Mrmtwrs of (he IssocbUed mous numbers, nas been able to strike at two points on the lino with an overwhelming superiority of power. Lack of certainty as to where she would strike made it impossible to have at he point of contact an equal force to oppose her, and the fury and rapidity of her offensive under these circumstances of superior physical Advantage has compelled in each case a withdrawal. The uttack In l'lcardy pushed back tho battle front thirty-seven miles toward Amiens, but each day of Its progress enabled the allies to bring more men Into tho field of action, nd the drive was checked.

We must not forget that. With all the force that Germany could bring to bear on that section, she failed to attain her object. Then she turned to another place, and Is tiow repeating the same tactics with the same assembling of superior force. But her progress has been by no means as rapid as In the previous drive. There have been a number of reasons for this.

The character of the ground has made the advance more difficult for one thing, but the main reason is that they have met ti more stubborn resistance. Nevertheless, they have advanced, and they have acquired some positions of great importance. But the lines have not been broken. Tbe British army still confronts them, undefeated and undismayed. They have captured a few square tulles of ground, ground which, It must be remembered, they have for the most part previously held In this war.

But that Is not their aim. To achieve results commensurate with their tremendous sacrifices they must break tho British army in two and crush II between their forces and the sea on the one side and between the Ypres and the Amiens salients in the other. That they are far from doing yet. And human limitations will compel the Germans to slow up even us they did In the previous drive. They will lie checked again.

shall not puss llalg's men are fighting to the death on every step of the way back. They have not' been able to stnad immovable, but they have made each loot cost the enemy an awful price. Ami they are Mill intact. Moreover, re-enforcements are at huni. We do not know why the "great force" of France that Haig rc- leered to Ilio oilier il.iy has not yet come to their support.

II may he it has not yet nrrlved. It may be it is being reserved for a counter stroke at the opportune moment. That is In General Koch's bands. But the British are not fighting a "forlorn i They have their "back to the wall," it is true; but that is where tin light the best and the tide will turn. It Is a time for courage that faces the worst and defies it and defeats It.

It Ib our light they are righting and we must uphold them. Kven if disaster comes to them now It means but a lengthening of the war. Kngland will not stop, France will not stop, und we, never, unlll Germany Is beaten and thoroughly beaten. It is a gloomy day, but tomorrow Is surely coining. St.

The situation about Ypres is one to give concern to Kngland, to France and to us. It would be folly lo deny its seriousness. Hut we musl not penult ourselves to become dsl-cournged. Germany at Messine llidge is by no mean if near to victory as she was at Mods. The.

It Is necessary to withdraw our eyes from concentration on tho field of battle and sweep the whole horizon of war In order to get a proper sense of proportion. For several years the opposing armies have confronted each other on line approximately Ii-10 mi -u long.
