ENGLAND's BIT

America is now hitting the Ger.
man line hard. Cur allies are

Yankee fighters and superbly gen.
erOus in their estimates of the
value of the assistance they have
received from the United States.
There is just q chance that because
of this chorus of plaudits, we may
overlook some decidedly essential
facts. Although America is doing
wonders, we must not forget that
her allies are still bearing the
brunt Of the fighting. During the
month Of September the British
Army lost %, O37 men, Of which
total 1899 officers and 14,014
men were killed I'm action or died
of wounds. Americas loss for the
entire period Of the war from
April, 1917, to September, 1913,
inclusive, is 8, 16O killed I'm action
or lost at sea and 2,425 who have
died Of wounds. The British death
toll for the one month of Septem-
her, 1918, was 1888. Americas
death toll during eighteen months
Of war has tOtaIed only 1884.
These are good figures to remem-
Der when you hear the British and
French paying generous tributes to
the American fighting mc1. Don't
forget that our brave allies are still
