
tookon Saturday only to be flung
out again, compelled a rearrange'
ment of the $ne above Yprcs. Voor
mezcele is almost duo south of Yprcs,
at the foot of a low ridge, and for tho
British to have remained in the bulge
northeast of Ypres would have been
courting disaster.
That the retirement was orderly
theie is no doubt Tho 'official re'
ports from London do not mention lJ
