"Prom this it to an obvious corol-

Whether It follows the defensive, can
only give results and In consequence
must always be adopted at the finish.
"To maintain our position is not

"1f we remain where we are and
do not pass to the offensive to fix
the direction of attack, to guard
against the plans of the enemy and
prevent him from carrying out the
same manoeuvre, we must undertake
to carry on and sustain numerous
combats, each with determined aim.
"But since there remains no doubt
that derisive attack Is the very key-
stone of a battle, all otber actions

visage*, coesldered, organized, pro-
vided with forces In the measure In.

masa, Its surprise, its speed, and for
which, In coosequen..e, 1t Is essential
that there shall be the maximum re-

say the prepared bludgeon — is or-

namely, the decisive attack.
"Reserves must be husbanded
with the most extreme parsimony so
that the bludgeon may be strohg

Although theory fails when applied

and reason shows that In battle there
is a "Ingle argument which le worth
