London. Jan. 10. When the wars I'M
innate history can a. last be written
fascinating reading will be found IN
the accounts Of how and why many OF
its military heroes lost their prestige.
If this war has furnished opportunl-
ties for rapid promotions and great
bonors. il has also brought about the
downfall of many leaders who for
mcrlv stood high in official and popu-
lar esteem.
So small matter as an overlooked
detail has caused the eclipse Of more
than one long standing reputation
The ability TO recognize and grasp an
onnortunity has also changed the
whole tide Of battle and carried some
officers 10 high pinnaclcs Of honor and
success.
Sir John French had pcnt forty
wears Of his life as soldier when. at
the beginning OF the war, he became
Gold marshal Of the British army IN
France and Flanders Now, after "over
sixteen month, Of severe and lncesSant
strain" as the War Office communIque
nuts II. he has been forced TO relin-
ousb that command. and hc comes
home 70 become Niscount French and
field marshal commander in chief OF
the troops stationed in the United
Kingdom. The change. it is officially
said came at his own instance
When General Jofre recently moved
M from the command Of the French
armies on the west front TO command
the entire French forces General de
Castelnau succeeded him in the former
nosition. General de Castelnau rs a
Younger man and is known among his
own staff officers as "the man of duty"
II is recorded that even when news
of his sons death in action was
brought 10 him he did not leave the
work he was doing al the time.
General Sir Douglas Haig. Sir Johns
successor IN France. is hfty-four years
old. nine years younger than his pred
ecessor and. in Freuch's opinion, IS
q "skilful. bold and decisive charac-
ter" lie assumes command of grow
ing army. which even now Is twenty
five times larger than Wellington com
handed az the battle of Waterloo. The
biggest lob a British officer has ever
