LIES SCARS.
They say tie world is round, and
yet

They say tie world is round, and
yet
often think it square;
So many little hurts we get,
From corners here and there,
But one great truth in life I've
found
While journeying to the west;
The only folks we really wound
Are those we love the best.
The man you thoroughly despise
Can rouse your wrath, tits true;
Annoyance in your heart will rise
At things mere strangers do;
But those are only passing ills;
This rule are lives will prove;
The ranking wound which aches and
throbs
Is dealt by hands we love.
The choicest garb, the sweetest grace
Are oft to strangers shown,
The Carelss mien, the growing face
Are given to our own.
We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeing guest
And deal full many a thoughless blow
To those who love US best.
Love does not grow on every tree,
Nor true hearts yearly bloom.
Alas! for those who only see
This cut across the tomb!
But, soon or late, the fact grows
plain
To all through sorrows test
The only folk who gives us pain
Are those we love the best.-Ex-
change.

will be equally successful. Given the speed
and success of the retreat, it should be.
Summing up, then, the situation as it
exists, we are seeing retreat from the
lines taken in September and October,
1914. We are seeing a retreat which is a
consequence primarily of the Battle of the
Marine. where the Germans missed their
chance for decision and direct conse-
ouence of the Battle of the Somme, where
the British and the French denied the
German line between Arras and Noyon
so deeply that it became necessary to re-
tire to a new front between those points.
We may see further extension Of that
retreat, so that the line runs north and
south from Laon, east of Scissors. to
some point west of Lille.
Such a retreat is purely strategical
Apart from the evacuation of the Lens
coal district, it would give the French no
land of value and the Germans can stand
on as good a position as they had before.
All along the point has been made by the
Allies that the possession of territory
itself means nothing, and on their own
statement it is fair to recognize that the
territory now abandoned by the Germans
las little military value.
Passing now on TO the second question,
What will follow from a retreat to the
frontier" one may say this: First of all,
such a retreat is unlikely because it would
mean the abandonment of great deal of
territory which has material value, large
cities, the entire railroad system Of North
orn France, the coal region of Lens, and
it would deprive the Germans of the ad-
vantage they possess in holding against
ultimate settlement a large and valuable
section of Northern France.
If such retreat takes place we shall
be bound to conclude that the Germans
are very short of men and that they have
made the retreat primarily to reduce their
line and thus to release men. Their front
would be shortened by not less than eighty
miles by such retirement, and this would
release perhaps half a million men. If such
a retreat is to take place we may expect
the Germans sooner or later to make a
stand on line starting about Lille, going
southeast through Valenciennes, in front
of Maubeuge, to Hirson, and thence to
Mezieres, on the Meuse, and along the
Meuse to the present position before YER
dun. Generally speaking, such position
would be based upon the old French cover
ing forts at the Belgian frontier. the posi-
