WAR WON BY AMERICAN !
SPIRIT, SAYS ANSELL.
Allied Line Strengthened When at
Chateau Thierry Two Divisions
Stood Ground, He Declares.

Gen s. r. AnsefI, speaking last night
before members Of the Washington So
ciety of Engineers at the Cosmos Club,
declared that the decisive battle Of the
war was the first engagement at Cha
teau Thierry when two divisions Of
Americans held back the enemy and the
American spirit rallied the entire allied
line from tho North sea to Switzerland
"1t was not the war machine and
numbers that won." said Gen. Ansel,
but the spirit of the Americans, which
was the most aggressive, the most ex-
citing and the most spiritual thing of
the whole war. A. Chateau Thierry two
American divisions stood their ground,
never intending to go backward. and
they never did go back. It was their
spirit that won and took by surprise the
Germans. who knew they had encoun-
tered a spirit which had not been count
ed upon.
THAT spirit ran up and down not only
the British army and the French army,
but the entire allied lines from the
North sea to Switzerland.
Could Not Be Cowards.
'The American army had something
about it that was palpahe-you could
see tit was thrilling. 1t seemed i'm
possible for an American to he a cow
ard with such spirit. which was not that
of bravado, but serious. Their Ameri-
cansrn took them to the battle line and
held in check a superior force of the
best professional troops Of Germany and
overcame them.
Our Army in France achieved re-
suits that were thought Impossible
for any army SO raised. England did
not think it could have been done SO
soon and Germany did not think it
possible. Our Army was neither the
largest there nor was II the best
equipped, for what we most Dragged
about-equipment, etc.--broke down.
However. we exceeded in morale.
What made this peculiar Army, made
up of different classes from civilian
life, was the spirit that it took to
Europe"
Best Human Being Won.
Gen. Anseu declared that the war
was one in which the contest was be-
tween human beings and that the
best human being won, and not the
best equipped. He said that the spirit
dominating the people on the battle
field was involved in the struggle.
Since the human element plays a
greater part In warfare than mere
mechanics, Cen. Ansell said that more
attention should be paid by the gov
ernment to development of this spirit
not only at West Point but also in
the United States Army

FRIDAY. NOV. IA.

While the stellar forces for this

a warning. This applies particu-

aspect. This discourages those
working for others or those who
seek favors from the authorities or
public officials. The Jupiter influ-
