LIMIT OF SHIPMENTS TO SOLDIERS.

Parents and friends in this section of American boys with the United States expeditionary forces in France will help to reduce the work of the over-taXed postal and express com panies' employees by paying attention to the order of Major General March acting chief of staff, limiting ship ments to the soldiers in France. This order reads:
 "In future, shipments of any ar ticles to members of the American Expediticnary Forces abroad will be limited to those articles which have been requested by the individual tc whom same is to be shipped, such request having been approved by his regimental or higher commander. Par eel post shipments will be accepted by the Post Office authorities and other shipments by express or freight con- panies only upon presentation of the above approved request in each indi- vidual case"

Such huge struggle as is under way on the other side is necessarily accompanied by statements that q moments reflection brands the pro- duct of excited minds.
 One item had it that HOO British CTS were attacked by 17,000 Germans. If this happened-as it probably did not-it was mighty poor maneuvering to let a thousand men become isolated and attacked by such larger force. The writer, however, didn't think of that-he was trying to show the dis parity of numbers between the Brit ish and Germans.
 Another report had it that the British didn't have enough men to stem the tide in the early stages of the contest and had to fall back for that reason. All along, however, we have been told that the British had 5,000,000 men under arms. In fact, one of the questione heard on the street has revolved this fact. The popular mind is summed up in the col loquial phrase, Where are they at?''
 Another question the great battle brought up takes into account the de- fensive value of guns. The British ar tllery certainly was as plentiful around St. Quentin as elsewhere, yet when strong infantry units attacked it some 600 guns, the Germans claim, exchanged hands. From this We judge that the value of artillery lies almost solely in it's offensive powers.
 This, by the way, is in line with the deductions several months ago oi certain American generals who an onymously expounded their opinions to Washington correspondents. Their contention was that the German front was not impregnable and that the way to take it was with overwhelming infantry attacks.
 Unfortunately the Germans have proven the correctness of the Ameri- can diagnosis though it would not have been unfortunate had the Ameri cans used the plan first. say next year.
 The Germans proved beyond doubt

Young Rawson had just had his first novel published, relates a mem- Der of the Boston Authors club. One morning he met an acquaintance of long standing, and after greetings were exchanged the budding author asked: "Nlck, I value your opinion highly, particularly because know it is always a truthful one. Now, want you to tell me caedidly what you think of my new book" The friend was silent for a moment. Then he said: "No, no, don't ask me, Rawson s.et us remain friends

that concentration of guns and men at one point, and the latter rushed atcad no matter what the slaughter, vii. have a tendency tc acquire the goal quicker than more conservative methods, which in the end might re- suit in just as great wastage of men. It was in exactly this way that the Japanese captured Port Arthur, at that time the greatest fortress in the world. It cost them four times as many soldiers as the Russians lost Hut nobody remembers that; they on- ly know that Port Arthur fell.
 There is great deal of talk going the rounds that the Germans did not attain their objectives. Probably they didn't. No one knows, because the ob- icctivc frequently depends altogether upon carly developments. A general is in 8 sense an opportunist, with his wits about him constantly to take advantage of every opportunity. If the line of the enemy stiffens at any one point it may weaken at another and new objective is immediately sighted. What the immediate object i've of Hindenburg is, is not definite ly known but the ultimate objective is Tarls-and the saying of the French at Verdun, "Thou Shalt Not Pass," still holds good. Hindenbuyg can dent the allied lines, but his ultimate ob- jective must remain unattained.
 Nervous tension during the west front. actions is terrific. The public pulse is shaky, Faces are drawn. The crowds on the streets are serious-fac- cd. There seems to be a feeling of suspense tingling in the very air. Ev- cry hopeful sign is eagerly seized upon, and a distasteful fact is some- times swallowed up in an agreeable possibility.
 Veterans of the civil war have held all along that they killed more men compared with the number engaged than the Germans and Allies have been doing on the western front; but it is likely that since the present bat tie started there are few who will cling to that claim. It is doubtful if the slaughter on the west front would be so tremendous were the armies in the open. The carrying of concrete de- lenses and radcubts costs many lives more than open fighting. The entire battlefront is one vast fortress, which accounts for the costly attacks whe) made on either side.
 The public does not swallow every thing, even about a battle. There are undoubtedly scores of statements in the newspapers that are "seen through;" and this is nothing derog- atory to the newspapers. The papers under the stress of such an event must print all there is to say or report about the great occurrence. Every editor knows that some things that go through his fingers, are of less value than truth would demand, that conjectures and wild guesses often get on the wires. Yet he is bound to give the public all there is an let them be the judge. Otherwise he would be talk ing chances of being charged with SUD- pression of important facts" just at time when he thought he was doing the public a great service. It's a won- derful game-running newspaper when great battle is in progress The men who are handling the event will talk about it to their grandchild- ren, if they ever have any.
