"YANKS'' FAST ACQUIRING
TRENCH VERNACULAR

According to the stories told by
Americans recently returned from
Europe, the "Yanks," as the soldiers
prefer to style themselves, are rap
idly picking up the slang used by the
British Tommies in the war zone, and
appear to like it.
Fed up" is one of the favorite ex-
pressions, and IL used to depict the
disgust of the speaker with the
world in general or any subject in
particular, such as oatmeal porridge
for 100 days straight or 100 days
continuous rain.
Another expression adopted by the
American troops abroad is wang
ling" To "wangle" is to wheedle
something out of a person which he
would not voluntarily give. For ex-
ample, Tommy says to his mates In
of rum today from the canteen SER
geant." or THE sergeant major want
ed to give me a fatigue job, but
wangled 1t all right" When a sol
der succeeds in wangling something
out of his superiors he tells his chums
that he clicked" The term wash
out" used by the aviators, has been
generally adopted by the Tommies to
describe something that has to be
done all over again. "A defense bar
rage" is to cover mate in his alb
sence for some fault that he has COM
mitted, and a "barrage attack" is to
defend a friend when he is attacked
in force. The word "Cheeryo," as a
greeting or a short toast, has been
adopted by the American naval Off
GERS and men in Europe.

PERSHNG URGES SOLDIERS
TO WRITE HOME OFTEN

The War Department has made
public general order. issued recently
by General Pershing encouraging
members of the American expedi-
tionary forces to keep mp cOrrespon-
dence with their relatives and friends
at home. The order said:
Il. Duty to ones country does
not end on the parade ground, nor
even on the battlefield, but consists
in doing everything in ones power to
help win the war. To write home
frequently and regularly. to keep in
constant touch with family and
friends, is one OF the soldiers most
fathers will suffer il they do not hear
often from sons fighting in France.
In the present large companies 1t Is
not possible for ofYicers to write let
tiers for their men and every man
must do 1t for himself.
"2. When no letters are received
from overseas. the greatest distress
is caused to those at home. They
either feel that letters have been
written and lost en- route, or else they
imagine all sorts Of evils, such as
sickness, wounds. even death. Both
are bad for the active militant spirit
which every true American man and
woman must possess II our army is
to obtain the real victory that all so
earnestly desired.
"3. Every one in the United
States who has son or brother in
the American expeditionary forces is
proud of him, is constantly thinking
of him. Is anxious to hear from him.
Letters home will bring many letters
in reply. and the closer home ties will
have potent influence for good, both
in France and the United States. All
officers should realize this fact, and
both by encouraging their men and
providing them with the proper IA
cilities, do everything in their power
to interest them in this vital question
OF writing home"
Trench and camp. ([Admiral, Md.) 1917-1919, 1918-06-27

Discussing the problem of the
soldier and the way to victory, Gen
eral Ferdinand Foch. commander-in-
chief of the Allies armies. recently
wrote as follows:
Modern warfare, to arrive at its
end and to impose it's will on the
enemy. recognizes only one means
destruction of the enemy's organized
forces.
War undertakes and prepares
this destruction by battle which
brings about the overthrow of the
adversary, disorganizes his command,
destroys his discipline and nullifies
his units as far as their fighting
power is concerned.
"Our first axiom must be that COM
pletely to achieve its object q battle
must not be purely defensive. A
purely defensive battle, even we'll
conducted, does not result in victor
and a Yanquished. 1t is simply a
game that must be begun over again.
Prom this it is an obvious corol-
larry that an offensive, whether
started at the beginning of an action
or whether it follows the defensive,
can only give results, and in conse-
quence must always be adopted at the
finish.
ITO maintain our position is not
synonymous with being victorious
and even prepares for a defeat, if we
remain where we are and do not pass
to the offensive To fix the direction
of attack, to guard against the plans
of the enemy and prevent him from
carrying out the same manoeuVre, we
must undertake to carry on and sus-
tain numerous combats, each with de-
termined aim.

The Archbishop Of York Pays
High Tribute to United States

The Most Reverend Cosmo Gordon
Lang, Archbishop OF York and Pri-
mate of England, who recently visited
this country, said in statement re-
garding his American tour:
"a word needs to be spoken of dis
appointments and delays. Our friends
across the ocean are far more sensi-
tive to them than we. 1t is not any
taunt that is needed, but rather in
creased appreciation of the greatness
and skill with which they had planned
their help and the increasing measure
with which their plans would be full
filled.
That great and generous people
who received me with a warmth OF
welcome shall never forget, are say
ing to you: We are coming to stand
by you till together we have yindica-
ted the peace and freedom of the
world and secured 1t for our children
We say. 1t is hard to hold on. hurry
up!' They reply: 1t is worth hold
ing on; we are comingi'"
Trench and camp. ([Admiral, Md.) 1917-1919, 1918-06-27

But since there remains no doubt
that decisive attack Is the very key
store of a battle, all other actions
which make up q battle must be en-
Vfsaged, considered, organized. pro-
vided with forces in the measure in
which they will prepare, facilitate
and guarantee development of de-
cisive attack characterized by it's
mass, its surprise, its speed, and for
which, in consequence, it is essential
that there shall be the maximum re-
serve force possible of troops OF
manoeuvre. The reserve-that is to
say the prepared bludgeon-is or
gained and kept carefully instructed
to execute the single act of battle
from which results are expected.
namely, the decisive attack.
Reserves must be husbanded with
the most extreme parsimony SO that
the bludgeon may be strong enough
to make the blow as violent as pos
sible. Let loose at the finish without
any lurking idea of saving them, with
we'll thought out plan for winning
the battle at point chosen and de-
termined, reserves are thrown in all
together in an action SURPRISING in
violence and energy ali other phases
of battle, an action with proper char
acteristics- surprise, mass and speed.
All our forces really participate,
either by preparing it or by carrying
it out.
I'm this, our supreme aim, we must
not be deceived by appearances. Al
though theory fails when applied by
feeble hands and when accessories
obscure the main principle. history
and reason show US that in battle
there is single argument which is
worth while, namely, decisive attack,
which is alone capable of assuring
the desired result-the overthrow OF
the adversary"

The long and narrow PLAINS OF
THE SAONE AND THE RHONE owe

The long and narrow PLAINS OF
THE SAONE AND THE RHONE owe
their Importance to the manufactur-
ing center of Lyons, and to the lines
OF communication which follow this
route from northern France to the
Mediterranean. The plains of the
6aone are primarily agricultural, with
not summers and fairly long and cold
winters. The vine, wheat, corn, cat
tie and sheep are the important prod
ucts. Lyons, at the southern end of
the Saone plains, is an important
commercial center, because it is at
the junction of the Saone, the upper
Rhone and the lower Rhone routes,
and 30 does business with the north,
the east and the south. Lyons also
Is an important manufacturing CEN
ter, using the silk raised in southern
France and northern Italy to make
the fabrics for which France is noted
the world over. The valley of the
Rhone is narrow, corridor-like de-
preston in which flows a stream too
swift to be of much use for naviga-
ton. But though the stream is of
little value as highway, the valley
has been and still is of the greatest
Importance as comparatively easy
passageway, hemmed in on one side
by the Alps and on the other by the
Central Plateau. In the remote past
the PhOenicians penetrated via the
Rhone valley into Gaul. Later, Med
iteTranean civilization, and still later,
Christianity, entered France by this
route. Today the northern regions of
France have contact with the Medi-
terranean part of France by way of
this valley. The important railway
from Paris to Lyons and Aarseilles
follows this line.
THE MEDITERRANEAN REGION
Of France is q unit clearly marked of
by the Alps and the Central Plateau
ON the north and by the sea from
which it takes its name ON the south.
Its physical characteristics are differ
emit from those of any other part of
France and consequently the eco
nomic activities OF the people are in
large part different from those of the
people of the rest Of France. The
climate IL characterized by hot and
dry summers, and by mild winters
with a moderate amount of rainfall
This winter rain comes for the most
part I'm heavy showers, so that most
Of the weather is sunny. Strong,
hot, south winds (sirocco) blow at
times in the summer, and In winter
there occasionally are boisterous and
cold winds (mistral) from the neigh
boring mountains. The streams are
small for most of the year, but at the
times of heavy rains they become rag
ing torrents. Forests and grassland
are rare. The dominant form of ma
tive vegetation is thicket composed

and myrtle. The typical cultivated

5000 MORE MOTOR TRUCKS

Orders for 5000 motor trucks for
the use of the United States Army
have been placed by the Motor Trans
port Service These trucks, designa-
ted as Glass B Standard" win have
capacity of from three to five tons.
They will be distributed as needed
through the various branches of the
army. Ten thousand of these Glass
trucks had previously been ordered
and are now in process of manufac-
ture and delivery.

plants are the vine, orange, olive and
lemon, the first deep-roOted, the 9TH
ers with leathery, evergreen leaves,
and all well adapted to the long, hot,
dry summer. Because of this type of
summer and of the consequent poor
quality of the pastures, cattle are
rare, but sheep are fairly numerous.
In general the Mediterranean re-
gion of France seems to be an area
little favored by nature, except that
it borders on that sea which was for
so long a time the center of the civ
ilized world, and which today plays an
important part in commerce. AS re-
suit of this position, the Mediterra-
mean region of France has played a
considerable part in the history of the
country. 1t is here that the Phoeni-
clans, the Greeks and the Romans
touched France, founded cities and
introduced their civilizations Mar

eastern and northeastern France, as
affecting the campaigns of the war.
The forested mountains of the Vosges
have proved a barrier to the Germans
The rough country of Lorraine has
been scarcely less difficult for them.
In this region there are several con-
centric belts of alternating uplands
and lowlands, with steep slope at
the eastern margin of each upland.
These steep slopes or scarps, each of
which overlooks a lowland lying be-
tween it and the next upland to the
east, make defense easy for the
French and offense difficult for the
Germans. The Ardenhes Plateau.
most of which lies In Germany, Lux
emburg and southern Belgium, has
blocked any movement of German ar
mics into France except by way of
two valley routes, the Moselle and the
Meuse, both Of which valleys lie well
towards the southern and northern
borders of the plateau.
Across the plains of the northern
half of Belgium and of northern
France, in contrast to all the country
southwark as far as the Swiss border,
movement Of an army is relatively
easy, SO far as natural obstacles go.
Thus it was that the main German in
vasion of France took place in the
north, even though this meant the
violation of the neutrality of Bel
GUM.
