The musical program arranged for the Chautauqua, is the best ever presented in Richmond, C. W. Jordon, of the Chautauqua committee, said Wednesday. Among the numbers scheduled are, the John B.

The final arrangements for the program will be made at a meeting of the Chautauqua guarantors next week. Reorganization for next year will also be made at that time. The Chautauqua committee has been urged by the government to give as much support as is possible to the Chautauqua this year. Much of the education of the public in war activities is to be done through the Chautauqua platform. It has been stated, and
a Chautauqua program this year is
not only a pleasure, but a patriotic duty.

HIGH SPOTS IN ACTION ALONG BATTLE LINE IN FRANCE
This map shows the battle line in France, where the principal actions
are occurring and the general ter
ritory where action may be expected in the near future. Figure 1 shows where Germans, plunging south from the Noyon-Mont-didied line, threatened the French forces collected in the Paris-Soissons-Noyon triangle from the flank. Arrows point the direction in which the Germans were headed as the first move in this plan straight toward
Paris and ready to turn and flank the French forces. Figure 2 and curved arrow indicate the La Fere-Compeigne-Paris railroad. The Germans hoped to swing the southern side of their Picardy line southward and take this railroad, a strategic move. Figure 3 shows how the Germans, if successful in their plans, would have a parallel atacking route along the railroads running from Soissons and Compeigne to Paris.
Figure 4 shows where the French carried on spirited attacks, took the village of Le Port, west of Fontenoy, in a night attack, and improved their position at Ambleny. 'Figure 5 shows where American and French troops between the Marne and the Ourcq rivers, captured Vilny, drove the Germans from the woods east of Neuilly-la-Poterie and captured the northern portion of this town. Figure 6 shows where Americans,
fighting on the heights above Chateau Thierry, captured the village of Torcy and drove the Hun hordes back
through Bouresches.
Figure 7 shows where British troops on the plateau southwest of Rheims
battled their way into the town of
Bligny.

Life of Retailer Threatened by Trade Acceptance; Says Nusbaum
Lee B. Nusbaum of the Lee B. Nusbaum Company, was one of the speakers on trade acceptances at the annual convention of the Indiana Retail Dry Goods Association at the Claypool Hotel in Indianapolis Tuesday. The discusion on trade acceptances was one of the most interesting and informative of the session. The association passed a resolution approving Mr. Nusbaum's paper. Mr. Nusbaum said in part: "To my mind there are four and only four parties that are interested in the proposition the banker, the manufacturer, the jobber and the retailer. "There is no question in my mind how it will affect the first three named, but try as I will, I can not see how this new plan will better the condition of the retailer. The methods of doing business are continually changing, and it behooves us retail merchants to be on our guard. To a certain extent, is not this the case today?
"1. We do not buy what we want, but what they give us. "2. We do not get the assortment we want, but we take what we can get. "3. We rarely get the stuff shipped when we want it, but we take it when they get ready to send it to us. "4. They charge us what they please and in many cases tell us what the retail price shall be. "5. If the goods is a month in transit you have no recourse but if your check is two days late you lose the discount and now if we adopt the trade acceptance it is going to make it still more binding and the power passes from the man who has the money to the man who wants it. "The avocates of the trade acceptance are very cunning and their theories are very plausible, but it is how it works out in practice that should interest all of us. "Here is a copy of a letter received by a merchant who had been dealing
with the house for years: "We beg to advise you that we can only accept terms of thirty days net trade acceptance, f. o. b., blank on this order. Acceptance to be signed -and returned immediately upon receipt of invoice." "If you like the sentiment here expressed, then sit still and be tied. This trade acceptance matter is being brought before us by the National Credit Men's Association, backed by the bankers of the country. "Now a trade acceptance is nothing more or less than a note; a promissory note pure and simple. It has been given a fancy, harmless-sounding name and called an acceptance. It is no more an acceptance than when a robber meets you on a dark night and with the aid of his revolver, accepts your money. If it was called a promissory note we might not be quite so ready to sign it. "When you give an acceptance the
i receiver has nothing more to do with
it. He puts it in the bank and it has the same standing there as any promissory note has. Yes, it is more than a note. It is a note and a check. When the time for which it is given has expired, it is charged to your ac
count the same as a check without you
being consulted.
"Most merchants have a certain line of credit with their bankers beyond
which they can not go. The merchant
who has sufficient credit rating can
usually borrow to the limit of this line of credit at his bank, and this in the face of the fact that the banker knows that the merchant owes for unpaid merchandise not due, perhaps, to an
amount equal to the bank loan.
"Now let these unpaid, not due, merchandise accounts be converted into
trade acceptances, which are nothing
more than promissory notes, and
turned in to the bank. You may hypnotize the banker, but not the bank
examiner. In short, unless you have
sufficient capital to finance your bus
iness or at least one-half of your present credit you should stand up and make a fight against the trade accept-

TWICE-TOLD TESTIMONY ; , Richmond People Are Doing All They . Can for Fellow Sufferers. Richmond testimony has been published to prove the merit of Doan's Kidney Pills to others in Richmond who suffer from bad backs and kidney ills. Lest any sufferer doubt this evidence of merit, we produce confirmed proof statements from Richmond people who again endorse Doan's Kidney Pills confirm their former testimony. Here's a Richmond case: J. A. Williams, lumber man, 221 S. Ninth St., gave the following endorsement in July, 1912: "Doan's Kidney Pills have done a lot of good in our family and we are glad to recommend them. I used Doan's when my tidneys were weak and when my back was aching. They strengthened my kidneys and stopped the pains." On November 22, 1917, Mr. Williams eaid: "Doan's Kidney Pills are the best kidney rememdy I ever used. I know they are worth a trial by anyone who needs a good kidney medicine." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mr. Williams had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y.
