Battle ot the Somme
A H»w Picture Kvery Week
By MARY E WALTER
She was 20 and he was 21 when
they became engaged They lived
in the same town, and for a year
previous to their engagement had
been close neighbors. Her engage
ment meant much to this girl, for
lie was the first man she had ever
eared for and she was the flrst girl
he had ever thought of
When they had been engaged
three months last year he went
away to New Mexico with his regl
ment of the National guard The
soldier boy wrote the girl long let
tel’s of his first sight of the great
world and what a wonderful expert*
once It was to him who had lived
always in the one little town.
When the hoy returned after six
months he went first to visit the
girl. He spent an evening telling
her all he had seen and done Aft
er that he called on her once and
then opro more, quite formally for
engacert folk- On the second call
| she showed her hurt She taxed him
\ with remise ness She drew out of
him by questions that he wished to
| break the engagement She de
I manded rea-ons. F'or a long time
' he pleaded w ith her not to Insist on
knowing, hut on her persistence he
admltte-l he had come to feel that
he no longer loved her. In such
c.t-e, he said, it wasn’t fair to him
self an'd, above all, fair to her to
! continue their engagement and
marry. The girl ask*d what -he
had done that he should no longer
care He answered that It was not
a matter of any one’s fault nr any
ones intention, but of < hnnge of
f* dings, of grow th, ihat couldn't b«*
helped But she pleaded thßt since
he had cared once he must still
( arc. that he would come to .see he
still cared, and would want to fulfil
the dutv and obligation he had un
dertaken. He replied that, unless
the duty cr.d obligation were ful
filled in love on both sides, they
were canceled.
The poor girl felt her world had
failed beneath her feet Yet she -till
dung to the idea that her fiance
l ad made some gloomy mistake In
hi feelings, that he would return
and ask forgiveness and reconcilia
tion For a week she waited foi
a month. She drooped, grew pale
and thin The .*yond month went
by She saw the young man occa
sionally. tic was friendly, hut
showed no wish to renew their re
lations. Neither did he indicate
thnt he had found someone else to
take her place
The third month the girl's moth
er decided her daughter's heal’h do

manded change She sent the girt
to visit relatives In distant parts
of the country She was away six
months She met many people. She
saw man> scenes and cond’tlons of
life other than the little town where
she had lived for 2<t years. She
reached home her blooming self
again. When she met her former
fiance the old pain in her heart
was replaced by anew feeling that
enabled her to smile abd say to
him, "I see now quite plainly why
w'e would have made a mistake to
marry. We were attracted merely
because of our youth, because we
were o much together and had seen
so little besides our own narrow
life Your first glimpse of snm*
thing beyond our little town showed
you this as mine later did me How
fortunate we didn’t marry! Th“
readjustment afterward would haw
been vastly more painful than mer*
ly breaking an engagement If mv
mother had allowed me to mope a*
home who knows where l migh'
have ended as the victim of disap
pointed love instead of coining t
a healthy minded view of thing.-'”’

WASHINGTON, July 24 Five
cent bread should reappear in the

i of $2 wheat and conservation meth

j chief lieutenants said today
"There is plenty of food of all
kinds for us and our allies," he -aid
‘"lt Is merely-a question of conserva

"The threat of co-ordinated allied
buying probably will scare the
wheat speculators out of business,

there is no legitimate reason wby
the flve-cont loaf should not re
stored to the entire United States."
