They figured on having the price of coal advanced so that this increase could be taken care of in that way. In other words it would be an arrange- ment where the consumer would foot the bill and everything would be love- Iy for those who look after the pro- duetion of this commodity. \ This, however, doesn't go. The con- 3 enough for L TR LR e e L e T ng to be foreced to pay any more. The increase the miners can have and the way they can get it, aside from working more hours than y have been averaging | in the past, hag been set forth. This does not mean that the will interfere with any operator who is willing to pas employes more money than the government has up- proved, but he cannot make un such increase from an advadce in selling price of coal.

From the first renoris concerning the release of Consul Jenkins there was Indleated a decided improvement in that situation. but with the reve- lation that Jenkins is at liverty only under bonds, furnished by an Ameri- jgan named Hanson, following a con- {ference in Mexico City with Cabrera, M appears that Mexico has not co Dlied with the demands of this go sernment in releasing Jenkins. It ap- ~pears from indications that a . trick has been resorted to to get Jenkins ut of jail. It is therefore a matter n which the state department cannot lose interest and should be eager to learn who is back of the part that Hanson played. At the present time lwhie seems to have interfered with the ctlon of his own government. ever, ' RUMANIA'S POSITION. The supreme council of the peace Zonference is having an opportunity o understand the difficulties connect- d with its work. In spite of its com- manding position all is not milk and iZBoney. And Germany Is not the only country that is giving it trouble, an- swering back and saying what's to be ‘Z4one. No small amount of trouble has been experienced in the effort to *“straighten out the tangle in the Bal- kans. Rumania has balked along with some of the Bthers. It has used all « “itinds of subterfuges to avoid comply- ing with the demands of the peace conference in spite of the fact that it .is numbered ameng the allies. The “grasping disposition and the fighting ‘tendency to be encountered in that .¥egion have been plainly disclosed. It (urefused to sign the Austrian treaty ““ind because of the refusal it was net “permitted to sign the peace treaty with Bulgaria. The Rumanian gov- government ‘ 8 fa {he had made | should he put. . it may 'seem Rumaniia giving encouragement to y by its attitude. Though one it can show that the council is pow- erless.’ {t is however, simply showing the snags that might be ex- GERMANY'S DEFIANCE, Baron Kurt von Lersner, the head of the German peace commission, is quoted as saying what Germany will do and what it will not do. He is showing real defiance and trying to elicit the sympathy of the world over the brutal treatment with which that country, which has been trying to dominate the world, is threatened. The German plenipotentiary is mak- the note which has been sent to Ger- many by the supreme ‘coumcil of the peace conference in which Germany is warned of what it can exbect in case it refuses to sign the protocol providing for 'the putting into effect and the carrying out of .the peace terms. Germany wants to say what it will do and what it will not do. Tt apparently wants to negétiate with the allies regarding certain terms that have already been agreed to and it seeks to escape the making good of the ships destroyed in Scapa Flow by having that matter referred to arbi- tration. It is to be realized that the armis- tice still in effect. It is pessible for the allied pations to send arméd forces into Germany to force it to comply with the terms demanded and of this Germany is fully aware. It is to be rememebred that Germany had considerable to say about what it would or would not do relative to the treaty terms but when the time came they were signed and ratified and there s no reason to believe but what | this will be_the outcome of the present bit of note writing. Germany isn’t anxious to have an armed force invade Its territory. It knows what happened to Belzium and northern France and it signed the armistice to avold these very con- ditions at home. No one is to Liame but itself for the demands of the su- preme council and it will help itself materially. just as soon it comes to that conelusion, \ H. C. FRICK'S GIFT.

But not as chair decorations will they live their resuscitated lives. Instead they will dangle’from the fdir wrist of milady as a bag. Two of them are lined with a silk in a delicate shade, joined together and a draw string inserted. FOR THE LITTLEST GIRL. Here is a gift suggestion for the lit- tle girl of the family who has just be- gun to take an interest in the clothes of her dolls. Get a five pound candy box and line it with a padding of pale pink or blue china silk. To the cor- ners attach by tapes or ribbons a tiny pincushion covered with the silk, an ton around the’neck. . - 0 “Drooping shoulders are ‘!&tmuured by French couturieres for spring.

PETTICOATS GLING TO THE FIGURE Of course while skirts are so nar- row petticoats may not flare and and sometimes, to avoid a sheathlike effect, which is never graceful in a petticoat, the material is gathered in- to a cuff or hem at the ankle. A dainty petticoat of this sort is of white handkerchief finen and is at- tached to a camisole of the same fabs ric. The camisole has three rows of casings in_whigh the linen is slightly shirred. Between these three casings are strips of hand-embroidered linen. Ribbons are run through the casings and form the -shoulder-straps that support- the camisoles. The petticoat is gathered to a beading that attaches 1it o the camisole—no waistband . at lalll And again at the ankie are rows of ribbon run casings and embroider- ed_bands, Btreet petticoats are of wool jersey with deep accordion pleated flounces : of taffeta or satin.
