During- Wednesday we carried out

The weather has improved and the

be welded together as never before,
There is now no point of junction at

engagements of divisions, equivalent
to a mass of two and one-half million
men whom the enemy has already put
into battle. As a German division is
never withdrawn until it has sustain-
ed severe losses, on an average of
2,500, it is reaseneble to reckon__ h
enernYii- loss since the beginning of
the baftle at not less than 350,000.
The Germans began the offensiie
with a reserve of 650,000 in depots in
France -and at home. Behind these
there isonly the 1919-20 class, con-
sisting of youths, half of whom are
under 18. The enemy's genuine fight-
ing reserve is thus half exhausted be-
fore he has covered anything like half
the distance to his goakllis.reckless
employment of divisions has left him
with a total of 56 out of 206 in France
which have not yet been engaged. Of
these 12. are_ Landsturm divisions,
which cannot be used for the purpose
of -an offensive. The Germans- thus -
can have little hope that the remain-
ing 60 divisions can accomplish what
the first 140 failed to Achieve.
Already the Germ& staff is most
an.xiously realizing that their re-
serves of fresh troops are not

immediate attempt to take Ypres.
Experts, writing what may be con-

tion, say that nothing would be gain-
ed by the capture of the ruined city.
This may mean that the Germans will
turn their attention to some other part
of the front for a new effort, and the
bombardment of the lines near Mer-
ville and further east may be the first
step, in an attempt to force a British
retirement from the Arras -Lens sa-

lighting has 'occurred in this sector
in the past day.
_While waiting for the Germans to
make the next move, the allies•have
not been idle, All along the line
their patrols have been active, and
at Hangard and ViUers-Bretonneux,
before Amiens, they have taken
tactical positions from the Teutons.

forded good observation of the allied

-Pickering can now boast of
having a time service station, as
during the past week R,ev. Dr.
Marsh installed on a concrete
foundation his meridian transit,
h which the
time is taken from. the,. eaven y
bodies as they cross the meridian
from the east to the western sky.
Dr. Marsh has made a number of
observations to ascertain the exact
north and • south line, which is
termed the meridian. This -he has
now almost exactly. Also he has
determined very closely the longi-
ti‘de of his inetrnment, which is
'5 'hrs., 18 min., 8 sec. from Green-
•ivich-.- When the foundation has
got perfectly dry, and the instru-
ment in perfect adjustment, Dr.
Marsh will be able to get the time
time from the stars to one-flfth of
a second. In addition to the civil
time, he will record Standard time,
local sun time. -mean sun time and
sidereal time, the latter being
used principally by , astronomers,
explorers and sea -faring . men.
Many people think- the time is
taken from the sun only. The.
astronomer prefers the more dis-
tant_stars, although the sun is
often used.
