LONDON, Jan. 27. Evorlaatlng pug'es havo bcon added to British Colonial history In tho battlo of the Somino. Available records of this great Btrugglu show that ovory ono of Britain's ovorscas contlngente has chosen somo particular elevation, valley, village or wood whoso namo will live like Amerlcu's Bunker Hill. Tho Cauadlans carved their nlcho of fame at Courcolotto. It was tho French Canadians hero who brill iantly carried out tholr part of tho general staff's set program and thou pressed on, storming tho fortress village, filled to tho brim with Ger mans. Competont military authori ties say it was simply Canadian valor and Impetuosity that put Courcolotto bohlud tho Allied lines wthlu an hour, whereas It had boon expected to hold out far a week. Historical ver sions of the battlo of tho Somcao can nover bo written without tho story of tho Canadians,' dash through and ovor tho complicated defences tho Germans had built at Courcolotto. The troops of dlmlniltlvo Now Foundland have selected a Novem ber day for annual observance. The sconu of Now Fauudlaud's triumph In tho Sommo atrugglo will probably bo named boforo many months. Hleroglyphlcal military maps de scribe tho scono as "F39c2.5 to 40A132". That's all tho location it Iiiib so far but what happened lu that tronch tlllod with Now Found land's enemies Is what Now Found land has to bo thankful tor, Tho thinned Now Foundland bayonets that reduced It to a ditch of doad fought counter attacks to a stand still while a German artillery bar rago smothered llfo on tho ground betweou them and tholr original lino. Troops working o ntho right In con junction with tho men from Now Foundland woro unable to carry their part of the trench. Tho victorious North American Islanders therefore fought tholr way Into ovor)'- comer of tho stronghold and cleared It. They hold tho trench and havo got It yet. Poxlercs Is a word that means a lot to the burly Australians. Tho Antipodal whirlwind which catuo up Ovlllors-ln-llolsollo and gained Its highest velocity In tho Bhell-scarred ruins of Pozlorcs will long bo re membered by tho forces who tried to keep tho village Even Australians glvo tho Germans credit for tho most extreme of cxtremo offorts to hold this koypolnt of tho rldgo that oven- looks tho Baupaumo plateau. But oxtramo offorts didn't stop tho Aus tralian galnts who fought with bay onets, bombs and tooth In and out of ovory houso In tho village Mag nificent phystquo Is what won Po zlorcs, said an authority from tho front, that udded to perfect cour age and a whole lot of determina tion. Delvllla Wood Is already a his torical South African name. His tory at Delvlllo Wood runs back to July 18, when tho South African fighters foil back out of tho wood on tho decimated ranks of tho Scot tish Highlanders who had held their wrocked tranches thoro for four days. Outnumbered six to ono tho Afri cans and their ktltod compatriots rallied, stopped tho enemy's rush, broke him and drove him back to a line which tho enemy has tried hut has nover taken, Delvlllo Wood Is bo firmly drlvon Into South Afri can history that It will never como out. The llttlo village of Flora figures most promlnont In New Zealand's history of tho Somme. Sweeping through this village, In conjunction with supporting troops, they bomb ed and bayonetted their way Into and up and down tho German main third lino and held their gains in tho face of desperato offorts on tho part of tho Germans to drlvo them J out.
