WORK OR FIGHT.

War dispatches to the Tribune today indicate that the Aisne-Marne line is the right flank of the German thrust which had its apex at Chateau Thierry. It is by charging through this flank that Foch hopes to be able once more to force the Germans back from the Marne in hasty, retreat and to change the whole aspect of the war.

The attack from Soissons to Chateau

the allies' victory will be less sweep-

ing, and ft may be only a first prepara-!

tion for a later grand offensive which

may *xt*ttd from the sea to the Vos-

s. The extent of the victory is not

yet determinable but It Is certain tljat1

the great prize of military initiative has been wrested from the enemy and that from now on the allies will be able to determine their own time and manoar of fighting.

H'e are inclined to think Sam exaggerated matters a trifle. However, If the war garden commissioner's suggestion will stop any pro-German chatter, we're for it. He advocates a 7oluntary organization of women, each member of which will get two friends •o listen to no more German poison or vicious knocks against the government "If the women will do this,** said

Thierry is no stroke of opportunism. It was unquestionably planned before »r*'

the launching'of the German MarneChampagna offensive.' Throughout the lull following, the Aisno drive the French and Americans were eternally busy in this sector, nibbling here and theref making uniformly successful local attacks that combined to strengthen the allied front. After the Initiating of the present German offensive Foch waited to make certain that his lines would hold without the aid of extraordinary reserves, and then boldly hurled his Aisne-Marne army into the battle as he would have hurled it had there been no Germarf JMarneChampagne drive.

THE BOLD NEW KNIGHT.

In "a letter to Representative Olney, of Massachusetts, Gen. Kenly, head of the division of military aeronautics, discusses the causes of accidents on aviation fields and asserts that they are caused mainly by carelessness of the cadets. He says it has been found impossible to force them to obey the orders issued for their own protection. The "rules of the road" are violated, With collisions as a result, and dangerous maneuvers are attempted too near the ground.

This is probably inevitable.'. The nature of the service attracts men who

to say the

least,, nor overgifted

with caution and everything connected with the great venture they have un-

dertaken stimulates daring. If daring becomes recklessness, it is no wonder. Aocidents will happen, but everything that can be done should be done to protect the flying men against the inevitable dangers of their work and against the dantrers incidental to their youth and intrepidity. They should not be hurried in their training, and every dollar spertt in relieving congestion by the development of new fields will be well spent.

opportunity to have

to the winning

of the war and are about to begin publicity campaign to educate the public to the possibilities of reclaiming old clothing through modern processes of cleaning and dyeing.

Meantime the government itself is setting an excellent example. At the repair shops and cleaning plants established by the quartermaster corps at tho army cantonments 907,466 pieces of wearing apparel were repaired and 405,102 pieces dry-cleaned in May, and frie issue of new clothing materially reduced. Certainly if the government can afford to save old clothes the public can. There is no reproach in an old coat'nowadays if it is a clean coat it may even serve in the circumstances as a uniform of patriotism.

HOROSCOPE.

"The StarS Incline* Bnt Do Not Compel.* Copyright, 19J5. by the McClure

Newspaper Syndicate.

.Wednesday, July 24, 1918.

According to astrology this is an un lucky day. Although Mercury is in beneflo aspect, Neptune, Uranus, Venus and Saturn are all adverse.

It is an unfavorable rule for naval matters or for commerce. Trouble among sailors is indicated. This may mean that secret influences are at work.

Neptune in evil place is believed to indicate secret machinations of en cmies and the seers warn against spies who will be active in places npt suspected.

One of .the effects of this sway of Neptune is to make innocent persons appear guilty when, the guilty ar* unsuspected.

This is not a favorable rule for hotels or restaurant^ for theatres or other amusements.

Actresses should be especially careful during this direction of Venus, which inclines to disappointments.

The signs are not auspicious for lovers. It is not a lucky wedding day. Women should be cautious, especially in business matters while this configuration prevails.

The stars seem to presage much gossip. Astrologers warn that evil report wil! be prevalent and that it will concern affairs of supreme importance.

Under this sway there may be some sort of excitement over copper. Other metals will be much discussed yt their relation to government needs.

The west will benefit greatly tlirrttlgh important mineral discoveries. Arizona is subject to a beneficial sway of the stars.

Hospitals in the United States will attain great success, but warning is given that enemy influences will be at work in them.

Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of an active yfcar. They should he on the watch for false friend*

Children fiorn flits day Wttl fe active and energetic, but they may suffer from intrigues and meet obstacles to their progress.
