There was an- other on the night of September 13 and maybe later in the day we shall hear of & raid last night. Remembering the raids that have come off, we are apt to forget the fallures.

Of this I was able to satisfy myself during & visit lately to our allles, at the in- vitation of General Joffre, when I was profoundly impressed with the high state of officlency and morale of the French army, It was evident that officers and men recognized that the only possible termination to the war was to inflict on the enemy a thorough defeat.
