crushing of Buron and .Gruchie; and

'After 56 days of continuous action
the regiment'went out for its first rest,
coming back _four clays later in support
of • 4 Canadian Div. Action became
really interesting at the time. The
boys began calling themselves . the
"19th Recce Regt."
At Les Monts d'Erames 52 prison-

The 19th Field arrived in time to
assist in the taking of Brugge, Eecloo
and Maldegem, and the subsequent
Scheldt pocket assault.
When the issue had been .decided
at Breskens, the 19th set out for

adian Army was poised for the push
which cleared the Hun ,from south of
the Meuse River. Value of the self-
propelled guns was evident here as the
regiment shifted from one position to
another, keeping up a deadly fire on
the retreating •Germaes. Bergen Op

around the 19th, for, considering the
spots it has occupied, casualties have
been light (business of crossing the

go to the 'oxcellent leadership and

Household
Hints
By MRS. MARY MORTON
Choosing desserts that take little
sugar is still one of the American
housewife's favorite indoor sports. Of
course you can train the family to go
without desserts—or can't you? — but
you do like to serve a nice dessert
when you have guests.
