For the benefit Of those who live in the surrounding cities
and towns of Monmouth and Middlesex counties, and who may
desire to visit this city on "Visit Perth Amboy Day and hear the
music of the United States Marine Band, the Evening News today
publishes a schedule of trolley, bus and train service as well as
giving a description of the best automobile route.
Every effort has been made to have this schedule correct, but
due to the fact that daylight saving time ends next Sunday it is

Behold the transformation
wrought by the reformation of the
fapper!
At the left you recognize the
closeup real view of what has been
the most-talked-of issue since the
war, the bobbed head-in its natur-
al state.
Passing on, you see what seems
to be a lovely head of hair. done in
a sweet, womanly way.
It's the same girl and the same
hair, with the addition of some
more in the way of a switch, design
ed particularly for the growing-out
period.
Picture three shows how elabor-
ate u structure may be erected on a
said to be one of the best screen Of
ferirgs of the year. Like The Child
Thou Gavest Me-" it's predecessor
in the Mayer-Stahl series, The Song
of Life" is a human interest drama
in which the story is kept of para
mount importance.
The plot centers around a white
haired woman, who, years after she
has parted from home and husband
because of her hatred for house
work, finds her W sons wife de-
sp!sing the same homely tasks
which brought unhappiness into her
own life. The young wife obtains
outside employment so hat she may
earn money to pay the elderly
woman to do the homework. AS a
result of this change the husband be-
comes jealous of another man. A
dramatic climax takes place in
which mother-love brings back hap
piness out of chaos.
The characters are interpreted by
an all-star cast containing CASTOR

RISES IN DEFENSE OF FLlRT
According to English Author, FickIe-
ness Is Simply Natural Desire
to Be Liked by All.

II like being adored,' she said, "eyen
though l dislike the person who adores
me-
you n express that more simply
by saying, I'm a f%irt,'" said Philip.
"But it's such an ugly word. Be
sides. everyone likes being adored {;
everyone is n flirt in that ems It's
only the people who never are adored
who call it flirting. They would like
to be adored, but as they can't, they
call the rest of us rude names. But
it's no use going about trying to be
adored because nobody has the least
idea as to how to set about it.. It's
not the least use being kind and hon
est and amiable, for that only makes
you mildly popular, while the most
disagreeable people get w%orshiped.
And it isn't any good being beautiful.
/ dare say beauty hurries people up,
because there is obviously something
rather attractive about it, but it's not
a bit of good by itself. Perhaps brains
have got something to do with it, or
is there a sixth sense which directs
it all?"-From Lovers and Friends"

NOTED PRELATES IN LONDON
Leo XIII and Plus XII Said t. Have
Been Familiar With tho British
Metropolis.

The new pope, Plus II, visited Lon
don as well as Oxford In early life,
in the latter place especially the great
Bodleian library naturally attracting
such a great scholar. He was himself
librarian of the great Vatican library,
and known everywhere as a boOklover.
1t was said that the late Pope Leo
XIII knew his way about London bet
ter than a great many natives, as he
had spent much time there before be-
ing raised to the papacy, exploring
the slums and other problems In the
metropolis.
Pope Leo XIII was the only one of
that exalted rank who ever sat In the
British house of and In the
distinguished strangers gallery, at
that. He also is said to have enjoyed
the hospitality of Lord Palmerston
under that distinguished s~tatesman's
own roof. That was, of course, before
his e~xaltation to the papacy.

WASHINGTON, June I9.-The an- nual naval appropriation bill, carrying approximately $295, ,45O,O ,OO0 and provid ing for an enlisted personnel of S6.OOO men. was passed late today by the senate and sent to conference with the house.
 Action on the enlisted personnel. now about 115 5000, is final, as the sen ate accepted the house decision and the question will not come before the conferees. who will deal principally with senate increases of about $44.- 100000 over the house bill. There was no record vote on final passage, and no effort was made to reduce the enlisted personnel.
 Unsuccessful efforts to end Ameri- can occupation of Haiti, the Domini- can Republic. and Nicaragua, and to launch a congressional investigation of navy administration, marked the final days debate. An amendment by Senator King, Democrat, Utah, pro viding for withdrawal of American marines from the two republics and Nicaragua. December 31. next, was re. jected 42 to g.
 Investigation of naval administra- tion was proposed by Senator McCorr mick, Republican, Illinois, but his res olution drew objection from Senator Dial, Democrat, South Carolina, and was referred to the naval committee. It contemplated a survey to abolish useless navy yards and stations.
 An amendment by Senator King to cut the marine corps from 19,500 men to 17,500 men was rejected without a record vote.
 Supporters of the King withdrawal amendment declared that American intervention in Haiti, Santa Domingo and Nicaragua was causing feeling in Latin-America and also in Europe. against the United States.
 Senator Pomerene declared it would be little short of a crime" to termin- ate American supervision in Haiti so soon, while Senator Oddie charged that German propaganda in support of American withdrawal had been cir culated by interests in German-owned property in Haiti.

.U. S. Oil Interests
 on Concerted Action
 and Huerta to Confer

NEW YORK, June 19.-The five oil company heads who are to open a ser ies of conferences tomorrow with Adolfo de la Huerta, Mexican minis ter of finance. will place before him a proposition that their companies act in concert rather than individually in leaving the coast country to prospect for oil in the inland sections of Mex ico This was stated authoritatively tonight with Ghe explanation that the American oil men believe the oil-bear- ing land along the Mexican Gulf coast has all been proven or disproven by now, so that those seeking new fields must move into virgin territory. Should oil be found inland, petroleum officials contend, i'd would be too ex- pensive for each of the companies to build separate storage, pumping and pipe line facilities to the sea, and to build their own roads to the prospec. tive fields. So they wish to reach an agreement permitting them to consol- idate in this work.
 The oil officials who are to meet de Ia Huerta tomorrow to take up this matter, and others connected with the Mexican petroleum situation. are the same five who reached an agreement with the Obregon administration ir Mexico City last fall, by which the tax situation was made more bearable,' as one of them expressed it.

 Notables Are Present

LONDON, June 19.-(By The Asso- ciated Press.) - Britain's foremost statesmen, jurists, and lawyers, and a great body of American friends joined in an impressive reception to William Howard Taft, chief justice of the United States, upon his first night. He was thf guest of honor at the Pilgrims band1et, to which five members of the cabinet, many former cabinet ministers, and the greatest legal minds in the country lent their presence.
 Rarely before has a visiting Amer ican received such a spontaneous welcome. The king, the Prince of Wales, and the Duke of Connaught sent messages of greetings, and the Earl of Balfour and the Very Rev, William Ralph Inge, dean of St. PauPs, testified to the affection and admiration in which Taft is held by the English people.
 Taft was introduced by the Earl of Balfour, who expressed the hope that the distinguished visitor would not measure the warmth of Great Britains greetings by the prevailing chilly weather.
 Taft opened with a graceful tribute to the Earl of Balfour and a com pliment to Great Britain for possess 1 ing such a statesman and voiced his gratitude to the. Pilgrims for this expression of their good will. He proceeded briefly to review the relations between Great Britain and America, in the course of which he said:
 "No trouble arises between the ! two countries that we of America do not all of us look forward to its settlement, either by negotiation oI I by arbitration. Any other event is 1 not considered for moment. This American state of mind is a constant factor in our relations; it sometime; produces an apparent indifference ol ! lack of excitement on the part of ouI ! people over irritating issues that is misleading to the British observer.
