WooLLY CLOTHES THE
STYLE THIS WINTER

LONDON, Nov. 20-By The Associ-
ated Press)-Dame Fashion has set
her stamp of approval on woolens for
this winter, for no other reason APP
parently than the very high cost of
such materials.
The most woolly of jumpers, jackets,
hats, stockings, scarves, gloves and
nearly every other article of women's
and mems apparel which may be
made of wool, are in great demand at
increased prices. Where actual wool
is used, it must be heavy looking of
the extremely fuzzy variety. Where
it is not used other materials must be
made to appear as woolly as possible.
Except by those with whom costs
are necessarily a consideration, the
forthcoming season of woolens is
cordially welcomed. 1t is regarded as
a becoming fashion and rather a
change from hardness of line and ma
terials which can only be worn well
by the very young.

YANKEE SOLDIERS Spelling
HUN GIRLS, is COMPLAINT

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
IN GERMANY, Oct. 81. (By The As
ISOLATED Press).-Among the civilians
in the American occupied area com
plants, originating with the German
men, are often heard to the effect that
the American soldiers are spelling"
the German girls by heaping luXuries
upon them and by spending money
recklessly for presents, wines and
good things to eat.
Since the characterization regula-
ton was revoked by army headquart-
ers several weeks ago the cafes in
Coblenz have been crowded each night
with soldiers and frauleins, and many
of the German men have openly as
serted that the Americans were en-
tirely too c~onsiderate of the German
m and girls.
Cafes in Coblenz and other towns
in the zone held by United States
troops have been doing lately the
greatest business of their existence.
One in Coblenz which is conducted
by two Americans who recently OBJ
tanned their discharge from the army,
seats twenty-five hundred persons.
Yet on Sunday afternoons and even
ings, the crowd becomes sc great, Am
orleans and Germans all together,
that on several occasions the military
police had to be called to maintain
order.

Serbia In Fine
Physical Condition
Says Late Observer

BELGRADE, Oct. 31-By The Asso-
ciated Press) Serbia is on it's feet
again. The people have recovered
from the immediate effects of the war.
The crops this year are exceptionally
good. There is now plenty of food
in the country. There is, however, a
shortage of clothing, shoes and fabrics
of all kinds. Farming implements
and machinery of every variety also
are much needed.
The physical condition of the people
is excellent. In some of the remoter
districts there is lack of doctors and
certain essential medicines, but this
need gradually is being met by the
American Red Cross physicians, who
have established free dispensaries and
clinics at many points.
Reports frequently go out from
Serbia hat the country still is in
dire need. The writer, who has
traversed the whole of the country
and investigated conditions among the
population, is in a position to say
these statements are groundless.
There is poverty in the country, to be
sure, but it is a poverty that is chron-
ic to Serbia, as it is to most other
Balkan countries. There will always
be a small percentage of people who,
either because of disability or indiffer-
ence, do not work and who become
charges on the public.
The flour sent in by the United
States Food Administration, the food,
clothing and medicines given by the
American Red Cross, the generous
contributions of the Serbian Relief
Fund, and the unending aid of the
British relief societies, has put the
people in a condition of health and
comfort scarcely known before.
1t is probable Serbia will be able
this ear to export a part of its fine
crereal crops. The rich Banat region
which was wrested from Austria has
produced one of the greatest crops
of cor and wheat in it's history. Some
of the enormous yield will be SEN to
other countries in trade for coal, oil
and other needed articles.

HOUSEHOLD WEIGHTS

For the benefit of the housekeeper,

This includes weights and measures

MOntenegrO'S Internal
QuarrelS Continue
As Before The War

CETTINJE, fundamentally The
Associated Press)-While the Allied
statesmen at Paris are celebrating
on the fate of the nations of Europe,
Montenegro continues its century-long
customs of feuds, vendettas, shooting
trays and internal strife, and seems
outwardly to give little attention to
the fate reserved for it by the Great
Powers.
There is a semblance of a local gov
eminent, but Serbia exercises a pre-
ponderating influence in the affairs of
the country.
There is a faction of the people
which desires a return of King Nicho-
las and the restoration of the mon
achy. There is constant strife be-
tween the royalists and the republi-
cans, the disorders usually taking the
form Of fatal shooting combats in the
mountains. Feeling u high. The
republicans accus the monarchists of
hiring members of the Comitadje,
desperate mountaineers who respect
neither law o life, to kill the lead
ers of their party. These shooting
and ~stabbing affairs usually take
place in sections where the royalists
are the strongest. The. casualties
sometimes are serious. Not a day
goes by but the American doctors at
tached to the Red Cross Mission at
C%ettinje, ~Podgoritza and Kolacin are
not called Upon to great victims of
these encounters. At Podgoritza there
have been as high as 90 wounded
comitadjes at the Red Cross hospital
at one time.
There also are occasional border
fights between the Montenegrins and
the Italians and Albanians. The feel
ing between these races is extremely
violent. When The Associated Press
correspondent was passing through
the small frontier town of Plavnitza,
at the head of Lake Scutari, there
was a massed company of $50 Mon
tenegrins preparing to attack an Itali-
IN garrison on the opposite side of
the lake. Many of these Montene-
grins, who were poorly clothed and
equipped, were mere boys of 16 and
II. Some of the older soldiers had
been to the United States and boast
ed American citizenship. All profess
ed a desire to give up fighting and re-
turn to America. The attack on the
Italians took place the next day, and
many casualties on both sides are re-
ported.
Slightly smaller than the State of
Connecticut in area, Montenegro has
a population of less than a quarter of
a million. Even this small number
find it difficult to get enough out of
the soil to support life. The country
is rocky, desolate and barren. 1t
might be called a huge pile of stones.
An American visitor remarked that
it's national emblem should be a tomb
stone. Its mountains for the most
part are woodless and bare, and its
valleys are made productive only by
careful husbandry of the soil and in
tensive farming.

powerful part in the organization of
war work and the carrying out Of
great schemes is that their entire lives
have been given to thinking large.
To those who know the constant
Strain on the organizing powers OF
tfeh and fashionable women, il is
amusing to hear the sfghs OF the mid
die class or poorer woman for the en-
Niable idleness of those with money.
They have no idleness. They are not
permitted TO be al leisure. They can
not do things in a niggardly way. They
do not lie abed all day, go where they
will. disregard their many servants,
and know nothing Of the price OF but

field of large opportunity of heavy re-
9ponsibility, her trained perceptions

their opportunities are widely diff
ferent, the climate each one chooses
calls for apparel all its own.
There are, however. few funda-
mentals that interest all women. They
are available for nll climates and or
most places. Barring the camp, the
canoeing trip and walking through
the mountains there are some clothes
that do for all circumstances.
Strange to say the blue serge froC!S

TO heavy Chinese Shantung. to woollen

to silk poplin.
