nor the bloodiest, nor yet the most important
of the many engagements which will plunge
Europe into woe before this titanic struggle
is ended
1t is not only because the victory OF the
Germans has torn no irrcparablc rent into
tho lines OF the allies; 1t is not only because
the defeated have fallen back upon their
original positions; IT is not only because
their morale is unimpaired that this victory
is, not crushing or even decisive. Ii is be-
cause the spirit of the soldiers in the field
and of the men back of the soldiers is not
crushed.
The mercurial French are recovering from
their astonishment and fear. The Belgans
are still, as OF Old courageous in the face Of
defeat And the British? None who know
the history of that island race need ask.
But let the London Times give in words
the same answer the English have often
enough given In actions: Whatever be the
upshot, Great Britain and her allies will face
the outlook with doggcd determination. and
continue the war until the spirit OF Prussian
militarism is rooted out OF Europe. England
and Russia must resolve they will never
surrender TO Germany, hut will stick to her
as they stuck to Napoleon. until they pull
her down" There is TO be found in these
words no thought of eventual defeat There
is nought even of expectation of peace
through compromise. 1t is declaration
that Germany must be crushed.
If that is the spirit in which the British
are to wage this war-and it is the spirit in
which they have wagcd most of their wars
the inal result cannot he in doubt. 1t is
the spirit, too. Of Germany no doubt for
Germanys salvation depends upon victory
put Germany has not the reserve strength of
Great Britain, or even Of Russia. The re-
suit of the battle in Belgium is disappointing
to all true ncutrals. because it means the
prolongation OF the war But it means no
more than that
