Chicago, July S.-City officials of Evanston, Chicago's exclusive North Shore suburb have decided that advertising has paid entirely too we'll A year ago Charles Ward was hired by the city as it's $6,000- a-year advertising specialist, to ox- tol the advantages of the suburb as a summer resort. As a result the city aldermen declared home town folks were crowded out of their own parks, beaches and amuse- ment places.
 Mayor Harry PearsonS yesterday instructed the police to enforce a new ordinance prohibiting autOmo- piles without the Evanston license from parking near the beaches, parks and on downtown streets.

Scouts Win in Seventh

Tn one of the most senSatlonai rallies ever staged by team wear ing the Scouts uniform, Paragouio want into the seventh with the score seven to. two against them, and batted out twelve hits for total of nine runs. To MT. Lee J. Wells the new catcher, goes the credit of busting up one good ball game. With the bases loaded in the seventh and the count two and nothing on Wells, he clouted one to deep right for three bases and cleaned the sacks. It was the most timely blow of the game, as it seemed to serve US an inspiration to the rest of the team, because base knocks rattled the whole field for the next few minutes.
 A small crowd was on hand to witness the start, the light after noon showers holding back most of the rooters. The Scouts had several new faces when they took the field. among them being Wells, behind the plate. Bleir on third, and Cope in center.
 The visitors played good baseball and originally would deserve win, but the Scouts had on their hitting clothes and nothing could stop them yesterday. For the Black Cats T. Mannigan at short, and Callahan at first featured with their hitting and fielding. In the first inniuE with one on, T. Manniean hit one over left field. fenssa for circuit flrG smash. P. Mannigan, in left pulled the fielding feature of the game, when he leaped and snatched Cope's hard line drive out of the air in the eighth. T. Mannigan, Pinkston. and Callahan executed fast double rlay in the sixth, and Gwynn, Wood- ward, and clark duplicated the feat for the Scouts in the seventh.
 The batting of the Scouts. as d whole, was a feature of the day, every man getting one or more hits, and their fielding bordcred on the sensational several times. The in- field had twelve assistants. Here is the way the scouts scored in the ninth. Woodland led off with a sin gle, Porter walked, and Mcdonald walked. Up came MT. Wells and his xlugging war club. As told above with the count two and nothing, Wells caught one of Pfeifers' fast ones on the nose and drove it right for three sacks. Wells also was the

FIRM BARS SELF
 N AIDE BLONDES AND SHORT HAIR
Insurance Co.,, Says 90 Pct. of Women Thus Adorned Are of No Use in Business Office.

Hartford, Conn.,, July 9.--Extem- poraneous blondes and girls with bobbed hair have no place in Ameri- can business life, F. K. Daniels, president of the Aetna Insurance Company, employing 5000 women throughott the country, said Thurs day. The company recently issued a mandate that no more artificial blondes or bobbed heads would be employed, and that employees already ill either category would have to get back to normalcy as rapidly as possible.
 Artificial blonde hair is sign of light headedness,' Daniels de- clared. ''Blondity is mark of lack Cl intelligence. If any more bobbed haired girls or blondes get into our offices they will have to crawl through the keyhole.
 There are some in this office now of them as soon as possible. Of course, we cant make any set rule but we have advised these girls to drop all artificiality at once.
 ''The Swedish blonde is very pret- ty even if she bobs her tresses, and she is diligent, faithful and studiOus. It is the brunettes who use peroxide who get me. Business researches have proved that 90 per cent of blondes are useless. All women who bob their hair are useless. Some say they have cut their hair to avoid the heat, but I can tell you there is q hotter place waiting for them.
 My idea of business woman is one who has had two or three years |of college work, does not powder her nose, does not watch the clock, does not rouge her cheeks and does not smoke cigarettes.
 "I can tolerate the woman WhC lays aside her corset. That is com fort. But it is carrying comfort too far to bare ones self in bobbed hair lulHh tue lllONltS dit ltopOllolDIt for girls doing this.
 q don't wish to give the im- pression that women should neglect their dress. I believe business girls should be attractiyely garbed in pure business style, the same as business men.
 When you're dishing out my em- ployes, for Gods sake give me long haired brunettes.'
 The shorter the hair, the shorter the skirt, the nearer to hell, ac- cording to the Rev. D. J. Jaxhiemer Iof Hartford.
 "The levity of American women regarding dress and appearances as tonishes me- he said. "It is evi- dence of the moral laxity of the present age. Bare legs and blondes should be eliminated.

Selling Later
Pressure Subjected Again
in Final Hour, Causing
Irregular Trend at the
Close; Money Rates Drop

After the precipitous declines of
Monday the moderate recovery, which
began late in the previous session, con-
tinued yesterday. With activity still
fairly broad, though less so than on
Monday, buying by shorts who desired
to take profits, persisted, and more
than Offset the speculative forces max
ing for reaction. In the last fifteen
minutes there was q renewal of press
ure against some of the industrials,
however, and the final tone was irregu-
lar. Rails, which had been easier
early in the session. came back later
+ and most Of the issues closed with
slight net gains.
/ The market at present Is so sensi-
tive to the maneuvers of speculative
groups that its change of trend came
without any significant change in the
tenor Of the news. AS matter Of
fact, the Omaha yesterday deferred
consideration of dividends on the COM
mon and preferred stocks for the first
half of the current year.
And yet two developments facili-
tated the continuation of the recovery
before the sharp break of industrials
toward the close. In the first place,
speculative credit, which as late as last
week had been stringent, became super
abundant yesterday. The renewal rate
was pera cent, and later funds were
offered on the floor of the exchange for
| 5h per cent, the lowest quotation
since April Z. Outside funds were Of
fered at Az per cent, and some could
not find borrowers even at that figure
| 1T was reported that the money desk
at the Stock Exchange had at one time
during the day s14,oOo,O0o which it
could not place.
Then too, the European exchanges,
led by sterling, were extremely firm,
although all the gains were not held
through the day. Sterling made a net
gain of cents, as the demand for for
eign bills expanded. Evidently, the
Germans at present are out of the
market for dollars, and the lifting Of
the selling pressure against the Euro
pean currencies has induced those
short of exchange to cover and those
needing bills for commercial purposes
to bid for the foreign exchanges.
In spite of the firmness in the inter
national money market, cotton prices
were slightly easier at the close, and
grain prices lower. Raw sugar prices,
which have been subjected to pressure
for weeks, touched new low again

Call Money Plentiful

Call money literally went a-begging
in Wall Street yesterday. A plethora
of such funds existed, whereas week
ago there was real and pressing
shortage. At one time the money desk
at the Stock Exchange had $14,0o0,0oo
which it could not place. Nobody
seemed to want money. And in the
outside market over the counter the
same condition obtained. A leading
banking firm tried all the afternoon
to put out si,ooO,0oO and offered to let
it go at Az per cent against almost
any kind Of good collateral, but with
SUDDEN sud sne'fne Increase money supplies
seemed to be found in the fact that
funds are piing up here in anticipation
Of the large Treasury operations dur
ing the balance of the week. Temper
arily this places the banks in the posi-
tion of having q temporary surplus Of
funds and the most natural thing for
them to do is to put the money out on
call until such time as it is drawn
against. 1t is the usual experience
before Federal tax payments dates for
the banks to come into a temporarily
easy position.

Outlook for Investment Rates

People are making q mistake In dis
eliminating against bonds that are
callable at a premium Of from 5 to 10
points, remarked a close student of
investment conditions Snd the trend of
money rates yesterday. There is SO
much financing still to do, that it
would seem unlikely, his argument
ran, that any appreciable number of
the bond issues which have been
recently put out with high coupon
rates and provision for redemption
at from 5 to 10 points above par will
be in position to raise 20 or 80
million dollars new cash at q price
so much lower than they are now pay
ing that they will be able to afford to
go to the expense of putting out
new issue of bonds with low coupon
rates, to retire we'll distributed issue
of higher coupon bonds. This argu-
ment, which was based on a compre-
hensive study Of world requirements
for capital, points toward q much
slower decline in interest raves FOR in
vestment money than would be sug-
gested by the current comment of many
bond men,

A Banker's View ON Cuba

Cuba's present plight with respect
to its large surplus of unsold raw
sugar, which is piled high in ware
houses on the island, is blamed by a
prominent international banker partly
to the action of the Cuban Sugar Com
mission in refusing to sell sugar
earlier in the year excepting at its own
price. "The commission had an op-
portunity to sell sugar to England
and France and other European coun-
tries" the banker said, "but it held
its price up. Whereupon those coun-
tries proceeded to buy in Java and
other sugar markets and in this man
ner covered their needs for many
months to come without having to take
any of the Cuban product" The
banker admitted the situation in Cuba
is extremely serious, but he saw no
immediate steps that could be taken by
the bankers to solve the present prob
lems Several months from now he
thought things may have turned for
the better sufficiently to make it pos
sible for Cuba to come to this country
for material assistance.
