The continuation OF the patrol at

western front in France and Belgium
indicates that. their line having been
heavily reinforced. the day is not far
distant when the entente armies and the
American forces will be asked to with
stand thrusts OF a more serious nature.
Gauged by the firmness Of the Brit
ish, French and Americans in meeting
the enemy assaults In the last few
weeks, and the feeling of optimism
that prevails from headquarters staffs
to the men In the trenches, u warm
reception may be expected by the
enemy when he launches his attack. In
the past fortnight. from Belgium to the
Swiss frontier, the Germans have es-
sayed minor attacks in nearly all of

they reached the entente trenches.

Everything in the art of modern

of frightfulness which the German
mind has invented. not omitting liquid
fire--has been tried against the Amer
leans, but nowhere has the enemy
been able to dent the front held by
General Pershings men. The Amer
leans have answered the German Of
fensive with great bravery, and, al
though they have suffered some cas-
ualties, they have made the enemy feel
the effects OF their guns and rifle fire.
