RE ----; A AMINO INI Save your money and:loan it to the govermment. The greater the loan, the sooner will the boys come home. "Der Tag," the great day of vic: tory to which the Germans looked, Seems to have been transformed in- to a day of retreat. Above the roar of the cannon, says the Chicago News, can be heard the faint far squawk of a dissolute 'German eagle trying to coo. The capture of Lens and the great coal region that surrounds the city will cause rejoicing in France, where thé people suffered severcly froth the lack of coal last winter. "Let George do it' has given "Let Foch and Allenby do it." And the best of it 1s, they are doing. it te- the satisfaction of everybody--except the enemy. . ® . The whole situation is one of ter- ribla seriousness, comments the Vorwaerts, of Berlin. - The fact of impending disaster to Ge ny can no: longer be kept from its people Hon. T. W. Crothers, in an ad- dress at Brantford last week, ex- "pressed his great confidence in pub- leity, declaring that no one could} stand against public opinion. He is himself a concrete example of the exception that proves the rule. A shortage of 400,000 tons in the of this pro- province is bound to be felt ths winter.

The British 'attack on Zeebrugee and the Allied destruction of the Austrian naval base at Durazzo, on the Albanian coast, were as dramatic and thrill- ing as the immortal Charge of the Light Brigade. Turkish rule in Palestine and Syria has been forever wiped ou: victories of General Allenby. The war has pro- duced no'other British general more brilliant tham he.

The war f movement has only just begun.

Save your money. the stroke that will spell victory. A TIGER THAT WOULD BE A TABBY. The German tiger, as soon as it finds itself powerless to 'do more] harm, would pose as a tabby. it Ppurrs for peace, now that it is nn longer able to impose its will upon the world. But the nature of tne beast is too well known for. its sud- den conversion te fool anyone. The terms of peace will be dictated to a Germany which has first handed over its sword and ridden itself of » forever accursed military autocracy. There will be mo negotiations in some neutral country. The world knows too well to-day that the word or the bond of Germany means no- thing to the Prussian warlords} Only 'an admission of unconditional surrender will suffice. The Am- ericang are determined not to end this war until their armies invade German soil and bring home to the gnemy some of the sufferings and wrongs it has so systematically wrought upon the fair towns and cities: of France and Belgium. No proposals of peace from Potsdam will be listened - to. The ' terms which Germany will have to accept will he those imposed by a trium- phant Allied army, and they will not be easy terms. . . Germany has lately sought through changes in the personnel of her government, to show her sympathy towards somé small mes- supe'of democricy. It is too much, however, to expect that the Kkaisef » | Verted overnight and that their sole concern now is a wider measure of freedom for the people.
