IGNORE GERMAN ARTILLERY

Americans Display Pluck In Holding
Difficult Positions.
With the American Armies on the
Marine, Aug. 14.-Oficers tell many
stories of the pluck of American
"Doughboys" holding extremely diff
dcult and unfavorable positions at the
foot of the heights north of the Vesle.
These men are continually sniping
the enemy, preventing the Germans
from making advances, ignoring the
enemy's artillery and working with
little food until relieved and sent to
the rear.
