Says Highbrows No
 Smarter Than Lows

Chicago.-.14o9 brows are just as smart as hiGhbrows.
 That is straight from Professor H. R. Mayberry, of the psychological de- partment of the University of Chicago, who today announced conclusions reached after many years of study. dur ing which he examined and measured ,, 900 heads to determine the relation between skull formation and intelli- gence.
 The real index to intelligence from head measurement is the distance from the ear to the top of the head" Pro lessor Mayberry said. The greater the distance from the ears to the peak of the dome, the greater the intelii- gence of the persons.
 Nothing was found to support the theory that you can judge intelligence by the height or width of the fore head"

Grain Stocks,
Soaring High
BY United Press Leased Wire

CHICAGO, July 23.-Grain fu-
lures rallied following an opening
dip aud at the finish of trading to-
day scored sensational advances.
Wheat went into new ground on
the crop by increases ranging from
6M to 3S cents. Corn and oats
were sharply higher.
Trend of wheat was in an up
ward direction after the opening
slump. Appearance of rust in
South Dakota and parts of Manitoba
converted the market into one of
war time activity. The general
feeling was one of supreme conf
dence over the future outlook. Ex-
pero business was favorable but
the exact amount worked was not
ascertained.
Corn followed wheat, good buying
developing when the bread grain
strengthened Growing conditions
over the entire domestic belt was
reported as ideal. 4
Oats made sympathetic gains.
Some sales in September were re-
placed in December.
Provisions closed showing little
change from an earlier rally.
