Today I pushed up as near the front as possible but could only get general impressions of the events or recent days. "It must be borne in mind that although al-though on the left flank thp allied armies have been forced to withdraw, their lines so far remain intact. At no point has the enemy succeeded in driving a wedge through the circle which is drawing closer and closer around the capital and gaining in strength as it retires. "Amid all the welter of war the British troops produced the real quality qual-ity of efficiency. The spirit of Kitchener Kitch-ener apparent! pervades the whole British expeditionary force The transport and commissariat are all ex cellent and they have withstood the slaughtering tactics of the German general staff with wonderful equanimity."
