ALL KINDS OF MEN FROM ALL
PARTS OF EARTH TOOK PART IN
MOST DRAMATIC
British Front in France, Sept. 20.
The most dramatic and picturesque
battle of the British army in all its
two years in Franco was fought on
September 15. Here is the story of
how all kinds of men from the ends
of the earth took part in this mighty
conflict.
In tho same dressing station this
week the correspondent of the As
sociated Press has seen Canadians,
Now Zealanders, English, Scotch,
Irish, New Foundiandcrs and Ameri
cans. These were some of tho men
of many countries who took part in
tho now historic battle and with them
there went into action those armored
motor cars, called "tanks," which are
to the credit of a quiet officer of en
gineers.
Many Americans in Fight
Tho correspondent went over the
ground which Canadians had taken up
to the edge of the village of Cource
lette. Bater they stormed the village.
He met Canadians who cams from
Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg and
Vancouver. But when he asked some
of them what part of Canada they
hailed from, they replied: "The same
country as you do—tho United States."
There were men with the accents of
Missouri and New England and oth
ers who on tho soil of France, hailed
one another in the French tongue
of Quebec.
"We got into a big show, all right,"
said the Americans, "and that is what
we came here for." These men who
had rushed to the attack of the ridges
of the Soranie against machine gun
fire and shells carried themselves by
all accounts in a manner worthy of
the traditions of the Civil war. It
was tho Canadians' first offensive on
any big scale. They had stood the
Bhock of attack at the second battle
of Ypres, at St. Eloi, Orrell hill and
Sanctuary wood and it had been their
fortune up to the present to stand un
der blows rather than give them. They
wanted their chance on the Sommc
to mako good as they said, and they
had it.
This rainy day one saw battalions
of them marching out from tho
trenches they had won and other bat
talions marching in. Those fresh
from the fight were plastered with
mud but triumphant. They had sun
dried stories to tell while the rain
dripped from their tarpaulins, of how
the "boys" had made good. The
wounded also drenched by the rain,
eagerly Joined in these stories. The
Canadians are known as tho "byng
boys" after the namo of their corps
commander, and also bv virtue of a
popular song In London entitled "The
Byng Boys are Here."
Rni't Brilliant Stroke
General Byng grasped the Idea that
the Canadians have Initiative. Just
there, as far as the correspondent
oould learn. Is the essential of the uni
versally admitted brilliant stroke
-which the Canadians dealt when It
oame their turn to play their part
In the colossal plan of the Sommo
offensive. In other words. General
Byng understood that given a goal the
men of North America would go to It
•with all the on err;' in them, ready
to take a pinch hit chance.
The correspondent went over the
ground to-dav where thev went tr, it
and saw where thoy stuck in trenches
under shellflre which they had gained
after their second charge and which
were not in the original plan. The
night before the battle the officer in
charge of that branch of tho front
GRANDMOTHER KNEW
There Was Nothing So Good for
Congestion and Colds
as Mustard
But the old-fashioned mustard-plaster
burned and blistered while it acted. You
can now get the relief and help that
mustard plasters gave, without the plas
ter and without the blister.
Musterole does it. It is a clean,
white ointment, made with oil of
mustard. It is scientifically prepared,
so that it works wonders, and yet
does not blister the tendercst skin.
Just massage Musterole in with the
finger tips gently. See how quickly
it brings relief—how speedily the
pain disappears.
Use Musterole for sore throat, bron
chitis, tonsilitisj croup, stiff neck,
asthma, neuralgia, headache, conges
tion, pleurisy, rheumatism, lumbago,
pains and aches of back or joint 9,
sprains, sore muscles, bruises, chil
blains, frosted feet, colds of the chest
(it often prevents pneumonia).

TUESDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG <s££& TELEGRAPH) NOVEMBER 7, 1916.
showed the correspondent the Cana
dian objective. They gained their
first objective in an uninterrupted
dash, absolutely on time. There was
the trench which the "Byng boys"
held 011 the morning of the fifteenth,
as the correspondent saw it to-day.
Behind it and ahead of it shell craters
were so thick that you could step from
one to another. Having taken their
objective their part was finished but
General ISyng decided, despite the
complicated time table methods of a
modern offensive, that he could go
further. The commanders of British
corps of all kinds, from cockneys to
the clerks, stocks brokers and farm
hands of the new army, made the
same decision. So they worked in
conjunction as everything in these big
moves must be co-operation and team
play.
They Got There
When the word was given the Cana
dians started for Courcolette which
they were ordered to take. Now the
village had been "less crumpled" than
any yet captured. There were some
rafters of roofs still in. position.
Through these streets to their new ob
jective, marked on their n\ap, when
these fighters of the new world, in
cluding men from as far South as New
Orleans as well as men from Nova
Scotia and Vancouver. They were de
termined to get there and make good
and they got there.
"\\ hen 110 word came back for some
time the stafT, sitting in the center of
the web of telephone and telegraph
wires over which was flashed the news
of tho progress of the great battle,
began to wonder if the Canadians
were in trouble. But presently they
got word that the charge had swept
beyond the village and that tho Cana
dians had been so busy digging in they
had not had time to send news It
was explained that they thought that
it would be taken for granted that
they had got to it.
Among those who "made good" say
those who are supposed to know the
facts, was a battalion of French Cana
dians the kind of men you see in
times of peace working their farms
in Quebec or bending over the benches
of a factory in New England. At one
place in the village the attackers were
held up for a time by a strongly forti
fied post which bristled with machine
guns. "Well," as one officer said, "we
did not have to tell the men what to
do. They stalked that strong point,
man to man. moving around it, and
got in."
Called "Tank" Offensive
Among tho men marching back
from the front line after relief was a
tall soldier with high cheek bones, red
skin, efcony hair and expressionless
features. He wss an American of the
Sioux type. "The German is some
fighter," said one Canadian, to con
clude the story, "and 110 has been
learning the game for a long time, but
on this occasion we had him going."
But the exploit of the Canadians is
only one of tho many chapters which
may be told now of what the soldiers
have morosely called "the 'tank' offen
sive,' having reference to the new ar
mored motor cans. There was a Bon
don division, comprising representa
tives of all classes of the great, city's
life, who were, told that they must
reach their objective in a given time.
And Tanks Did the Work
In front of them in High wood was
a fastness of machine guns which
neither the artillery nor the trench
mortars had been able to reduce. How
ever, it was the business of the Lon
doners to be on time in reaching the
given point on the man and to hold
on there until further notice. "These
orders were all very simple and di
rect," said one o' the Bondoners after
ward with a grim smile, "but those
Germans in the fort, knew that it was
a life and death fight and all that was
required of them was to nut their fin
gers on the triggers of their machine
guns when we charged. We left it to
the blooming tank. We had to take
chances of those machine guns shoot
ing into our backs if the tanks could
not do the job. But orders were or
ders ns we were taught when we left
our happy homes to go soldiering In
France, and we had to reach that on
fhe map. We reached it and tho tanks
wiped out "

were not going so well as at others.
The battalion whose luck failed
them In tlitw drive or. the six-mile
British front were driven back by the
cunningly arranged enfilading fire of
machine guns in strong points which
neither tho artilloy nor tank could
conquer. As the wounded from thesi.
baffled battalions came hobbling down
the shell-swept road they were cheer
ed by the news of successes at other
points.
Keep On Going
There was a spectacular moment
when, some time after tho battle had
opened, word ran down tho line that
the "guards were going in." The
guards are the crack regiments of the
British regular army and are steeped
in the old aristocratic traditions.
When they come to the offensive they
must show others the way through
although the body of a peer's son is
not less vulnerable to bullets than that
of a cockney. When they "went over
the lid," as tho Blang phrase Is for
mounting the parapet of tho trench
for a charge. It was tho supremo mo
ment for the guards to live up to their
traditions. They were to reach a cer-
tain objective in so many minutes and
then wait. But they did not wait.
They took their second objective in
the same rush. It was no matter if
the colonel of one of the regiments
stood ui> on a hillock and blew the sil
ver hunting- horn he carried in order
to halt them. The guards were off
and they meant to stretch a two-base
hit into a three-bagger, machine gun
fire notwithstanding, or how else could
they be the guards. When they reach
ed their final objective where they
were to have it out with the Germans
in as hard fighting as ever this war
has known, an Irishman in the Irish
guards exclaimed: "Is this as far as
thoy told us to go? Sure, I haven't
got my second wind yet."
More than once, facing counter at
tacks, the British havo gone out to
meet the German charges In the open
with the bayonet and the Germans
have done the same. All past records
In ferocity of fighting seemed to have
been surpassed during the latest Brit
ish advance. So freely was life given
and so wonderful was the courage
shown on both sides that the whole
I thing seems unreal to the spectator.
