LONDON, July 99.-"Are we
down hearted? NO!"-with a
heavy accent on the no"
This is the slogan of British
football fans in the bleachers Tor
the English equivalent thereby
when the home team appears to
be getting the worst of it.
Since the failure of the Anglo
French spring offensive in Fland-
ers, the disastrous defeats of the
Russians, the news of the unsat-
isfactory progress of the Oar
danelles campaign, the develop
ment Of the Fisher-Churchill scan
dial, the Kitchener row,
and the disclosures regarding
Britain's w0eful lack of the i'm
plements of warfare, eliminating
in the disruption of the cabinet,
this attitude of the bleacherites
has become the attitude of the
British public.
And when the British public
says it is not down hearted it
means 1t. Proof of this lies in
the splendid fashion in which the
workingmen of the nation have
answered the call for industrial
reinforcements (bear in mind
that so per cent of the British
public consists of workingmen,
their woman and children); also
in the marvellous response to the
prime minister's appeal for an
adequate supply of silver bullets.
Never in the history of any ma
ton has a popular war loan met
with such success.

One Year of War
AS SEEN IN FRANCE.

PARIS, July 2O.-Gen.
Joe Jeffre must be enumer-
ated among the great French
successes of the first IL
months of the war.
Joffre already deserves the I'M
dying gratitude of his country If
he never strikes another blow.
He refused at Charleroi to sac
rifice his men for a brilliant but
temporary success though he
must have known the country
was waiting for him to make
good; he ordered that soul-sick-
ening retreat before a superior
foe when he knew that every
heart in France was weighted
down by the doubt concerning
him and his army; he patiently
sought and seized the opportunity
he was looking for, then Instant
ly transformed the swift German
advance on Paris into a disorder
ly retreat; he stopped short the
mighty second German offensive
in the west against the channel
ports and pinned his enemy down
for long winter trench cam
paign where he held the advan-
tage; he won the confidence of
his men, individually the most
intelligent soldiers in the world,
giving them reason for their
cheerful courage which never
faltered even on coolest, wettest
mid-winter days.
Lastly, but by no means least,
he SO handled his resources in
material and men that now, at
the beginning of the second year
OF the war the French army is
the finest fighting body in the
melee. Joffre was the one man
in Frances 40 million for the
job.
And at that, Joffre was an &C.
cident!

BERLIN, July 29.-In the
western campaign Germany met
new conditions of modern war;
fare and overcame them before
the enemies were able to do SO.
In the eastern war area old
conditions of fighting have pre-
vailed throughout the IL months,
and Germany again has shown
that she is as skilful with the
old as with the new.
The more valuable territory
which has fallen to German arms
in this war Is Belgium and north
ern France. These conquered dis
tricts are far more wealthy than
are the captured Polish and Bal
tic areas. Yet, without doubt,
the chief glories of the German
armies have been won in the east.
Warsaw has not yet fallen,
but instead the Germans
have captured Russia's great
Baltic fort of Libau, which
is second I'm Importance only
to Warsaw and Riga, as an
eastern objective. The Hal
tic operations, i'm fact, would
be considered a worthy rec
ord of the years warfare
against Russia even II Moth
ing else had been accom-
plished on that side of Eu-
rope.
Second in importance among
successes against the Slavs is the
freeing of Galicia. This campaign
is ranked in Germany as an Of
fensive one, differing from the
rescue of East Prussia, which was
defensive thrust.
The winning of Galicia has
bound Austro-Hungary closer to
the German empire, and has ban
ished all hope among the allies
of enticing Vienna or Buda Pest
into making a separate peace.
Fully as important, too, the
Galician campaign has been the
eliminating influence which is
preventing the neutral Balkan
countries from entering the war.
Perhaps when the historians
begin to write about the events
of the past year, they will rank
above everything else in import
ance, the Influence which Ger
many's mighty victories in the
east has had on the Balkan states.
II the three southeastern neutrals
had joined the allies, earlier in
the war, when Russia's strength
was at it's full, Germany doesn't
like to think about the possible
consequences.
