Enemy pressure increased and cas
ualities became heavier. All except
the actual cannoneers fought infan
try fashion, and succeeded in taking
30 to 40 prisoners
At last the battalion commander
decided that the position at Villeroux
was untenable. The batteries mov
ed near Senonchamps. As the out
fit began to pull out. one of the rad

Through a hail of small arms fire,
Sergeant Donald Corzo, Haddon
field- New Jersey, went to the truck
and destroyed all the signal equip'
ment to prevent its falling into Jer
ry hands
At Senonchamps the battalion pre
pared for a last stand. Because of
casualiteis- all gun crews were re
duced to the minimum- By this time
it was obvious the enemy was on all
sides
The battalion guns were set up to
fire all around the circle. “We
made two-gun platoons,” explained
Major James W- Melville, operat
ions officer of Broken Bow, Nebr
aska. “and fired in all directions. We
hadtargets everywhere—would have
fired more ammunition than we'd
used at Brest.—if we’d had the stuff.
The guns were firing at ranges of
1200 to 1500 yards—guns which nor
mally have a range of 12,000 to IS,
000 yards. “We took everything the
Germans had to throm” said Serg

That mortar fire was like hail. 1

would have done if it hadn’t been foi
the help we got from that airborne
infantry outfit. They’re hot stuti ,
best outfit I know.”
A nondescript dog found shivering
near the battalion comand post was
one factor which helped keep the
men's spirits up. “Kaupt" as he wa»

ABBE’S NEW 1945 READINGS ARE NOW READY
M. C.—I am a woman of 32, maried, have no children and now separat
ed and have been for five months. During this time I have met and
started going with another man who has been very nice to me. My hus
band knows of this man. Now my husband is demanding that I go
tack with him. He says he will give me a month to break away from
this other man. The other man has a common-law wife. Do you think
my husband wants to settle down and be nice to me or will he continue
to be a lover of other women?
Arts: Morally,, all three of you are guilty of the same offense .
that of encouraging an affair when neither of you are free to do so.
Outside affairs always invariably bring disappointments and disillusion
ntent. It was a blow to your husband when you left him. He immed
iately- realized that he was ready to put outside interest out of his life
and wants nothing more than to start life over again with you. Bring
about a reconciliation now before any damage is done and you two can
live a normal, congenial life together.
V. N.—Two years ago you helped me out on a difficult problem and
now I am coming to you again. I am 20 years old and am going with a
soldier who is a year older. In a couple of weeks it will mark out go
ing together one year. I’m sure I love him just as he says he loves me.
We’re going to marry next month. I’ve gotten acquainted with most of
his people through mail and they seem to be very nice. My people are
fond of him. Here is my question. Before I met him I was going with
a boy from here. He is in the Army now too. I promised him that I’d
wait for him. Do you think I should keep this just because it’s a prom
ise? Do you think he’ll hate me for it, Of course it won’t matter much
because I know I’ll be marrying the one that I really love. What do
you think?
Ans: The correct thing to do is to write this boy as soon as possible
and tell him that you have ftad a change of heart and wish to be relieved
of the promise you made him. He, nor anyone else can ever condemn
you for being honest and true to your convictions. It will soften the
blow for the young man if you write him yourself as the news is bound
to leak out sooner or later through others.
R. F.—We married ten years ago and separated two years later. He
is now in serwice and has decided he wants a divorce. He says he has
found the person he loves. Should I grant him a divorce? My decision
depends on your answer. I too, have found someone 1 love.
Ans: For eight years you have been separated and during this time
you have had no inclination to resume your married life so it is only
logical that you grant your husband his freedom. You can't make a
new life for yourself without your 1 egal freedom. It’s best this way.
Li. E.—-I am a girl of 18 and my problem is this: "To kiss or not to
kiss?” I have ben taking company 3 years and still can’t find the right
answer. My parents don’t approve of a girl kissing unless they’re en
gaged. Some of my girl friends say that if I don’t, I won’t have a boy
friend. Others say, the boys don’t really mean it, they are just trying
me out to see if I will or not. I have quit most of my boy friends be
cause of this problem. Every time one brings me home, he wants to
squeeze and kiss me goodnight. When I would refuse, he would ask,
why not? The other girls do. If you say it's right, I’m willing to kiss
the boy friend I have now. 1 think he's the right one because he’s wait
ing patiently.
Ans: A good night kiss shouldn't be damaging if it isn’t carried to
the extreme. But once it becomes a habit your reputation is at stake.
The girl who is a little stinyg with her kisses and keeps herself mas
ter of the situation is the one all the boys run after and seek out.
Promiscuous kissing should never be indulged in. The mystery that
surrounds a girl who keps a boy guesing is far more tantalizing than
giving in to every whim his fancy dictates. My suggestion is that you
b ea conservative and have no reason for regrets later on.
