Daily Press,

The Advance on Paris. But so enormous is the army which Germany has been able to put into the field and to. con- centrate for a successful invasion of France at her weakest spot, that her adversaries could never have been under any delusion regarding the severity of the struggle and the possibility that" it would be of long duration unless other than purely military con- siderations compelled Germany to yield. Lord Kitchener, it will be remembered, contemplated, that the war might last three yeare and even longer, and it is very evident that the possibility of the German Army being able to reach Paris does not come to the com- munders of the defending forces as a surprise, but merely as a possible incident in the war. The" German Army might have been surrounding the French capital a fortnight ago but for the gallant and unexpectedly successful resistance offered to its progress through Belgian Army, which held it in check while the French and British forces moved towards the frontier. It may be that the invading army will not now be able to reach the goal of their ambition at all; the constant setting back of the Allies' line may have been done with an object, and not necessarily be cause of the pressure of the enemy, and thus a surprise may be in etore for the German army during. the next week or so; but it is perilons to prophesy and we can only "wait and 'see.”

been engaged during the past fortnight our successes have been very satisfactory and much more important than

they may appear to be in view of the un doubted fact that the enemy has advanced. Time and again the Germans have been heavily re- pulsed at vital points, and it is clear that only a comparatively small proportion of the enemy have been able to make head- way and that only because of their numerical superiority, must not be forgotten also, that upon their success, in France Ger many's whole existence is involv ed. They are therefore making herculean efforts and putting for ward their entire strength. In Esat Prussia, the Russians have! invaded as much German ter ritory as has the enemy in France and are meeting with much, greater success than is falling to the Germans.
