"OUR WAR, 60TH DAY"

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

One Bostonian paper, with honest and unhumorous dignity, has devoted a page of its reading matter each day to "Our War, -- Day." The blank days have now run into the sixties.

It is to be noted that two days before France was at war with Germany, German troops were across the border, and French troops had met the enemy in conflict.

That was two days before war. Lightning, chained or free, strikes quick. This is sixty days after war. The thunder of our prowess is still echoing, although no lightning has demolished Germany. Let us hope, for the sake of humor, that before the chronicle runs into the 200th day, it may be recorded that "American arms have met the German arms in honorable combat, and driven them victoriously back."
