Gazette says the situation Of the coun-

THE WAR SUMMARY

Heavy artillery actions are again in
progress on the Flanders front. Lon
don's official report today speaks OF a
strona bombardment of the new British
positions on the main Passehendaeie-
Gheluvelt ridge, south of Broodseinde
In the light Of previous experience this
may be viewed as indicating German
counter battery work against the in
tensive British artillery fire in progress
preparatory to another push.
The British artillery now has SUI
perior positions from which to work
as there must by this time have been
ample opportunity for the heavy guns
to be put in position on the dominating
high ground taken in the recent ad-
vances. 1t thus seems probable that

lation. as the continuation of har'
storms not only keeps the ground il

The Litany Of The 'POiIu'
(Seleated)

1t is neither a pRan of civiliza-
ton nor a hymn Of hate. 1t is
no vainglorious boast like the
German "Gott Nit Uns!" for the
poilu is like the Englishman and
American in his hatred for high
sounding phrases. The Litany
of the poilu is a trench jest, said
to be very popular along the
Aisne, a little humor aimed to
break the supense and strain of
waiting nnder shellfire, saying
nothing about the objects of the
war or the purpose of the SOL
diers, because those are taken
for granted.
AS we read the Litany, which
is printed in the Kansaa City
Star, we are reminded of the old
Campers S Creed "If you can
help it there's no use kicking
about it and if you can't help it
there's no use kicking about it.
Grin. +" The same idea in the
conditions of trench-lief becomes:
Of two things one is certain:
Either you're mobilize or YOUR
not modified.
If you're not modified there
is no need to worry; if you are
modified, Of two things one is
certain Either you're behind
the lines or you're on the front.
If you're behind the lines there
is no need to worry; if you're on
the front, of two things one is
certain: Either you're resting in
a safe place or you're exposed
to danger.
If you're resting in a safe place
there is no need to worry; if
you're expose to danger, of two
things one is certain: Either
you're wounded or you're not
wounded.

q 1t is argued that labor
unions have no right to strike
during war times. For sake
of the argument, granted.
But, members Of the labor
unions have not enjoyed
having their wages raised in
proportion to the advance in
prices Of food stuffs, cloth
ing and general household
expenses. Then, what do
you want them to do? Why,
work on, of course. Labor
unions are pretty we'll organ
lied and affiliated. If prices
of the necessities of life,
especially of food stuffs, are
n OF doctored downward,
watch the fur fly.

q Col. Theodore Roosevelt
and the Snowflake Herald
are in exact accord on nearly
every question of political
economy. Mr.. Roosevelt's
recent speech, delivered on
the 18th Of June at Lincoln,
Neb. was full Of that Ameri-
can spirit so characteristic
of the Rooseveltian type. He
scored the peace at any price,
pacifists, watchful waiting
ties with all the vim of his
soul. He showed how utter
ly foolish it was to prolong
the necessity Of taking action
against Germany, t h a t
watchful waiting was only a
political catch-word that
could be twisted into mean
ing that it would keep us out
of war, that only a little
time proved to be false. Mr..
Roosevelt realizes what war
means. He saw what this
nation should do when the
Lousitania was blown up,
and he saw what it would
cost this government to wait
go into a state of somnam-
bulism Of watchful waiting.
Quick and drastic action
against Germany at the be-
ginning no doubt would have
averted war with Germany.

g From a trade journal we
note that a newspaper man

can't please what will it take
to please him? If he had
said "disgusted with anti

coming.

q Mexican bandits came
near making another 'Co-
lumbus, N. NJ" raid on the
18th, inst. at Ysleta, Texas,
and no doubt would have
had they known that there

soldiers at that place. The
timely actions of the three
soldiers frightened the brutes
away and saved the lives of
women and children, law
abiding citizens, and per
haps the town from being

If you're not wounded there is
