STATEMENT OF RESERVE BANKS REFLECTS VOLUME, Chicago, Aug.”18.—The importance} ofthe debit statements: issued by the | statistical department of the Federal! Reserve bank here, were emphasized | recently by Frank H. Huston, mana- ger of this department, as represent- ing more aceurately the actual vol- | ume of current banking business than ; ig gleaned from the reports of the var- | ious clearing house associations, “The debits to individual accounts : afe collected from twenty-four clear-; ing house centers in this district for; the week:ending Wednesday night and; are made available for use Sunday: morning,” said Mr. Huston. “These! debits represent all checks paid by/ banks. j “The clearings as given out by the! clearing house represent only those: checks paid by banks other than that | on which check is drawn, and while | fairly representative of the volume ot | current business, ‘we Have satisfied | our own minds that. it is not as close; an index as the debits. | “For instance, if the International | Harvester company should draw its; payfoll checks against the banks car- rying its balances, either in bulk or! for individual employees, the check | would not appear in the clearings un-| til it had been paid out or’put In some bank and checked against by the | eimployee. Necessarily the payroll! check is a very important feature in analyzing business conditions and vol- ume. ‘“The .American Bankers associa- tion’ two years ago indorsed the idea Gt conipiling debits to individual ac- counts which are furnished by the in- dividual banks to the clearing house managers and by clearing house man- agers to us. Our own experience shows that the trend in these debits | indicates’ a change about one week: earlier than the clearing house ex-| changes, or so-called clearings.” CANNED MUSIC TO QUIET NERVES OF TIRED CLERKS - Minneapolis,“ Minn., -Aug. 18.— To soeth the nerves of the crew of mail clerks on duty at the postoffice here from 7 P.

By Newspaper Enterprise Chicago, Aug. 18.—If you want to catch a rich husband this year, girls, you'll have to be “snugglers.” The “snuggler” as a type of femi- nine beauty has supplanted the “little vamp,” the “baby doll” and all the other types of yeSteryear. That’s the verdict of Florenz Zeig- feld, jr., America’s greatest authority on female ‘pulchritude. “The ‘snuggler’ is going to be the ideal show girl type this year—and that means she'll be the ideal beauty type offstage as well,” the musical comedy ,impressario says. MARILLYN MILLER, WHO IS FLO ZEIGFELD’S: IDEA OF THE “The ‘snuggler’ is small, but not too-small. She’s witty and clever and has lots of pep. She’s a good dancer. She has lovely eyes, smiling lips and shapely limbs.. : “The ‘snuggier’ is a mixture of powder, perfume and TNT.' ; “Her hair? Oh, it can be either bobbed or ‘in curls. Yes, she'll wear short skirts and open work stock- ings. “If you*want to see the ‘snuggler’ in real flesh and blood, take a slant at Marillyn -Miller. She's: my ideal of beauty. She’s not a ‘cutey’ type, but she’s full of vivacity, pep and grace.” MLLE. LENGLEN BACK ON COURTS Forest Hills, N.

Mrs. Mallory said‘ she, too, would be pleased to encounter Madamoi- selle, under more conclusive circum- stances, Those who overheard the conver- sation in the veranda box which the Gallic tennis expert occupied, believed it indicated arrangements for a special match between , the two would be started.

Asa noyel this story has attained a popularity which has not been. equall- ed by any. other book in a decade. As a play the success of his work was phenomenal and as a_picturization under the direction of Mr. Wright the story bids fair to. mark an‘epoch in the arc of the silent drama. The pictures have been taken in the heart of the Ozark Mountains in Arkansas. Mr. Wright and his asso- ciates have been engaged for months agegmentresastas SOCIETY AT ATLANTIC CITY in this great work. No expense has been spared. ‘No detail overlooked. The countless millions who are famil- iar with Mr. Wright’s style and de- scriptive ability; those who “under- stand in even a limited way the scope- less possibilities of the motion-picture camera can’ readily realize that the great. word-picture of this author should in the world of reel pictures in- deed be works of art.
