Eaa Type In Hens.

Many poultrymen claim there is an
egg type In fowls and that they can
pick out the good layers a. well a. the
poor ones In Q nock. This claim 10
based ON the theory that certain Pc
culiarities of form or shape. such az
long body. wedge shape. broad rear.
small head. etc., indicate good laying
qualities. Experiments have shown
that hens with long as we'll as short
bodies were Indifferent layers. and
conversely good layers have been
found with short bodies. as we'll az
long ones. So far as tests have gone.

PICK SAME DATE
TO OPEN CAMPAIGN

Just which suffrage organization
will hold a public mass meeting in
Proetor's Theatre on March 30 is a
question that is causing considerable
comment in suffrage circles today.
The Women's Political Union had
decided on that date for a big mass
meeting to open the spring campaign
for the cause"
Recently a member of the Newark
Equal Suffrage League in talking to
member of the Political Union over
the phone remarked that the league
was planning to open the spring cam
paign with a public meeting in Broc-
tors on March 80.
why, that's queer came back the
voice, "our organization has applied
for Proctor's for March 80, l under
stand"
That caused some lively investiga-
ton by representatives of both socle-
ties, which revealed the fact that both
organizations had applied for the
theatre for the same date.
The Womens Political Union, how
ever, went into executive session and
decided to give way to the other So
ciety.
Then the state association heard of
the matter and a special meeting of
the New Jersey Women's Suffrage
hague was called for this afternoon
I'd Settle the matter. 1t Is understood
that at the special meeting arrange
neents will be made for a joint meet
ing on the disputed date by the COM
hfned suffrage clubs in the city.

Head of School Systems Arch

tises Profession Privately.

In direct violation of the estab.
lished rules of the Board. of Educa-
ton, where he is employed at ar
annual salary of $500. Ernest F
Gnilbert supervising architect, has
openly conducted an outside prac-
tise. Though he has admitted that
he has accepted fees from other
cities, and also from outside firms
for work, which he is not permitted
to perform under the rules of the
department, 1t was not until a week
ago that halt was ordered by the
board.
At that time Guilbert and George
W, Knight supervising engineer,
were called to time for their viola :
tions.o The matter, however. was
laid over until the next meeting,
which will oceur on March 27. In
the meantime charges are being pre-
pared against both officials for their
total disregard of the boards rules
and orders.
Guilbert has conducted his work
openly. Since the formal announce
ment that charges would be pre-
ferred against him, Guilbert has re-
tempt to deny that he has been guilty
of any misconduct, nor has he at
tempted to deny that he has used his
office as supervising architect for
the school system to promote his own
private praetisd
The point has been raised that per
haps 81. 500 a year is trife low for
an architect but one of the commits
sioners, when questioned relative to
this point, declared that Guilbert
should have thought of that when he
accepted the pos4iRp. Even though
the salary was only half of its pres
ent figure, the commissioner held that
Guilbert would not be justified in dis
regarding the rules set down by the
board. Just what would be done IN
the matter the commissioner was not
prepared to say
The rules of the board are explicit
and leave no room for doubt. Sec
ton !. of rule II, states that the
construction department shall be d.
vided into three sub-departments,
architectural, engineering and re-
pairs. Section two of the same rules
states. Each department head shall
devote himself exclusively to the du-
ties of his office, supervising and d.
recting the work thereof
Both Guilbert and knight are heads
of departments and therefore come un-
der this ruling. Another section has
to do with assistants in the afore-

Republican State Committee

IFfOm 2 stan
TRENTON, y. j., March 14.-Called
together by the Republican state
Committee for a conference to decide
upon course of action for the
turtherance of party interests, eigh-
teen of the twenty-one Republican
county chairmen and a majority of
the Republican senators and assem-
blymen met here today.
At the suggestion of former Gov
ernor Edward c. Stokes, who called
the meeting to order, an organization
of the county charmen was effected
Herman w. Taylor, chairman of the
Essex county committee, was made
chairman, and Frank ". Davis.
chairman of The Gloucester county
committee and SECRETARY of the Sen
ate last year, was chosen secretary.
In suggesting this organization, for
mer Governor Stokes pointed out that
the county chairmen were elected at
the primaries last fall and thus were
fresh from the people, while the mem

hold-oyers.
The purpose of the suggestion was
10 bring about action for the .reju-
venation of the Republican party in
line. with former Governor Stokes's
suggestion that the rebuilding of the
party should be from the bottom up.
In taking the chair Mr. Taylor pre-
scented to the meeting the statement
made by him to the Essex Republic
cans at the time he was made county
chairman. This was to the effect
that the vote at the last election
showed that the Democratic party
was In the minority, and that it was
only necessary for all Republicans to
unite to ensure victory. He claimed
that in Essex county 80 per cent. of
the Republicans and Progressives
were still Republicans at heart and
were showing tendency to unite.
He said further that the county
committees should not indorse any
candidates or engage in any factional
cSntests.
ut is expected that later this after
noon the meeting will issue an APP
peal to all Republicans in order to
pfesent a united opposition to the
democracy.
Estate Chairman Wakelee was UNI
ahle to be present, but sent message
OF support for the movement.

BY MRS. o. H. p. BELMONT

] am asked why / am about to in
augurate a countrywide agitation for
the appointment Of policewomen as
guardians of law and order
Here is my answer;
Men nave failed so far to remedy
our most serious moral problems and
the hope for possible reform of life
now lies with the women of the
world! Questions involving the pro-
lection or the reformation of our
girls must now be solved, If at all,
by women and women alone!
Under the present man-supervised
regime of life there are all sorts Of
criminals rampant.
There are criminals against child
hood-those who seek evil opportuni-
ties in the moving picture show and
the undirected playground.
There are criminals against girl
hood-those who haunt the streets,
parkways and cheap dance halls fire.
quented by ill-paid shop and store
workers.
WHY do these evils exist and, more
why do they continued
Because those with police authority
-men--do not see and understand. or
do not want to see and understand.
While those who do see and under
stand-women-l police authority.
Now this idea of women on the
police force, like everything else
under the sun, Is far from being
absolutely new. DR. Anna Howard
Shaw. president of the National
Woman Suffrage Association, has
been advocating 1t for more than
twenty years.
And did you know that women
have been actually serving as police
officers for long time with marked
success?
In all the Pacific coast States wom-
en- are acting in this capacity-Los
Angeles, believe, being the first city
to adopt the plan by appointing Mrs.
Alice Stebbn Wells to position on
the force, and her record Ia a splendid
one. Her work, as / understand 1t,
has been chiefly among children and
has been of protective and rescue
character. She is a woman of wealth.

educational attachments, and origi-
