 May its stars forever shine. May their sheen in war guide her sons from afar
 To Victory's glorious shrine. The Flag! The Flag to the breezs again Is thrown. Its bars with victory's music written gloriously there. It bids us fight, Columbia's men, Until the world shall hear again The angels echoing refrain, Peace on earth. good will to men, Then here's to the Flag of the U. S. A.
 May its stripes forever enfold The hearts of mankind in true friendship enshrined, United in Liberty's fold.

The Austrian Fiasco

II only part of the news from Italy is true, the Austrian offensive is the greatest fiasco in mli- tary history with the single exception of that ex plot (which, by the way, is not historicaD of the king of France who
 Marched up the hill with twice 10000 men,
 And then marched down again"
 The offensive was an ambitious attempt on a hun- dred mile front, intended to crush and puverizc the enemy. It preceded by months of preparation. The Austrians were presumably overwhelming in numbers. The positions they had occupied since the drive of last October were superior to those of the Italians and their allies There every reasonable prospect of that s if the offensive had been undertaken by any of the other warning nations than Austria. But after it begun, all promise of vanished. The initial movement naturally ried 1t forward in a few places for a couple of miles. and there stopped It does matter whether the Austrans have retired routed, the offensive was failure of gigantic magnitude.
 It consistent with Austrian military opera lions throughout the war, and with Austrian military history from the defeat by the Swiss at Morgarten carly in the fourteenth century, through Sempach half century later through sadowa. Austria's territorial gains have been made by diplomacy by coalitions by divisions of spells, never by fighting and always to be lost in war. Since 1s49 when it entered upon a period of stabizaton it's position
 
 largely through the supporting influence of Germany
 In the present war, the Austrans unsupported were never able to make successful stand against the Russians who twice invaded Galica, attain Ing the ridge of the Carpathans. The Italians were teadly forcing them back, and had reached the fzonzo when the Germans last October to their vescue.
 Fighting alone and their initiative, they are probably the most incapable of soldiers though under German commanders or with German support, they have made, both the Russian and Italian fronts good showing.
 It is suggested in the dispatches of Monday that the Italian front may be the from which the heart of the central empires must be pierced. That iron, presents natural difficulties which are not n terposed the western front, but if there is no other force than the Austrans themselves can raise to oppose an invasion, that is the point from which Inc final blow at autocracy should be launched.
