WISCONSIN AND MICHIGAN

Gallant 32nd Has Fought 20 German
"Crack" Divisions. 1t Has Fought
on Five Fronts and Never Yielded
Yard Of Ground.
This article is taken from The New
York Herald, published in Paris:
When the American Army of occu-
patton started its march towards the
Rhine on November II. 1918. one of our
crack divisions, the Thirty Second.
was celebrating an anniversary. Just
six months before, this division planted
the American Flag on German Soil in
Alsace.
On May 10th Wisconsin and Michigan
men came under enemy shell fire, and
from that date to November 18th the
division has outranged Boche guns.
Only ten days after its turn IN the
trenches. the 32nd chased the Boche
from the Ourcq to the Vesle. Then it
went to sector north of scissors and
stormed Juvigny Plateau, fighting side
by side with the heroic "Poilus" of
General Mangin. After that victory
with the French it had rest for ten
days before getting ready for the final
dive. The American army's scrap
north of Verdun was but three days
old when the Thirty Second went in,
and for the next three weeks the Wis
consin and Michigan boys battled the
Boche for Kreinhilde Stellung. 1t was
they who finally broke through the Key
position of "La Dame Marie" from
which they then pushed on to Freya
Stellung, pushing the Boche gunners
out of Bantheville Wood. They carried
the line up to the point where the final
attack, on November 1st, was launched,
and followed in support of the divisions
which crossed the Meuse at Dun and
captured Stenay. In the last few days
of the war the Thirty Second went into
the line in the Meuse bridgenead Sec
tor, and with the French were in the
midst Of an attack when the armistice
stopped fighting. During the war the
division has fought on five fronts -
Alsace, the Vesle, Scissors, Argonne
and the Meuse~-and has fought twenty
of Germany's best divisions, among
them the Prussian Guards. 1t has
never yielded yard of ground to the
enemy's counter attacks.

THE TIE THAT BINDS.
By DOROTHY DIX.
HIGHEST PAID WOMAN WRITER

The real reason that men roam away
from their own freside is not because
their own wives are not attractive.
but because they have an idea that
a forbidden love is more romantic
than a duty love. 1t isn't. because
there is nothing more disillusioning
than deceivinG and meeting afinities
In places where you are not likely
to encounter your friends.
Upon the woman the effects OF ro-
nance are still more dangerous. She
decides that she cannot exist without
thrills. If she does not have tremors
every time she looks upon her hus-
band she thinks she has made a
fatal mistake in marriage. and the
sensible man who pays her bills and
leaves her time to read novels. is not
her real soul mate, so she starts out
on still hunt for an affinity.
So far as young girls are concerned
romance is a wolf in sleeps clothing
that is waiting TO devour them. 1t
Is romance that makes respectable
young women pursue actors with COM
promising letters. makes well brought
up girls indulge in fiirtations with
strange men meet lovers of whom
their parents disapprove and contract
marriages that they spend the bal
ance of their lives in repenting.

No other one thing has done so
much harm in the world as romance.
It has broken up more homes, and
wrecked more lives than the Demon
Rum ever dreamed Of The worst part
of it is nobody wants to be cured. We
court the danger that may annihilate
us. and the thing We dread most is
the fear that as we grow old we may
become immune to the fatal complaint.
In reality romance is merely a kind
OF sensational delirium tremens from
which they generally awake with an
aching heart, and a reputation that
needs to be sent to the laundry.
OF course we haven't been in the
way of looking at the matter in this
light We have glorified romance.
and made It the synonym of all that
was most beautiful in life, but all
the same, the devil could shut up
shop. and take a vacation now and
then if it wasn't for romance which
keeps him working overtime.
1t must be perfectly apparent to
everyone that most of the sins that
are attributed to total depravity are
the result Of the love OF romance.
