LONDON. Sept. 10.-(Central News

by the British Expeditionary force
from COMMANDMENTS Chief Sir John
French has aroused the following
comments:
Globe-"Sir John French has done
well to tell us how hard our men
were pressed at Mons and with what
peril and difficulty they cxtricated
themselves from the enlightenment Of

that we were outnumbered and driven

olute valor saved us from over
whelning disaster. These things but

glorious pages in the annals Of the

one more glorious than this, whereon

The Evening Standard-'These
were two critical times on the night OF

courage might have involved the

clear that there was some justifica-
ton for the hopes which were con-
fidently expressed In most OF the
German forecasts OF the war. that
Germany. through quicker mobilisa-
