Never was such furry winter No
matter whether milady lives down on
the Gulf of Mexico or up on the Cana
dian border she insists upon furs OF
some sort and wears them regardless
of the thermometer. One might think
we were finally looking to the Esqui-
maux for style inspirations, but coal
less Paris probably set the pace In
furs. When even the meager allow
ance of coal that French women
make out with was denied them, they
enveloped themselves In furs of all
sorts.
Real utility furs for cold climates
make story by themselves. There
are short and long coats and coates
of all sorts of skins from undyed
muskrat up to fine mink and sable.
All the short-haired furs are reoui-
sitioned for these most comfortable
garments. But the most universally
popular furs are In smaller pieces,
wide scarfs, small capes, single skins
worn as scarfs and combination gar
ments, like cape-scarfs and cape-coats
that are having a great vogue.
A pretty cape of caracul is shown In
the picture here. 1t is made In any of
the popular furs with good effect and
often the shawl collar is Of different
kind of fur than the body of the cape.

IRISH REPUBLIC
CLAIMS SET FORTH
Sean T. O'Ceallaigh, Sim Fein Delegate
in Paris, Tells Why the Republic
Asserts Right to Enter Peace
Conference.

Paris May II Correspondence of the
Associated Press Here are the claims
of ''the provisional government of the
Irish republic" to the right to partici-
pate in the peace conference and to join
the league of nations, as free and indie
pendent, laid before the conference in the
form of memorial presented by Pre-.
mier Clemenceau by Sean T. 0'Ceallaigh,
the Sim Fem delegate Of the republic"
in Paris:
ireland is a nation which has exer-
cised the right of elf-determination in
harmony with the principles formulated
by President Wilson, and accepted by the
belligerents as the only sure foundation
for the world peace" read the memo
rial. 1T is not only in the past that
Ireland, generation after generation, has
striyen by force of arms as well as by
all pacific means to regain her national
freedom. At the general election last
December, the issue, and the only issue,
placed before the Irish people was the
independence of their country, and by
majority of more than three to one the
representatives elected by the constitu-
tional machinery of the ballot box are
pledged to the abolition Of English rule
in Ireland.
"In none Of the small nationalities
with which the peace conference has
hitherto occupied itself is the unanimity
of the people so great; in none has the
national desire for freedom been assert
ed so unmistakably and with so much
emphasis.
Following upon the general election,
an Irish national assembly has met; an
Irish republic has been constituted and
proclaimed to the world; a president has
been appointed and with him ministers
to direct different departments of state;
a program of domestic policy has been
issued; and an appeal has been addressed
to the nations of the world to recognize
the free Irish state that has thus been
recalled to life.
But while the national will has been
declared and the mechanism of free gov
eminent is ready, the former is being
stihed and the latter paralyzed by Eng
lands ruthless exercise of military pow
er. The president is a fugitive; the
Irish Parliament is forced to conduct
its business in secret; the most eemen-
tary civil rights are abrogated; courts
martial are Sitting at every center; and
the goals are filed with prisoners, vic
tins of every brutality and indignity,
whose only offense- is that they have
sought the freedom of their native land.
II is in these circumstances that the
Irish nation, through me, ADDRESSES the
peace conference.
ireland manifestly comes within the
scope of the principles that have been
endorsed by civilized nations, and it Is
for the application Of these principles
that the peace conference is now sitting.

her right to freedom, which England, by

FRANCE PREPARING
FOR BIG CELEBRATION
Grand March of the Victorious Army
Through the Streets of Paris Is
Scheduled to Take Place
IuIv IA

Paris, May II Correspondence of the
Associated Press Frances national
fete day, the l4th of July, will witness
scenes Of patriotic fervor probably UNI
paralleled in the history OF the republic,
upon as most appropriate for the grand
march of the victorious French army
through the streets of the capital.
The program is already beginning to
assume definite shape. The route will
be from the Porte Maillot, at the main
entrance to the Bots de Boulogne through
the Are de Triumphe, along the Avenue
DIES Champs Elysees, the Place de la Con-
corde and the Rue de Rivoli to the Place
de la Republique, distance of some
eight miles.
The general outlines OF the scheme of
decorations have been arranged by
body called the French Federation of
Modified Artists of the War l9l4-l9l8,
and festival committee of 40, appoint
ed by M. Laferre, minister of public in
struction, has approved the scheme sub.
mitted.
At the Porte Maillot, between huge
pylons, tribunes will be erected where
the city fathers will welcome the heroes
of Verdun and the Marine. Along the
Avenue de la Grande Armee, decorative
plaques will commemorate battles, the
names of which are household words
throughout the world.
No superfiuous decoration will mar
the architectural beauty of the Arc de
Triumphe, but the vast circus where II
noble avenues converge will be made
into one vast amphitheatre for thousands
of spectators.
Decked with a profusion of flowers and
flags, the Avenue des Champs Elysees
will no doubt offer magnificent spec
taele. A monument representing the
league of nations, symbolizing victory
and peace, will be erected on the Terrasse
des Feuillants, while half way, at the
Rond Point, another monument will re-
call the glorious dead, resurrected and
joining in the triumph OF the living.
The Luxor obelisk on the Place de Ia
| Concorde will form the center of an i'm
mense decorative scheme extending to
| the famous statues representing the chief
cities of France. The decoration of the
other streets through which the pageant
will pass, win be left in the hands Of the
authorities of the different city wards
| Regret is felt in some quarters that
| by July so many of the actual partici-
pants in the great battles win have been
demoblized. This will, however, not de-
tract from the fervent homage that will
be paid to the colors ef the famous
French regiments which covered them
selves with glory.
