The German people, when they learn how their "peace offensive" was shattered, will never again dare to hope for a victorious end of the war. This glorious result is due to Ferdinand Foch more than any other man. It gives him enormous prestige

THEIR WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY. There are, according to the best reports obtainable by this paper, about, a hundred Lake county boys, mainly from Hammond and Whiting, at Chateau Thierry. What a wonderful opportunity is theirs! Hew we envy them in being so close to what is one of the most historic spots in the world. Perhaps Chateau Thierry doesn't mean so much to them. But if they remember their history they will recall facts about the town on the Marne that made It known long before the Lake county boys helped to make It a battle ground. Tradition says the castle or chateau was built in 720 by Charles Martel. to serve as palace and prison for Thierry IV, the young king of the Franks. Perhaps there had once been a Roman camp there. A writer for the Societe Historique et Archeologique ia ChateauThierry suggests that the early town may have been destroyed by the original Hun3 In 451. Certainly Chateau Thierry ha3 f.cured ln nearly every important struggle in France. It repelled the English in 1 n 7 0 . but in 1421 Henry V captured it by surprise. Another conqueror, the Emperor Charles V, took the town in 1514. It suffered in civil wars, and in 1514 Napoleon defeated the Russo-Prussian forces near Chateau Thierry. When the Chateau Thierry historical society meets after the war they will add a chapter to their records that will belong to New World histories too, says Collier's. For it was on May SO, 1918, that the Germans in their desperate offensive reached the Marne at Chateau Thierry. The position is just as important today a3 it was a dozen centuries ago. So when the modern Huns seemed to be winning, American marines were rushed by motor from camps 'sixty mile3 away. They went straight into battle, and came in time to save the sou't bank of the Marne. We have not heard the last of Chateau Thierry.
any mistake about this ' f.appers" and it will not
have for years to come. They are loafers as much as men who sit and whittle or idle their time in parks or on public benches or in pool rooms or Just as much as women who will not sew or knit. They are shirking their duty to their country when it needs every helping hand possible. They are just as much deserters as sol
diers who run away from camp. They are traitors to j
their cause. The richer and better educated they are the worse their crime. FuMic contempt and cern of them will prow until their lives are made uncomfortable. It is time for every girl in her late teens to find her proper niche in war work. Vacation time offers opportunities for them to help the cause. The opportunity may be in a factory, in an office, in a Red Ctofs class or in knitting socks and sweaters for the f.s.'hers. Girls
who have no home duties should find a way at once to j devote eight hours six days a week to war work. If they
find no other means of working they can call at the

The turning of Germany's supreme offensive ino a crushing defeat is a personal triumph for General Foch. The generalissimo of the allied armies ha3 now fully justified his right to command, as the foremost military experts of France, England and America believed he WOUld. Never was there a more severe test of military patience than that endured by Foch through the gloomy weeks when Germany was dealing blow after blow, and the allied armies were yielding mile after mile of precious territory, without ever striking an effective blow In return. Time and time again it was expected that Foch would launch a counter drive. He was known to be an offensive fighter by instinct and profession. Yet he remained steadily on the defensive. In the fourth German drive observers almost everywhere hoped and believed that he would throw his "army of maneuvre" against a flank of the big salient created by the advance of the crown prince toward Paris, between the Marne and the Aisne. Nothing happened, except the gradual tightening and stiffening of the defensive lines. We know now, or suspect, that Foch had no "army of maneuvre." He did the only thing he could do, with the material at hand. That Hun advance must have been more intolerable to him than tetany other man in France. But he endured it, with silent patience. At last his opportunity arrived. With a million Americans added to his forces, and the kaiser's army weakened by the steady drain of previous drives, Foch made his plaa3 and bidded his time. His previous
strategy had lured the enemy into a
