mans were and kill them. They did
that very thing. They fought singly
or In small groups, performing amaz.
ing feats of individual enterprise and
capturing great numbers of prisoners.
When captured themselves, they
stubbornly refused to stay captured

and fought their way back to their
own lines, often bringing with them
captives taken on the way
In the parlance of the Australians,
whom our troops are said to resemble
most, they treated 'em rough The
Germans are said to be aggrieved at
the treatment accorded them, and the
failure of our soldiers to observe
some of the rules of military etiquette
such as to stay captured after the
German fashion, instead of breaking
away-but we can overlook that.
The war is not yet won, but It is
decided The decision has been rem.
dered in the fighting Of the past
week. The way our troops have
fought has settled it. The road is
still long and hard, but the end is in
sight We shall win, and win com.

IL may lead to revival OF the suppos.

them. But be that as 1t may, there is
no gainsaying the stimulating effect
of knitting needles on social speech.
1t is comparable to the ancient
masculine arts Of whiting shingles
and chewing tobacco, which, accord.
ing to theory recently advanced by
some philosopher, were responsible
for the entertaining conversation OF
Americans in bygone days.

thing to do with the other.
Some of the most fluent takers do
not seem to know even the rudiments
of conversing," with its progressive
development Of an idea or its unfold
ing Of sprightly frivolities." A mon
ologue is not conversation. Neither
is chorus of loquacity.
On due reflection, one may doubt
whether knitting, any more than
whiting or chewing. really benefits
conversation. 1t increases the output
but does It improve the quality?

THE "AurocHfR"

Among the new words that have
been put into service In the war zone
Is one invented by Americans. 1t Is
"autochir" and, as explained In an
American Red Cross bulletin, is the
name of special motor truck train
that carries Il compelte surgical hos.
pital to the front. The last syllable
Of this word is the first syllable Of
the old word for surgical, "chirurgi-
cal" The auto" needs no explana-
ton.
This particular motor truck train
Is interesting as an example of medi-
cal efficiency In the war zone. The
train Is composed Of l8 camions. II
carries a fully equipped tent hospital
Of 200 beds in knockdown form but
ready for quick setting up and use.
In one truck goes a complete oper-
ating room that can be set up, bolted
together and put In operation in a
few minutes. II Is followed by a ster-
ilizing room which can be backed UP
against the completed operating room
structure. In the other trucks are
carried double tenting, strong frame
work, floors in sections, window
frames, heating stoves and a diet
kitchen with full equipment
Special Red Cross construction
crews trained for this work go with
the outfit. Its mobility and the speed
with which 1t can be put. In operation
when II reaches It's destination makes
the autochir an important factor In
saving the lives OF wounded men.
The name may be awkward but We
use It with awe and admiration for
the sake Of the great usefulness OF
the travelling hospital itself.

"FRlTZS GOAT"

The military effect of the Franco
American victory between Soissons
and the Marne is great, but the moral
effect is greater. An army fights on
its nerve. Morale is more important
than numbers or weapons or ammu.
milton, or even food, and back of the
army always is the people. Luden.
dorff himself has said that wars are
won or lost by the morale of the civil.
ian population.
Viewed in this light, our victory as.
sumes value out of all proportion
to the visible results. We have taken
many thousand prisoners, many hun.
dred guns. scores of square miles. We
have stopped the last and most ambi-
tious OF German drives, and In all
probability prevented any further at
tempts on so great a scale. But more
than that, we have convinced the
German troops of our superiority; we
have undermined their confidence and
blasted their hope of victory. BY the
same token, we have blasted thu
hopes of the people at home, already
on the verge of despair; and that fact
Is fatal to German ambitions.
Every observer must have remark
