With the American Army in France,
Nov. 20 (by the Associated Press).-
The American artillery and infantry
at the front are dry once more, the
rain having ceased for several days.
The correspondents visiting the i'm
mediate front through the courtesy
of the French staff found that the
Amer leans had taken advantage of
the rainless weather and were devot-
ing all their energies to changing, as
they put it, Germans into casual
ties" They are on their toes every
minute and are not letting a single
opportunity slip to drop shell or to
send machine gun and rifle bullets
where the enemy is seen, or where he
is suspected of being. There Is no
doubt that the men like the life they
are living They are as cool and
metho odical as if they had been doing
nothing else than fighting through
out their lives.
Drive Germans TO Cover.
The fine group in the first line
trenches had just sat down to their
salmon sandwiches and coffee when
they jumped up and cut loose with
their automatic rifles at Germans who
were discovered hanging out clothes
on a wire in a battered village. They
saw the enemy dive for cover like rab-
bits and then they went on with their
meal as If nothing had happened.
On this particular section of
Frances long battle front the earth
does not absorb water like sponge as
in some other localities. There has
been no rain for three days. so the
ground is fairly dry. The uniforms of
the men show evidences Of where mud
once had been, but that is all.
Dog Deserts Kaiser.
From the first line trenches which
are on hill, the German first line
can be seen clearly between 500 and
1000 yards away. There was some
thing in the German first line once
which will never go back to Germany.
It'i is woolly dog which deserted the
enemy. crossed No Mans Land and
bounded into an American trench one
dark night recently. 1t liked the hand
of an American dough boy and was
promptly fed with piece of white
bread and a ha ndful of Columbia river
salmon. He was thereupon adopted
and now roams all around the
trenches and even walks upon the
parapet and through the barbed wire
