The democratic State executive
committee which is scheduled to mee-
in Columbia on Tuesday will scarcely
be SO foolish as to call State con.
vention for the purpose Of amending
the rules so that the entries may be
cpened and let others enter the race
for the senate That would necessi-
tate the calling of the clubs together
and having county conventions ali
over the State It would be unfair
and unjust and we do not believe thai
the State executive committee will do

OF Interest TO Women
SILK JERSEY AS WOOL SUBSTITUTE
BY ANNE R1rTEHHousE.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
NEW YORK, April 2.-Rodfer Is the
man who invents fabrics for the civil
ized world.
This statement does not imply tnat
he invents all Of them. and we nave
some extremely good results In this
country from earnest and serious ex-
periments in weaving. dyeing and de-
signing materials. We could go on our
own endeavors for the years to come II
we wished to do so. but no one would
want to take away the glory from Ro'
dier, the master weaver. His work In
Paris has always been accorded the
merit it deserves. and there are no
manufacturers in this country or Eng
land who do not look upon his work
with the respect and admiration given
to a master workman by those In his
own craft.
Therefore. when 1T was known that
Rodier put out superior and durable
weave Of silk jersey that would replace
wooden fabrics, the world received the
news with the Importance it deserved.

ran all over Peter and Mrs. Peter.
Jerry Muskrat didn't hear those faint
sounds as soon as did Peter and Mrs.
Peter. and he was puzzled by their sud-
den appearance of fright. Then he, too,
heard the faint rustling of leaves and
IN an instant understood that there was
some one else in the dear Old Brier
Patch.
Where's that hole you were telling
me about?" he whispered to Peter.
Peter turned frightened eyes to Jerry.
Weasel that hole won't do US bit of
good" he replied. In fact, it would be

decide about its safety later"
Peter hesitated. then not knowing
what else to do he led the way to that
hole which once upon a time had been
the home of one of Johnny Chuck s
relatives. That was before the bram-
bles had sprung UP around 1t and made
the dear Old Brier Patch. Timid little
Mrs. Peter was right at Peters heels,
and bekind her came Jerry. Jerry's
eyes sparkled when he saw that hole
1t made him feel better than he had
felt at any time since the food had
driven him out of his castle in the
bank of the Smiling Pool.
Nearer and nearer came the sound of
light footsteps on the leaves and then
through the brambles they caught sight
of a slim, thin, nimble form in white.
Little Mrs. Peter choked back a little
scream of terror. Peter was shaking
like a leaf. Both seemed to be quite
helpless.
Go down in that house there as
quickly as you know howl" snapped
jerry Muskrat. Go down there this
instant and stop worrying I'll take
care of this fellow. Here's my chance

The Redingote Gown.
When one announces that France
and America have both yielded to the
lure of the short Jacket. there is no In
tention to misiead the women OF the
country into the belief that no other
kind Of coat Is tolerated. One has only
to glance at the exhibitions OF new
clothes to find that short and long
coat are shown within the same ten
minutes. 1t Is a matter of choice.
However. 1t must be admitted that
the long coats are more constantly used
as a part Of frock than as part Of a
, suit. 1t is when one wants to employ
the heavy Jersey that one is apt to see
in the redingote chance for good
work.
Take the sketch today. for instance,
which is a gown designed by Nine.
Georgette of Paris. 1t is made in black
and blue. The long coat gives the eff
feet Of a suit. but is. in reality a red
ingote. In the entire costume there is
no wool. The coat itself is made Of
corded crepe. with wide lapels faced
with white silk. accented by tassels Of
silk thread. There Is a thick blue silk
cord at the waist which ties at the
side. The underslip is Of the heavy silk
