 But notwithstanding the enCourag- ing reports that are coming across the sea. we must not allow ourselves to grow OverCOnfident or forget the tasks that confront Americans here at home. Rather. the good news should serve as an inspiration to us to emulate the splendid example set by the boys at the front and face what lies before us with the same fighting spirit.

 Another dispatch aptly illustrates the temper of our boys when they come face to face with the BoChc. It vas during the first days drive that certain American unit, after having been forced to retire for distance, was preparing to launch counter attack. The French commander, upon learning of the plan, hastened to in form the American general that there was no great hurry about making the counter-attack, and that, besides, the men had earned rest. This was the reply:
 I've regret being unable on this Oc. casion to follow the COunsels Of our Nestors. the French. but the American flag has been forced to retire. This Is uncomfortable. and none of our sol diers would understand their not be- ing asked to do whatever is necessary to re-establish our positions-a situa- ton that is humiliating to us and un- acceptable to our countrys honor. We are going to counter-attack.

AM ERlCA'S FUTURE

Amerca's future hangs suspended by q slender thread of ships now stretching across the Atlantic. The allies have long borne the brunt oi our battle. If we are e h" the de ciding factor in this fight there must be men and munitions and food trans ported to the scene of conflict.
 Men, munitions and food must go from here There is an actual sur. plus of some foods in Australia. India and the Argentine, but to bring food from these remote parts would re- quire more shipping than we can spare
 That is why the enormous respon- sibility for feeding the allies is so largely ours. If instead of satisfying practically half their food needs. as was the case during the current year. We could send during the coming year their entire outside supply, if would mean the release or almost milllon and q half tons of shipping
 To do this would mean more strin- gent saving Last year our people voluntarily reduced their consumption about per cent. Even more may be demanded of Us another year.
 There is no time for such triviali ties as hard-and-fast food preferences. After the war is won the people of America may return to whatever fare they like best, if they wish But all that matters little now.
 The loyal women of the country are studying food values, learning to cook new dishes and fighting waste. The loyal men of the country are learning to eat whatever is set before them. thinking but little of old preferences and caring less
 Men and women alike have but one goal-to get ships enough to send over men. munitions and food. Shipping and food are the dominant factors in America's prosecution of the war,
