We were just ready to start when all of a sudden bullets came whipping savagely right above our heads,

again,” the lieutenant said. “Better hold it up a minute.” The soldiers all crouched lower behind the wall. The vicious little shells whanged into a grassy hillside just beyond us. A Ftench suburban farmer was hitching up his horses in a barnyard on the hillside. He ran into the house. Shells struck all around it. Two dead Germans and a dead American still lay in his driveway. We could see them when he moved up a few. feet.. The shells stopped, and finally the order to start was given. As we left the protection of the high wall we had to cross a little culvert right out in the open and then make a turn in the road. The men went forward one at a time. They crouched and ran, apelike, across this dangerous space. Then, beyond the culvert, they filtered to either side of the road, stopping and squatting down every now and then to wait a few moments.

‘Spread It Out, Now’

The lieutenant kept yelling at them as they started: “Spread it out now, Do you wan! to draw fire on yourselves? Don't bunch up like that. Keep five yards apart. Spread it out, dammit.” There is an almost irresistible -pull to get close to somebody when you are in daffer. In spite of themselves, the men would run up close to the fellow ahead for company. The other lieutenant now called, out: “Now you on the right watch the left side of the street for snipers, and you on the left watch the right side. Cover each other that way.” And a first sergeant said to a passing soldier.

“Get that grenade out of its case. It won't do. you no good in the case. Throw the case away. That's right.” Weren't Heroic Figures ___ Some of the men carried grenades already fixed in the ends of their rifles, All of them had hand grenades. Some had big Browning automatic rifles. One carried a bazooka. Interspersed in the thin line of men every now and then was a medic, with his bags of bandages and a Red Cross arm band on the left arm. The men didn’t talk any. They just went. They weren't heroic figures as ‘they moved forward one at a time a few seconds apart. ‘ You think of attackers as being savage and bold. These men were hesitant and cautious. They were really the hunters, but they looked like the hunted. There was a confused excitement and a grim anxiety in their faces. ' :

Terribly Pathetic to Me

They seemed terribly pathetic to me. They weren't warriors. They were American boys who by mere chance of fate had wound up with guns in their hands sneaking up & death-laden street in a strange and shattered city in a faraway country in a driving rain. They were afraid, but it was beyond their power to quit. They had no choice. They were good boys. I talked | with them all afternoon as we sneaked slowly forward along the mysterious and rubbléll street, and I know they were good boys. And even though they aren't warriors born to the kill, they win

Indiana is faced with the danger of not meeting its individual war bond quota of $133,000,000 for the fifth war loan drive, the war finance committee - reported today, even though the state’s over-all goal has been surpassed.

CHECKUPS URGED ON EXPECTANT MOTHERS

CHICAGO, July 13 (U. P.)~— Failure of expectant mothers to seek prenatal care because they do not like waiting in crowded doctor’s offices may cause a sharp wartime rise in maternal and infant mortality rates, Dr. B. L. Gleason of Larned, Kas. warned today. Gleason, speaking before the American College of Osteopathic obstetricians, of which he is president, said crowding of doctors’ offices is a wartime condition “over which we have no control,” but he added that “it should not, however, deter expectant mothers from visit-|.
