OUTING
mi
BE NOTABLE AFFAIR
Barbecue and Picnic Committees Have All Arrangement* Well In Hand.
With the exception of few details all arrangements have been completed for the barbecue and outing of the Chamber of Commerce, which will he held on the old Hulman farm, east of the city, Tuesday, June 18. The committees have been busy for the past week, and' judging from the elaborate I plans made for the affair it will be one that will long be remembered by those who attend.
Some time affoxthe orfcanfaatirm carried on a lively membership campaign and the "muster roll" of the chamber was boosted to the 1,200-mark. Since that time much of the efforts of the organization have been devoted to patriotic work, done at the request of the government. This included the boosting of the Liberty loans, the selling of war saving and thrift stamps, etc., and at the same time Secretary S. H. McClary was devoting much of his time to his duties as federal fuel administrator for Vigo county. In this worlf Mr. McClary was of great assistance to both the consumers and the coal operators of Vigo county, but he was on the job early and late.
Soon after the membership campaign plans were discussed by the board of directors for a large "get together" meeting to be held, but it was found that there was no hall or room In the city that would accommodate 1,200 people for that sort of an event. Then came the rush of government work, and It was decided to drop social plans and pat every energy to the important work ot "winning the war."
To Get Acquainted.
The «emlng barbecue will answer the purpose of the proposed get-to-gether meeting, and more too. It will be held at the old Hulman farln, five miles east of the city on the National road, commencing at noon and continuing until all have had a sufficient outing. This is an ideal site for such an outing, with rolling hills and plenty of shade trees and a large artificial lake. The Chamber of Commerce was allowed to use this ground through the courtesy of the board of managers of the Rose Polytechnic institute, who now own the property. It is to be the site of the new school buildings and is one of the most pleasant locations near the city. Arrangements have been made for an hourly schedule of street cars to and from the picnic grounds. Provisions have also been made for the parking of autos.
The object of this bljr event li to have every member of the Chamber of Commerce become acquainted yrith every other member. Every member will have a special invitation sent them by mall, and each and every member Is urged to come. Come for a few hours if -you ^an't spend the afternoon and evening.. There will be a register at the grounds and every member will register, showing that ha was there for a short time at least» "this will be a guarantee of the proper spirit.
No matter how busy you are you can spare a short time during the afternoon or evening. All of the amusements and entertainments will be absolutely free, so don't let financial affairs keep you away. Free "eats" and a band concert .are among the "added attractions."
The general committee in charge of the event is composed of Postmaster John J. Cleary, chairman George Schaal, Milton Herz and Secretary McClary. Netxt comes the "stunts" committed. This Is composed of Prof. Oscan Duenweg, chairman Father Ryan, of St. Mary-of-the-Woods, and "Lefty** Gilbert. The appointments for the reception committee will be announced later.
Some Real Entertainment. The "stunts" committee has conferred together on several occasions, and it Is a "oinch" that some up-to-date entertainment has been planned, but just what thl^ is has not been made public. In ftfet, the committee has been as secret about its work as if it concerned the movement of troops and munitions of war. About the best report that can be secured from this committee Is, "come out and see what you will see. The man. with plenty of versatile ability will probably have an opportunity to win several» valuable prizes.-
Then will eome the old-fashioned barbecue. This will probably be ready late in the afternoon, and "mess call" will be sounded about 5 o'clock. Several experts have been secured to look after^this most important part of the outing, and they will be on the ground twenty-focr hours before the feast making plans, digging the ditches for the roasting of the meats, and getting everything in ship shapef.
Turn out and spend the afternoon and evening, or as much of it as you can. moke, eat, and get acquainted.

Retake Muoh Ground.
NEW YORK, June 8.—American troops, thrown into the Maine fighting this week, succeeded in winning back cne-third of the distance northwest of Chateau Thierry, which separates the allies' front from tfce important raiiT&ay line connecting the Aisne with the Genp&n positions along the Marne.
The severance of this railway is the present objective of the Americans. They are now about four miles away. General Foch's tactics, however, oo not lead to the conclusion that he Intends to risk heavy losses even for the purpose 9X driving the Germans from the Marn4 He has requested only local operations from the Americans. It was due more to American initiative aha eagnerness than to orders from French headquarters that this week's gains by the American marines have been so stimulating.
The American* resumed their advance at the end of the week, but they still continue to be nnflned to strictly limited operations. The nature of these tactics does not suggest that General Foch puts a very grave interpretation upon the continued possession of Chateau Thierry by the Germans. It seems to be the present policy at General Foch's headquarters to limit all counter attacks by the allies and not to encourage the Americans to press forward when there is danger of heavy casualties.
To Save Americans.
The purpose of this far-seeing strategy Is clear. Serious American losses at the present time along our part of the west front from the Marne to Ypres would be an acceptance by General Foch of the enticement Hindenburg is trying to draw from General Foch. The Americans could not participate in their full strength in such an engagement and there is no reason to believe the German front would be broken, though it would be pushed back some distance. An entirely new strategic situation, however, will arise if General Foch can hold the allies' casualties to a minimum until America's armies are fully ready to begin a great offensive toward Metz and the Rhine.
The Americans in eastern France are already within easy artillery range ol German territory. A drive Into Germany would compel Hlndenburg to give all his attention td protecting his own oountry, a la-rgs success wo^bjr

These conditions forced the A. T. Keywan Co., one of America's greatest rug importing houses, to quit business. Hundreds of Terre Haute people have bought rugs from this house, and know that their studios contain perhaps the most gorgeous display of fine rugs ever brought to America. In order to give the Harvey Furniture Oo. patrons the benefit of this unexampled Rug opportunity
We Bought the Entire Stock
of the Keywan Indianapolis Branch
Consisting of especially selected pieces of rare beauty and antiquity examples of the Oriental weaver's art. Every known weave from a Baluchistan to a Royal Kashan, in sizes from small mate to the most magnificent carpet is represented a collection which for reasons named above, will be impossible of duplication for many years to come*
These Rugs go on Sale for a few weeks only at less than the present market price.
the Americans on German son not only would force Hlndenburg to shorten his front between the Marne and Ypres in order to find additional troops to guard the Rhine, but also would personally acquaint the German people with the horrors of war at her own doors. Germany and not France would suffer the new devastation.
Patisnoo Is Basio Factor.
Patience, therefore, la the basic factor in General Foch's strategy. The war cannot be ended by doing no more than driving the Germans from the Marne back to the Aisne, or from Flanders to Cambrai. which is all an offensive in western France could now hope to accomplish. There must be a much more effective objective, 'fhie will be provided if, instead of bowing to Hindenburg's challenge in. Flanders. Picardy or Champagne, the allies wait until they can carry the war well Into Germany. The initiative then would rest with the democratic armies, as'it has not done*slnoe the wartbegan.
From now until America is prepared to strike, Hlndenburg will concentrate all his remaining energy on trying to prevent the development of this plan of campaign.
Reports from tha American TiOrralne headquarters this week suggest that new concentrations of Germans were taking place at Metz. A heavy movement of German reserves in the Metz area might mean Hlndenburg has resolved to strike at the American front before America is prepared to take the initiative But the dominating factor In the situation is America's greatly superior man-power.
If Hindenburg were to order a new drive along the Lorraine border, the result might be to delay America's own ultimate offensive. German losses would be so heavy, however, that Von Hindenburg's reserves for defending German territory -would be seriously depleted, while America could far more than replace her own casualties. It is thus because of America that the time element is working so Inexorably against Von Hind«nburg aad bis strategy of slaughter.

Sale of Oriental Rugs
War makes importation impossible-forces the A. T. Keywan Company, the great oriental rtig house, to quit business. The Harvey Furniture Co. has bought the entire stock of the Indian.apolis branch, and will give you an opportunity of buying fine rugs at a great reduction.
You have always wanted to beautify your home with Oriental Rugs. Perhaps their high price has presented the fulfillment sire up to this time. Now comes your chance. The war which has upset conditions in so many lines of business has completely demoralized the Oriental Bug industry. Not has an embargo been placed upon importations, but the Russians and Turks have fought back and forth over the rug-making countries with such devastating effect that it will be years before this aged-old industry will resume its former status.
