Daily Thought.
Shut not thy purse strings siways
against painted distress Charles
Lamb. "a.
The Washington herald., 1918-10-27

There is not one German division or
even unit involved in this battle
which to the crmGan command does
not represent a sacrifice to necessity.
THE line of the Meuse, prolonged
across Belgium to the sea, has often
been referred TO as a position emf.
nently desirable for the enemy TO re-
tire upon in the event OF a bad re-
verse-and the present Is a bad re-
verse. The Germans. however, have
shown no pronounced desire to avail
themselves of II, save perhaps as a
last extremity. because, though short
er and straighter on the map. It is
by no means a good line. II they
have maintained their elbow shaped
front as long as they could, the con-
tours OF the country offer a quite
sufficient explanation. The massif of
the Ardennes is great obstacle
The main German communications
encircle 1t, and II they were to be
kept linked up there had to be room
enough to the west Of the plateau.
On the line of the Meuse they would
be no longer linked up. or only i'm
perfectly. The substantial linking
would be thrown back along the
Rhine. Practically defense Of the
gap OF the Moselle would have to he
conducted each on its own basis.
There would be a far greater liability
to defeat in detail.
Besides, II there be one thing now
more certain than another. it is that
the enemy will not reach this line
save in a gravely weakened and dis
organized state. 1t is gratuitous to
assume that his situation would be
improved. No prospect of improve
ment lies in front of him. All the
prospects are that his situation will
become worse.
ITO look comparatively a long way
ahead, with the object Of discovering
some point where the Germans may
pull their defense together. Is to
overlook the fact that unless there
be a pause, and a relatively pro-
longed pause, that process is out OF
the question. So long as it remains
out of the question the Meuse line or
any other does not signify one lot.
The question may be asked whether
the allies. since so much depends
upon continuity. can keep their at
tack going. Why not. seeing that
the balance is in their favor. and
increasingly in their favor? If the
power of the defense is declining
faster than that of the attack, and
the very conditions of the defense
determine that point beyond debate.
then the prolongation of the attack
is assured. And all it's consequences
are assured at the same time. The
enemy cannot recover while the
chances of recovery are denied him.

What Is Americanism?

Americanism was and always will be
a nationality determined by spirit. and
not by blood or breed. Americanism Is
the will to be free. that burst the con-
fines of the Old World and turned to
the New. In the first Pilgrim who
stood on the brine-washed Plymouth
Rock, and in the last immigrant who
stood on Ellis Island, we find alike
that will to be free which has ever
been the moral foundation of this re-
public For the sources of our New
World nationality must always go
across the sea, and begin with that
will to be free" that burst the con-
fines of the old. and turned to the
new.
Americanism began not with those
embattIed farmers at Concord Bridge,
who fired the shot heard around the
world" 1t began across the. ocean
where those other farmers stood in
the meadows of Runnymede and
fought for the Magma Charta- 1t be-
gan all through the Old World where
men dared at last &c stand and fight
for independence.
Martin Luther and Oliver Cromwell
did not sign their names with John
Hancock. But Luther and the great
Oliver were signers, nevertheless, of
Americas Magma Charta.
In the beginning men emigrated to
this land who knew how to endure.
The Marian exiles founded Massachu-
setts, and Roger Williams founded
Rhode Island. with a spirit of endur-
ance that was stronger than New
England granite. If blood were the
only thing that counted, America s
heritage of blood is the best that the
world can give. These pioneers were
the peers of any stock on earth. But
IL we are true Americans we will say,
1T doesn't cut any ice who our IA
theirs were except in so far as their
example is a challenge to us. their
children. The glory of the starry fla z
shining out from its wondrous past is
no license for vain thought or boastful
tongue. 1t bears witness that those
strong fathers that have gone have
kept the faith with honor. But that
flag today would be a sign of shame.
unless the sons had also kept the faith
with honor
Americanism is being bought again
today at n great price on the battle
fields of France and Flanders When
we have secured our heritage once
more unsullied and inviolate we should
hold It, and guard it, as our most sa-
cred possession.

A week later met that general

that this should be done, as against
a strong school which favored con-

years. Formerly one or at most two

The Scriptures inform us that,
prior to his transgression in Eden,
Adam held direct and personal COM
munion with God; and that one of
the immediate consequences of his
fall which was brought about
Through disobedience. was his for
feiture OF that exalted association.
He was shut out from the presence
OF God, and though he heard the
Divine Voice, he no longer was per
mitted to behold the Presence OF the
Lord. This Punishment was to the
man spiritual death; and it's in
ftction brought into effect the pre-

his sin he would surely die. (See
