bought Of Germany these millions worth than the
Germans bought Of them.

The REAL TRIUMPH
from the New Yorf Trlbunel

Despite all assertions to the con-
trary, the victory Of the British at
Cambria was a victory Of the man and
not Of the machine. The chief element
In the success was the generalship
which was able 10 conceive and exc.
cute a surprise attack, and not the
employment Of mech;sllcal devices
which had already been tried, some
times with success and SOMETIMES with
failure General Byng and not the in
ventor Of the tank deserves the credit.
He has outgeneraled the Germans in
a conspicuous and soldlerly fashion.
As is usual afte. a very brilliant
achievement precious lot Of non
sense is now being written about the
Battle Of Cambria IL is being solemnly
asserted That new method OF war
has been invented. and dispatches from
Washington even go so far as TO hint
that General pershng was the inven-
tor Of the idea expressed along the
Scheldt this week Nothing could be
more ridiculous In point Of fact the
tank was used with very great sue
cess In the Battle Of the Somme In
September Of last year. On its FIRST

ture Of a whole series Of villages which
had heretofore deaed the British as
sault for many weeks, but never after
the first occasion was the tank able to
repeat its initial successes, because
the Germans advanced their field guns
into their FIRST line trenches. and field
guns were an adequate protection
against the tank, whose armor is suf-

Attack without artillery preparation
was tried In a number OF instances by
General Nivelle at the Battle OF the
Aisne This spring. II resulted In hide

Of an absence Of she'll holes and mine
craters, ana the enemy, taken by sur
prise, was swept or his feet, lost
many lines Of defence on a relatively
wide front and was helpless until he
was able to oppose a new concentra-
ton Of reserves and guns
When the Germans made their first
gas attack at "Wipers" in April, 1915,
they introduced one Of the most
sweeping changes In the history Of
warfare. As a result Of the gas attack
they gained some four miles on
wide front and temporarily opened a
breach in the whole Allied line in
Flanders; but within a matter Of hours
the British troops in France were pro-
vided with gas masks and gas ceased

POLK AND POsTOFFICEs.

From the Georgetown Journal.
Last week In this paper there APP
peared an article In the editorial cob
umns which Congressman Polk seems
TO think did him an Injustice There
was no reelection intended. We sue-
gested then, as we do now, that the
people OF this County expect him to
do all in his power to change the state
Of affairs by which an incumbent Of
a first second or third class pOstmas-
tership holds his position regardless
of the desires of the patrons OF the
ONCE, during Democratic supremacy.
We think Mr.. Polk Is and has been
opposed to this, for he gave out an in
teryiew which was published in the
Wilmington Every Evening on the same
date and in the same article in which
the interview given out by Senator
WolcOtt was published on the pOncy
Of the Postofllce Department with re-
latiOn to the disappointment Of these
po tmasters, wherein the Congressman
made his position absolutely clear and
uneQuNocally stated his opposition to
the policy adopted by the Postofilce De-
parlment in the matter Of re-appOint-
ment Of postlnasters without follow
ing the Executive Order Of the Presi-
dent requiring examinations, at the
same time making it clear that it was
not a personnel matter against any Of
the appointces but only opposition to
the policy adopted by the Postoflce
Department But get busy. Mr. Polk,
and make your opposition felt in
Washington We are not criticizlng,
We are only giving you helpful sug-
gestions.

SCHOOL CHILDREN AND the war;

n NE Of the resolutions adopted by the executive COM
~ mttee of the National Security League at recent
meeting Is as follows
Resolved That a national necessity and as war
measure we call upon every Board Of Education, ScnOo
Commissioner and school Committee TO put into the cur
rlculum Of the schools without delay as part or each
ds Actual tuition tue facts showing Why we are at war
with Germany the danger Of failure TO this country and
he duty Of every American TO support the conduct OF
he Loyalty and by service.
That proposal patriotic, praiseworthy and PRACTICAL
Il can be applied with comparative ease TO all the schools
In Delaware without appecably disturbing the present
,ourses Of study
All the children know the great war is on but many Of
them only imperfect understanding of why 1t Is
on and great things at stake in the conflict They
should receive precise information upon those points and
not be permitted grope in the fog Of partial engh-
ment or the darkness Of ignorance.
The war is the greatest world history. Those chill
dren are living when IL is In progress They see In the
streets OF Wilmington and the rural districts men In
uniform Those who are the railroad lines see
ranoads troops and munitions being rushed to secret
destinations. An about them they behold the fever OF
war activity But most Of them do not know precisely
what all about They should be taught and the ones
who should teach them the instructors in the schools
