Usually the average American is
Fourth of July, when fireworks and
sometimes bumptious oratory are
features of the day. 1t is our nations
birthday and appropriately America
rejoices. But this year, judging from
the cables that are stiH coming in
from all parts of Europe, our annual
jubilation is something more than ma
tional. France, for example, made
the day holiday while in Paris hun

Russia's Return to War.

The world, outside of Germany and
its allies, will rejoice at the coming
back of Russia into the war;. The eff
fectiveness of it's renewed, fighting
against Germany and Austria shows
that the people of Russia can fight
without a Gear and should give them
great courage in the organization of q
government. In. going
to the front and actively planning the
attack, A. F. Kerensky, minister of
war, has become not only a national
figure, but an international charac-
ter. sesn .es.=. ~ - i,.l.
A@Of course, Russia 8 troubles are not
all over. There may be further. re-
action and Kerensky may lose his con-
troll of affairs leading to further con-
fusion and uncertainty. But it : is
heartening to know that Russia has
decided to take UP the war again and
everybody will hope for its continued
success and steady progress toward a
popular and stable government.

The latest news from China is
rather encouraging because it shows
a real force in that country ready to
fight for a republic. The southern
part of China is strongly opposed to
the restoration of the Manchu dynasty
and the northern part is. divided.
This indicates preponderance of
sentiment for the republic The great
need in China is real national feel
ing. a determination to make it. a
great power under one government
The crisis may develop such a nation
al ideal and it may open the way for
Japan to get stronghold in that
country. If the latter happens of
course the greatness of China is lost,
but we hope it will not. and that we
shall see in the near future a greater
and more modern China.

1t certainly looks as though Ger
many was steadily losing ground in
the great war. She is already de-
feated on land, and the only danger
Gus weapon she possesses today is the
subma rine. The submarine is losing
some of its terrors. It may continue
to sink merchant vessels improperly
armed, but the fact that American
transports bearing American troops to
France were twice attacked by Ger
man submarines without the loss Of a
single life and the destruction Of at
least one, submarine shows that war
ships can protect themselves. 1t is no
time, however, to ease up the attacks
against Germany. She will commit all
the destruction possible before she
gives up the fight, and, this country
may receive some of her destructive
blows. But America can be of real
help in the finishing blows and we
hope she will be.
