HALF TIM STORM Of THE CRITICAL YEAR

Allies Are B&pidly Restoring Balance As a Result of Arrival of Americans.

NEW TORK, July 4.—Three months ago today Gen. Ludgndorff struck his first blow In the German offensive of the present year. We have, therefore, come to the half-way mark in the campaign of 1918. Last year weather conditions were so unfavorable In August and September as to paralyze the British offensive in Flanders. A repetition of the climatic conditions of last year would preclude any major German success after Sept. 1, but in any event it is no exaggeration to say that we are at least half way through the storm and stress of this critical year. What is ther*, then, to be said of German achievement—Actual and relative?

Three months ago the greatest and best trained German armies that had taken the field since the days of the Marne campaign, commanded by more experienced officers and vastly better equipped for contemporary warfare, struck the allies' lines between the Oise and the Scarpe and scored one of the notable victories of the world war. Yet, despite his greatest initial successes, the victorious German was pinned down almost at the edge of the old devasted district of the Somme, with the road o Paris still barred and with the union between the British and the French armies maintained. The first battle of the campaign fell short of any decisive result.

Satin is the favorite fabric for sports costumes this summer. Sports suits, sweaters, sleeveless jackets, separate skirts and shirt waists are all made of this soft lustrous material. Baronette satin is the most popular, but it is rather prohibitive in price.

Pictured is an attractive satin skirt in green and white with patch pockets put on at a clever angle. It is worn with a simple lingerie blouse of while batiste. Broad tucks in the front and a roll collar of lace are the only trimming \ised on the blouse and a green tie to match the skirt is a rather striking addition.

The sports hat Is a soft crushable shape. It is made of green and tan caterpillar straw, caught at one side with a bright green silk tassel. Green and tan sport hats are especially good this year and made of linen, crash satin or checked silks they are even more popular than straw.

successes purchased at heavy cost. This stroke, too, ended by failing either to reach. the channel ports or isolate the British and Belgium armies in Belgium from the allies' armies in Prance. Again, as in October and November, 1914, the road to Calais was securely barred.

The third German operation, Which took place in Champagne, beginning on May 27, was another considerable and striking victory, again devoid of anything approximating a final achievement. Strong positions and valuable territory were taken, with many prisoners and much war material, and the Germans drew nearer to Paris than they have been since the retreat from the Marns, but one* more they were checked.

FStaally, on June 9, the fourth German effort was made between the Oise and the Avre and ended in an immediate and decisive check for ths Germans, whose losses recalled equally vain sacrifices made at Verdun. Actually this fourth and last great blow was parried within three days and the Germans^ broke off the battle on the fifth day, having scored an advance of a little more than eight miles at the extreme point of penetration.

Germans Outguessed Allies. There are two standards by which we must examine the German's achievement in the first half of the campaign of 1918. What he has done must be considered in relation to what he hoped to de and had to accomplish to realize his own purposes. He opened the fighting with successes achieved by methods which took his enemy by surprise and made a profound impression upon the world. Not since the early days of August, 1914, has the German in the west achieved any thing like the successes won between March 21 and June 15. He had outguessed his foe and he harvested the fruits of superior strategy and better tactiee. His haul of prisoners and guns, materials and munitions recalled the booty of the opening months of the war.

On the other hand, in the first three months, when he had the advantage of surprise, the German totally failed to produce a decision. He did not get to Parii or to the channel. He did not divide the British and the French. He did not destroy the British or the French armies and he emphatically did not break the morjfle of the French or the British soldiers or civilians. L.lke the victories of Napoleon at the opening of the campaign of 1813 in central Germany, Ludendorffs victories have been barren of decisive result when a decision was all essential.

Already we have perceived that the balance is being restored between the German and our allies on the west front. We Americans alone have since March 21 sent to France sufficient troops to replace the losses of our allies in the first three months of fighting. Mistakes made by the British in the matter of training and calling up troops fnr service in France have been "repaired. The advantage of numbers, if it still remains with the Germans, is slight and is destined to disappear, at no far distant date in consequence of the rapid arrival of Americans and unity of command has abolished a fundamental weakness in the allies* ranks.

The German has spent more than 500.000 men in winning brilliant but indecisive triumphs, the very magnitude of which has forced his opponents to that supreme effort which is already beginning to reveal its results on the battle front and behind it. The German set out to destroy his enemies by a sudden and terrific blow, but he failed, and all his subsequent blows have failed to destroy the will or the military establishment of his enemies.

Tremendous Profits are Lost. All the tremendous profits which he drew from the collapse of Russia, all the advantages in numbers which was a consequence of the removal of the Slav armies, are rapidly disappearing and no further accessions of strength to the German can be expected.

Henceforth time must run against him steadily to the hour when the American troops have come in sufficient numbers to put him on the defensive permanently. We have had very anxious moments in the last three months. If th© Germans overestimated his possibilities, our allies clearly and dangerously underestimated them.

It is too early to dismiss the German effort as spent. Germany has staked all on an immediate decision and she still has the men and the material to make desperate attempts to win that world domination" which she sought at th" outset of the war, but lookin^t,s^c- p-ard over tlxe last three rrrenders of|'is no reason for pessi-

ever made In human history, we have parried the German when he had more power and more chances of success than he ever can have again in this war.

The recent successes along the Oise, the even greater local victory at Rheims, the magnificent rally of Ttaly against the hated Austrian oppressor, these are signs of better days and the promise of happier fdrtunes. Already there come from Berlin and more clearly from Vienna, rumblings of popular discontent and disappointment, which may be exaggerated but cannot be dismissed. Hitherto our w«.r years have begun with victories and ended with defeats. It is far from impossible that the campaign which had the worst beginning might prove the best for the allies in the whole history of the war.,

~WH0A, DOBBENT

Maybe you ae too even-tempered to feel the tension of the times, but a good many folks confess to being rather on edge over the demands of the day. "I feel just like breaking out now and then," is the way one farmer explains it "I am not mad at anybody in particular, but I would Just as soon fight as not, these days. Things get on my nerves more than usual, and I am liable to fly off the handle, to 'So right up In the air," as the saying is, without sufficient provocation. Now, what do you suppose the matter is?"

We were unable to teH hltn offhand what was the matter, and he continued analyzing his moods: "It isn't that I object to the w«r, or that I hesitate to do my part, I 4ubm.it to the regulations cheerfully, and contribute my share to whatever comes along. To' the best of my knowledge and belief I am not a slacker. But I take spells when I want to blame Somebody for something, no matter what, and feel just like starting a riot."

It is a good time for our friend, a.n5 others who feel more or less as he does, to exercise a reasonable degree of selfrestraint. We are reminded again of the little boy who, in explaining Job's experience with the enemy, aaid that "Satan got pretty near everything Job had, but he couldn get his goat."

So, let's "hold our horses." Let's not let the modern enemy of mankind get on our nerves any more than we can help. It is better to be a little bit grim just now than to be too excite^J
