to pay this and last year s per capita tax to the State association, which made the balance little lower that it otherwise would have been. Committees Final Report. Under the head of new business c. J. White, chairman of the Chamber of Commerce reorganization commit tee. made his final report for the committee. He told of the wonk done by the committee and said that to his disappointment it has proven unwise to have the maximum mem bership fee of $25 and the minimum fee of $5. He said that when he first argued for that plan he thought hav- ing but one grade would approach the ideal but since then he has found that human element has crept in and where it is easier for men to sign large check for large corporation 1t is often hard for them to sign a smaller one for themselves. MT. White thinks that graded member ship will be necessary in the future.
 Speaking for the membership com mittees he said that the mercantile s committee has reported generous membership fees, the civic commit tee has done as well as can be ex- 1pected. but the manufacturing com rnittee has been slow in getting re- turns. He declared that he knows all of the large corporations are willing to join and subscribe but are not, at present anyway, willing to offer their services as they are too busy to do any civic work. In this connection MT. White warned the members that for time, until the new organiza- tion gets to running smoothly, much of the work will have to be done by those men who are interesting them- selves in its development now.
 Can Get $5,OOO.
 Chairman White has received up to date. in excess of the present mem- bership of the Business Mems as- sociation, about $1,200, making about $2,500 in sight and this added to the $500 in the treasury will bring the total up to about $3.000. The other $2.000 that will be necessary for the first years work will not be hard to raise, MT. White thinks.
 Opposed to Giving Funds.
 A letter was read from ex-President A. Howard Abbe, in which he pledged his support to any measures deemed wise by the association, but stated that in his opinion he did not think 1t right that the money in the Busi- ness Mems association treasury should be turned into the general fund of the Chamber of Commerce. On the other hand he thought this should be kept separate for the use of the merchants department. to which most of the Business Mems association members will belong and be the more deeply interested in.
 In replying to this letter President Andrews said he thought the old as- sociation should give it's money as we'll as its blessing, and thought that MT. Abbe would be of the same opinion If he were present.
 Resolutions Adopted.
 Mir. White then read the following resolutions which were adopted:
 "Whereas a notice In writing was submitted to the board of directors more than six weeks prior to the annual meeting of the New Britain Business Mems association held in 1914, giving notice that the name of the New Britain Business Mems as- sociation was to be changed to the New Britain Chamber of Commerce and that the purpose and scope of the association should be enlarged

to join with Greece, Romania. Ser
via and Montenegro as allies of Rus

latter decide to fight. The Bulgar-
ian army is semi-mobilized and could
be put in the field at once. That
the Turkish menace is real is shown
by messages received here direct
from Constantinople which say the
Turkish army and navy are ready

Turkish warships now have strong
contingents of German sailors and

them.

And yet, these features are an
everyday occurrence in the titanic
struggle of nations, so common
that they hardly draw passing
notice from the stern military
chiefs whose absorbing interest in
the general situation does not allow
Of sidelights being thrust vividly in
to the horizon.
When all is said and done, the
news available to date seems to in
dicate that Germans are approach
ing Paris slowly, but surely. To
neither side can be attributed a sue
cess or defeat. Rather, it would
seem that the allied armies are as
suming defense against time. They
are attempting to hold the German
army at the swords point until the
terrible Russian army from the east
shall turn the tide of battle. The
defense seems to be roughly COM
posed of two parallel lines of de-
fense, the advance line fighting un-

for renewalof the fray when their
supporters are forced to maneuver
in the same manner. This method
can easily be seen to be the most eff
fectiye possible against odds. 1t
means that the attacking force must
keep up a continual fight for every
inch advanced. But it means that
time must bring but one result:
The defensive army pushed against
the wall, in the last position which
they can secure and from which
there is no retreat. Or else the
Germans win be knocking at the
gates of Paris q second time. Should
the investment of Paris be accomp-

the German invading force could be

the Russians. Undoubtedly, the
German staff believes the French

to be met first, the one which will
require the army in itsprime to sub

then give battle successfully to the

paper, that the German nation must
succumb.
Japan is kicking up a rumpus In
the East and is attacking the Ger

the scrap is insignificant as COM
pared to the European struggle.
A few dispatches given herewith
give an idea of the manner in
which the war is being conducted: :
Val Cartier, Que, Aug. 3l.-An
unsuccessful attempt to wreck a
troop train on the Canadian North
ern railway, about ninety miles east
of Montreal, by placing an iron rail
across the tracks. was made early
yesterday. according to an announce
ment made here late today by Lieu
tenant Colonel Creelman. comman-
der. of the Twenty-first battery of
Montreal. Running more than for
ty miles an hour. the train brushed
the obstruction into the ditch and
slowed down to a standstill little
further on.
London. Aug. 31.-A long official
statement by the French war Office
reviewing the operations in Bel
GUM and on the French frontier
records new retirement by the al
lied forces, while at tine same time
an optimistic reference is made to
the opposition with which the
French and British are meeting the
German advance. No definite de-
tails are forthcoming regarding the
general battle which is evidsn ly in
progress all along the line.
Washington. Aug. 3l.-Moving of
the seat of government from Paris
f
to Bordeaux is under consideration
by France. the official adyices state.
Neutral diplomats convey the in
formation that 10000 British for
three days checked 200 600 Germans.
Where the battle took place is not
known here.
Sofia. Aug. 3l.--Reports from
Constantinople that efforts are being
made by the German diplomatic rep
resentation there to get Turkey to
take an active part in the European
war as an ally of Germany and Aus
tria, have created sensation here.

A Snap in Land.

Is there any man in the county
who has been renting and now has
about $500 in cash and few mich
cows that would like to get hold of
q quarter of good farm land within
quarter of mile of the town of
Temvik? IF 80, he will do we'll to
write the Record. This is a snap
for poor man. With few cows
to keep up the interest-onIy six
per cent-and the crops to pay the
notes. man can earn his own land
on this quarter. This is snap that
doesn't come every day in the year.
Let's hear from YOU if you are in
terested. This land belongs to a
nonresident who is unable to look
after his property as it should be
and wants to get it off his hands.

THE war.

.
1t is month now since the dogs
OF war were unclaimed in Europe
and everybody started out to lick"
everybody else. and especially Ger
many. And as yet, there has been
no decisive turn to the history in
the making across the water. How
ever. it may be said that the min
ions Of the great War-Lord have
been doing wonders in battle and
sheer force of numbers, without re-
gard to loss of life, has been ac-
complishing all that could be ex-
pected in clearing the Germans
road to Paris.
1t is hard to describe the fighting
of "a battle" during the past week.
1t has been one, long continuous
procession of battles. each leaving
its terrible death.toll to mark the
progress of the German arms. One.
thing is certain. When this war is
over, should it cease tomorrow,
which it won't, there will be lots
more room for expansion at home
on the part of the male population
of Europe. Certainly the women
should be in the preponderance and
suffrage should fly high. Perhaps
remarks like the above are moreior
less facetious in the presence of such
dire calamity. But it seems that
all Europe has gone crazy and the
least-important Of all is the matter
of life.
Not battle has been fought that
the same story does not come back
The Germans, in close formation,
rushing to the assault only tovbei
moved down by hundreds while
other hundreds took up the task ;.
success finally resulting from the
force of numbers. In one place
some 10000 English soldiers are
said to have held 100000 Germans
for four days. finally wearing them
selves out and being forcedsto retire
in order to keep from being lso-
lated. 81

INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION

October IL to "a inclusive have
been selected as the dates upon
which the Fourth Annual North Da-
kota Exposition is to be held in Bis
narck. As usual it is to be under
the personal supervision of Hon F.
c. Gilbreath. commissioner of agri-
culture and labor.
Never sirce the first exposition
was held have the business men Of
Bismarck taken the interest in the
enterprise which they are taking
this season. The Commercial Club
is back of the plan and is pushing it
vigorously. The ladies Of the city
are taking a hand and are pushing
the work diligently.
Bigger Than Ever,
The exposition is to he bigger and
better than ever. The exhibits are
to be more extensive. and naturally
through favorable conditions pres
ent. more excellent. Several coun.
ties have signed for space. while
business interests have taken the en-
tire third floor for exhibits.
Prominent among the exhibits
will be that Of the Board of Control,
which will occupy seven depart
ments. The exhibit of the board
last year was excellent, but will be
eclipsed this year. There will be
exhibits from state institutions un-
der the jurisdiction of tie board.
Premium List Larger.
The premium list has been great
iy stimulated and increased. and
there will be splendid inducements
in this direction. Cash premiums
in the amount Of SIS, 900 are offered.
The Northern Pacific has prepared
its list and signed up. and it is ex-
pected that other roads will do like
wise,
Entertainments.
Extensive arrangements have been
made for entertainments. There
will be the regular vaudeville enter
tainments in the exposition auditor
ium, which is guaranteed to be up
to the usual standard of such enter
tainments held at the exposition.
This year will be no exception, un-
less. possibly, it will be better. The
management has arranged for the
very best going. There will be band
concerts. addresses and lectures. a
number of carnival shows and one
continuous round of pleasure inside
the exposition, while the CONNER
mercial Club is arranging for out
door sports in the way of baseball,
foot ball. automobile races. civic
and industrial parsdes.
: .
There will be an array Of educa-
tional. Industrial. agricultural and
stock exhibits. These have been
growing better each year and judg-
ing from those registered. the dis.
play this year will be tine greatest
in the history Of the exposition.
Special Days.
Special days will be reserved fol-
the counties making displays at the
exposition, and each of these will
prove q big advertising card for the
counties represented. There will BIZ
