TWO ARMY CORPS TO BE TRAINED IMMEDIATELY.
THE FRONT LINE TO BE KEPT AT FULL STRENGTH.
Ottawa, August 30
Mr Hughes announced that the Canadian Government will immediately begin to train two additional army corps with the object of sending reinforcements continually to the front. Despite any losses, the Canadian troops will be kept continually at their full strength. Boulogne.—An old French seaport, in the department of Pas do Calais. 19 miles S.S.W. of Calais. It is popular with the English people as a watering place and there are usually so many English in the town that it has an English appearance. A lofty monument marks the site of the great camp formed by Napoleon I. in 1804 in preparation for his proposed invasion of England. It was also to Boulogne that Louis Napoleon repaired in 1840, when ho made his abortive attempt to assume his uncle’s position as Emperor of the French.
