Accordingly official observers were able to sense a stiff fening of the Allies lines. The Huns have been paying for their advances at an exorbitant price in lives. There was particularly hard fighting between Soissons and Chateau Thierry, but the French almost everywhere sue cessfully withstood the assault, and also on several sectors took the offen- sivc and gained ground. As whole the situation on this line is relatively unchanged.

Answer to "Unhappy"

Have you ever asked him to take you
to the theatre or the movies. and do you
ever plan little parties IN which men ne
knows are included? Try asking two
girls and men to play cards in the eve
ming. If he is agreeable to It, or suggest
that he ask some of his business friends.
If he will not, see that your house is
always in order and the work not
neglected, and then when your mother
will look after the baby make plans with
your friends and go to the movies with
them and have them in to lunch. Be
open about it. Don't try to hide 1t, but
make him understand you intend to do
it: Be tolerant and do not cry. or fuss
Just go quietly about what you intend to
do and stick to your point.
Try to take an interest in what he
does and the things he reads, even II 1t
is an effort and you find you have to
study the subjects so you will not appear
ignorant. We always have to give in
little on both sides, you know. Let me
know how this plan works, my dear. My
