RENEW EFFORTS ID
 PIERCE PAVE LINE
TeutOns Force Italians to Give Ground at Mont AsOIeOne-On Lower Part of Front Austri- ans Cross River.

New York, Dec 19.-The Austro- Germans have renewed in great strength their effort to pierce the Italian line and debauch out upon the plains of Venetia in the region of Bassano. In fierce fighting around Mont Asoleone, in hich the enemy again suffered severe losses, and sev- eral times was repulsed, reinforce ments in large numbers were brought up and the Italians were compelled to give ground. The fighting lasted all through Tuesday and. according to the German war office, more than g. GOO Italians were captured.
 Likewise, along the southern reach es of the Piave river, the invaders and the Italians are engaged in heavy fighting. A crossing of the Old Piave on pontoon bridges was successfully carried out by the enemy attachments but later the Italians drove back the Teutons to the waters edge.
 The fighting on the other fronts still remains below normal, although the artillery duels on various sectors continue intense. The artillery activ- ity between the French and Germans in Champagne and in the mountainous regions near the Swiss border is in creasing in volume, probably fore casting infantry attacks at an early date. There has been no change on the front in France. Infantry fight ing has not increased and the artil- lery continues to be active in certain centers.
 Field Marshal Haig, the London Times says, is making important changes in his headquarters staff. The British commander iR chief in France has made virtually no change since he took over the command from Wis count French.

must give a detailed answer to the question propounded by Trotsky.
 The evening newspapers announce that Trotsky has sent a communica- tion to the allied embassies, which they have not received up to this time, notifying them of the armistice and of the beginning of peace negotia- tions and asking them to participate. The communication states that Russia and the central powers will receive all the allies with open arms, but if the allies continue a policy of "sabot- age' Russia will be forced to break the treaties made by the imperial government and to make a separate peace. Trotsky points out that the negotiations for an armistice already have reached definite results and in- vites the allies to state whether they wish peace or not.

RED CROSS SEALS

Upon Gov. Broughs return Decem- Der 9th, from Washington, one of his
 first official acts was to address a communication to the public urging support of the sale of Red Cross Seals for the benefit of the Arkansas Pub lie Health Association, which seeks to give every county an anti-tubercu- losis campaign under the supervision of visiting nurse. Gov. Trough is- sued the following statement:
 "The Arkansas Public Health Asso- ciation, which is a branch of the Ma tional Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, is carry ling on very commendable campaign ito place visiting nurses in each county of the State for the care and treat ment of thed readed tuberculosis. It lis estimated by the state health au- thorities that there are 25000 cases of tuberculosis in Arkansas, and last year there were over 2,30O deaths from the great white plague. The Red Cross Seals cost only a penny apiece, and the proceeds from the sale of these seals will be used in placing visiting nurses in every county in Ar kansas, to treat tuberculosis patients. IFifty-four counties of the state have .already been organized by the Arkan- .sas State Health Association. and it is highly desirous that the remaining twenty-three be organized.
 I regard this as one of the most Icommendable humanitarian undertak- ngs that has ever been projected in our State, and the fact that the Pub lie Health Association is under the supervision of Dr. A. C. Shipp as president, and M. A. Auerbach as secretary, both of whom have been interested for years nj sociological work, presages a very useful work being accomplished by the associa- tion."

DO YOU BORROW MONEY!

In the course OF human events 1t
becomes necessary for most people to
borrow money. Business men find 1t
profitable to borrow in order to carry
on business on a larger scale, discount
their bills and carry complete stocks.
Others find 1t desirable at times to
borrow for various purposes. and some
find II necessary to borrow because
they have either failed TO save. or have
been unable 10 save and are confront
ed with an exigency that requires
money.
Should you at any time find yourself
In such O. condition, do not borrow
from your friends. go to your bank.
No banker Will refuse a loan that
meets certain requirements and is in
his estimation good.
In the first place the banker will
expect you to be a deposltor. Most
banks make IL a rule TO lend TO only
those who are customers, and custo-
mers mean depositors. II you favor
the banker with your account, giving
him a profit from the use of your
money, he will be glad to reciprocate
and let you use his money when you
need II and offer the proper security.
The rule Is we'll established TO lend in
the proportion of not over five to one;
that Is. II you keep a balance of 500
the banker would lend you $500, If
he thought well Of your credit stand
ing. The greatest mistake business
men make is TO keep little or no bal
ance In the bank and then expect the
bank TO accommodate them with loans.
A business mar wanted to borrow
800 to meet his payroll. The banker
knew him. His moral standing was
good. In looking up his account his
balance vas but fifty cents. Now what
did that indicator Just this: That the
would be-borrower had trusted every
body until his capital was on his
books, here, there and everywhere,
and he was not collecting his bills.
He had no free money" to carry on
his business. He had no working
capital. He was strapped" The
banker vas perfectly justified in ask
ing the borrower either to make better
collections, or to get his affairs in
such shape that when payday came
he would o have to depend upon
borrowed money 10 pay his men.
Nothing so hurts an applicant for a
loan In a we'll managed bank as a low
average balance, and all good bankers
give heed to this factor. Therefore, as
a starting point, do your business
through a bank. depositing you re-
ceipts and making your payments by
check, and keep a balance large
enough to gain the bankers good will
when he looks at his ledgers to see
how much Of your own money you
have available when the needs of bust
ness require. Don't do all your bust
ness on borrowed money, for if the
banker finds it out, he won't take your
note.
