WILSON S REPLY HITS COERCION Note to Allies on Adriatic Unyielding in Tone. WASHINGTON, March 3.—President Wilson's reply to the last note of the British and French premiers on the Adriatic question is expected to be put on the cables tomorrow. The note was completed late Monday by the president and sent to the state department. Since then Acting Secretary of State Polk has been putting it into customary diplomatic form. The most important part of the president’s reply is expected to be his answer to the premier’s invitation to Join them in a proposal to Italy and Jugo-Siavla to work out an Adriatic settlement between themselves on the basis of withdrawal of all previous proposals of the allies and the United States. The president will reply that any adjustment arrived at between Italy and Jngo-Slavia without coercion and to the satisfaction of both countries will be acceptable to him, but that he will not abandon tbe general principles of the Dec. 9 proposal as representing the maximum concessions he believes Italy can rightfully have, it was predicted here. Seek 365-Day Year for Coal Industry Coal operators, wholesale and retail dealer* in various parts of the country are now attempting to work out a system whereby the production of coal can be spread over the twelve months of the year, Instead of being confined to a period of about five months, according to a statement issued today from the headquarters of the United Mine Workers of America by Ellis Searles, editor of the Mine Workers’ Journal. The average number of days that miners in the central competitive field were employed In the last six years, 1913 to 1918, Inclusive, were a year, the United Mine Workers officials say.

OUTLINES HIS DESIRES Reluctancs about calling a special session of the legislature Is felt by Gov. Goodrich, according to letters 'from the governor, which republican members of the general assembly are cogitating on today, but the governor expressed no change in his determination to have the session despite that reluctance. Eighteen measures proposed for action at the special session were listed by the governor in his letter and legislators were asked whether they wished to add to the list or to limit, the sessions’s deliberations to emergency matters, whether they thought a party caucus on the eve of the session desirable and whether any of the listed measures might safely be held over for the regular session nine months hence.

Ah, Milady, Spring Is Nigh With Its Usual Array of Smart Garb
By INEZ A. LILES. What are we women to wear this spring? One might well say, next to the league of nations, this Is the most discussed question of the hour, at least among the femininity. And, Indeed, It is a most absorbing question, one we hear over the teacups, in the theaters, the shops, the clubs, everywhere, and after all, why not? Our clothes! They express not only whet we are, but what we want to be. We clothe ourselves for a world to look at, and to Judge us by. In fact, It Is one of the boggest things by which the world can Judge u*. And so, when the first flower of spring (which you must already know Is the arbutus) cautiously peeps Its head from beneath the earth, the feminine mind turns to the new and us the French would say: “Ctre.” Today— Snow and Ice may clutter the pavement. While the chill blasts of a most severe winter keeps ears tingling. / Vet. the spirit of spring is here. Spring, reflected tn wonderful new garments, that will be worn when snow and Ice and cold are forgotten. And here, the story of what women will wear this spring begins.

the answer to every woman’s dress problem. Holding full and undisputed sway come entirely different and wholly charming spring models, with navy blue predominating. A youthful smartness, not to be denied, is found in the Eton or Bolero Jackets, which show very distinctly the Spanish influence. Pony coats, short and chic, have a delightfully smart patent leather piping trimming. Tuxedo, one-link jackets are adorable with their saucy, snugly set shoulders and very, very tight sleeves. While strictly severe taiUeurs, modeled along trig, jaunty lines, have a certitude and sureness of cut which is very likable. AND THEN THERE IS PLEATED SKIRT. Smart opportunity for chicness is found in the accordion pleated skirts, the two-tier, straight line or panelled skirts, while plaid ribbon sashes play a most conspicuous part in making spring suits dashing and fetching to the last degree. Much in favor are wool jerseys, serges, tricotines, polret twills, velours de laines, and In many cases one notices jackets are of one material, with skirts of a large Scotch plaid, a contrast which, by the | way, is most effective. COATS—Methinks fashion's very happiest thought for spring is the polo coat. | M'hy, their very air of out-o'-doors ae- | tlvity makes one long to slip Into their j all-enveloping folds and be gone on some I wonderful pleasure Jaunt. English, to be sure, in swagger and cut, three-quarter, trotteur or short youthful styles, developed in beautiful silken toned camel’s-hair, and polo cloth In natural shades, with deep roomy pockets that you'll simply adore. DOLMAN AGAIN BEING SHOWN. The dolman, which was just a trifle late in arriving last year, is being shown in different versions for elaborate afternoon and evening wear. Not to be forgotten are the general utility coats, developed of polret twills,
tricotines, wbip-cords, gold tones, vl euna and covert coatings. The gossiper think*, never were there sneb perfectly exquisite shades of blue rare lovely browns, and soft glowing tans, all eagerly await choosing at you: bands. DRESSES—Probably the most dellgh*ful thing we can say about the dresses Is: They are so suddenly and thoroughly new and one wonders Just where to begin to tell about them. Taffetas have a way with them thai Is Irresistible, so perk and piquant era they, with their harem and draped skirts, distended hips, puffings and pleating*, And when you shop take a peep at tbi tricolette frocks, so aristocratic and individual are they, In their superb beauty, plain, only perhaps for a bit of odd embroidery or some rare ornamentation used In an artistic manner. For first spring wear and later without a wrap, tailored frocks of polret twill, wool jersey and serge are 'tloned, later they will be quite smart, worn with small furs. Then not to be overlooked are the satin* and georgettes, with their flared or bouffant skirts, round necks, short sleeves, long bodices, frilled, pleated, ruffled and delightful charming hip effects. In colors one's fancy may lead them where it vHII, and they will not be disappointed, for the gamut is run and every color is represented in the new spring dresses. Henry A, Davis Asks County Board Seat Henry A.
