VOLUME IS a proud America that listens to the cable. | The fiercest onslaught of the renewed German offens was directed against American troops east and west of Chatet Thierry and east of Rheims. Those “untrained handfuls” from across the Atlantic, whose fighting qualities the German High Command affected to despise, ast Monday drove 1,000 Germans three miles back across the Marne, took 1,500 prisoners including an entire brigade staff, and left only ¢nemy dead on the American side of the river. Throughout their sector the Americans used their field guns, machine guns, trench mortars and rifles with deadly effect. The vigor of their resistance and counter-attacks won enthusiastic prars: from veteran French and British. This was no skirmish or raid whieh American forces have yet been engaged. they fought at Jgulgonne and Belleau Wood was the way they can| be counted on to fight, whatever the scale of battle, Though, as the War Department reminded the country yester day, “the great pressure of reserves and concentrated masses is still to be looked for,” the enemy has found out one thing: | ‘These American fighters are as formidable as he had begun to| fear. His theories of a military machine made irresistible only b; years of preparation for each component part is knocked clean to q pieces by the dash and driving power of these young Americans : who fight with an eagerness that more than makes up for what | Ger@an considers deficiency of training. “Millions more will come,” was the warning uttered last week by a member of the Prussian Landtag. They are on the way. Let Germany mark well the kind of fighters they make. ‘ From three thousand miles across the Atlantic the whole United States hails the Americans defending the Marne and cheers them for ite valiant own. Tt was the biggest action in It proves the way ms —E—EEE———EE Germany put her best troops into the new offensive. Three " divisions of the famous Imperial Prussian Guard have been identt- } 4 fied. Yet the Allied line is unbroken and the enemy's losses have been heavier th any previous action. ‘ * The battering force weakens with each new blow. The bar- ) : riers gain strength. | —-+-—___——. FOR THE PORT OF NEW YORK. | ‘TORE DOOR delivery in this city means more than a great war service, Interstate Commerce Commissioner Harlan has another! argument to bring home to New York merchants and truckmen the value of the new delivery system: 1 Last winter when the traffic congestion was at its height a here the warehouses in Chicago were being filled with mer- chandise that couldn't get to the seaboard. That fact made a deep impression on the country at large. So to-day in a num- ber of large seaport cities the Government and private capital are engaged in enlarging harbors, actuated, by the contingency of New York's not being able to handle its outgoing and in- coming freight when the peak of the war is reached. { f If the port of New York is to keep its commercial supremacy | during the war and continue to be the leading port of the United, States after the war, its merchants and its trucking interesta must adopt store door delivery as among the indispensable up-to-date methods of handling freight. | | ‘The argument holds with equal strength for the prompt im-! | provement of port facilities in other directions, the building of 7. more waterfront terminals and—by no means least—the full utiliza-| tion of the State’s $150,000,000 system of waterways to bring freight, fuel and food to this city, In the interest of New York’s present and future commercial ascendancy, the Merchants’ Association, the Chamber of Commere: and all business organizations throughout the greater city ought to} be working their hardest to assure more boats and bigger traffic on the State Barge Canal. eh 7 ‘The opening of the new Lexington Avenue subway to-day for f local service is another station passed on the costly and prolonged k trip by which New York journeys toward adequacy, convenience and comfort in the meeting of its vast and ever-increasing transit 63 to EDITORIAL PAGE Wednesday, July 17, 1918 iT (The New | German Eagle Feathers!

York Brening World), |*You Can Get Anything on Earth You Want Most—KEven Love—if You Are Willing to Pay the Price.’ O you know, \ D 1 have discovered that everybody gets exactly what he WANTS, In this life— And that you can get anything on earth you really want { If you aro willing to pay the price! | Ob, I don't mean what you THINK you want! 4 Because, if you are a normal human being, You probably think that LOVE, and the happiness it brings, Is what you want moat in the whole wide worldl But it isn’t! For instance, I know a girl who thinks that she wants a cortaim man’s love more than anything else; But what she really wants most is HUR OWN WAYY WSS, And, because she has found that she cannot domie nate the man in every emotion and every little act of his existence, She bas quarrplled with him, and is eating her heart out, alone! And I fear that she never will marry him, : For the price of love is her PRIDE—and she won't pay it! And I know a mother, Who thinks that what she longs for most Is the love of her grownuy son and her married daughter; | But what she réally wants far more Is the privilege of doing as sh@) and saying what she pleases—and not havfng to “consult” anys ; 8, And go she lives alone, in a gloomy New York boarding house, « Because the price of love is self-effacement—and she will not pay it§ _ And I know a man Who thinks that the one thing on earth he wants is his wife's love, | But what he really wants MOST is his own self-indulgence! | And so, day by day, He goes right on dissolving the pearl of her love in a cocktail glass, i\ And watching the light die out of ler eyes. 1 | And it’s breaking his heart, But the price of love is self-control and self-sacrifice—and he won” it! And I know a woman. Who honestly thinks that the thing she yearns for with all her heart is a sweet home life and a devoted husband And she has been married twice, in the hope of finding them. But what she really wants MOST, is her little place in the limelight and the privilege of following a career and earning her own living; For she has never yet tried being “just a wife,” Nor been willing to give up her pen for a carpebsweeper, or to ex~ | change her desk for a cradle and a cook-stove. | And being wedded to an art and to a man at the same time (as I hava often said) is the worst form of bigamy | And the price you pay for it is alwa | And I know a bachelor Who thinks he wants the companionship and love of a wife above al? things else; | But what he REALLY wants most i: his own freedom, | And his queer, selfish, little habits. and the pleasure of spending aft his money on his motorcar, and his fad, and the collection of junk which pay love! ‘The Price of Love: \ { \ he calls his “antiques;” ag And so he lives like a hermit and spends his days pitying himself} because he “can’t afford to marry!” . | For the price of love is a little self-denial—and he WON'T pay it! And yet—you can get anything on earth you want mhost—even LOVE—~ If you are willing to pay the PRICE! New York Girl Types You Know!
