OUR BIG CONTRIBUTION. Seme of out jingo publications give a false impression. It is not the Amercan army alone that has smashed the Soissons-Marne-Rheims salient and sen the Huns reeling back to the Aisne. It is not the Americans primarily. Let us not forget that 70 per cent of the troops participating in that glorious feat were French. The American contingent may be set down roughly at 20 or 25 per cent. There were a few British and Ital- ians Ali fought well. We should claim no more than our shareof the credit. Our chief glory is that our troofis, raw as they were, fought as well as the French veterans, our masters in modern warfare as;well as our com- Trades in arms. At, the same time, we may find gratification in the knowledge that the very presence of our boys,on that battle front made the French sur- pass themselves. The veteran poilus had the skill that comes only from experience. They had courage that we cannot excell. But after four years of such gruelling struggle the best and bravest soldier inevitably becomes a little stale. He has lost his first, impulsive zeal. Fighting with him becomes a job. With our in the full flush of théir novel gove Ti hting_is a passion. Their eager | spirit undoubtedly had its effect on } the war-worn French, and the vet- erans fought once mere in the same spirit that won, the first Marne bat- tle. - | We may count on the American | troops producing that effect of all} our hard-buffeted Allies. They are} more than a physical army. They are | spiritual force. With those eager | lads shouting and singing in the charge, any battle.line will fight bet-{ ter, any army will take on a keener | edge and a more jmperious will to | win. —o. THE BUSINESS CAPITAL. | | i Heretofore we have had two na- tienal capitals, one for government and the other for business.
