Miss Steel Is of the brunette type,

Mains If Returns Warrant
Especial to the Evening stnr.I

TRENTON, March 21.--The Board
Of Public Utility Commissioners in a
report today signifies its intention to
order the Public Service Gas Com
pany to extend its mains along Canal

vided the company can be assured

be necessary, in connection with the
revenue from consumers along the
desired extension, should accrue to
the company The investment should
also afford the gas company a return

ment and to cover the other costs as
calculated necessary for the extern
sion
In the absence Of such guarantees
to the company, conditions as dis

Courtships.

PRINCETON, March 21.--Economic
conditions in cities are destroying
family life, according to Professor E.
A. Ross, of the University Of Wiscon-
sin, who delivered a lecture here yes
terday.
Children in the city are more Of an
| economic burden than a help" he
said. Men are liable TO dism ssal at
q days notice and won't assume the
| burden of marriages. lndustrlalism
also tends to break up the family be-
| cause 1t leads women to work for
their own money. The average age
| of marriage used to be eighteen; now
! it is twenty-four and half, with a
resultant diminution in the size of
families. Women are constantly ris-
! ing higher in their profession and are
| having larger rewards held out to
| them"
divorce" said Professor Ross. lis
as much a social as d moral problem.
Man is coming to realize that he is
merely supporting a woman, That the
wife is not contributing economically
as the grandmothers used to, and the
result is dissatisfaction. Woman, rea-
! lizing that she is making sacrifice,
also has her complaints. Grand
mothers had to be satisfied with their
ma riages, because there was no al
tentative support. The wife today can
make money by her work"
Professor Ross. however. declared
that he was optimistic over the sltua-
\ ton, because the public appreciates
the value of the family and will take
steps by preventing and remedial
legislation to eliminate the dangerous
destruction of the unit.
IF applicants for marriage licenses
were to file declarations of intention
at least four weeks before the license
was granted" he said unhappy
marriages attributed TO hasty court
ships and lack of real intimate ac-
quaintance of the contracting parties
would be eliminated
This declaration would not be
binding If the parties discovered their
mistake before the license had been
granted"

HEBREWS OBJECT
To BIBLE BILL
Young Judea Association Is
Against Reading of New
Testament in Schools.
Especial TO the Evening star


TRENTON, March 21.-Emmanuel
Jaffey. vice president of the Young
Judea Association of this city. yes
terday in a statement denounced the
House bill to require the reading OF
ten chapters of the New Testament
in the public schools of this State.
Mr. Jaffey is a Hebrew and opposes
the introduction of the New Testa-
ment in the schools In his statement
Mr. Jaffey, speaking for his associa-
ton, says:
We earnestly protest against
House Bill No. 500, by Mr.. Peacock,
of Burlington County, in regard to
introducing the compulsory reading
O. the New Testament in the public
schools of this State. AS. Jews, we
are opposed to this movement.
THE Bible is already being read in
almost all of the public schools of the
State and the Jews are satisfied with
the present Bible being read to the
children. The Jews. as people, are
universally opposed to the introduce
ton of the New Testament In the
schools, as we want religious teach
ing confined strictly to non-sectarian
Zines"
The association at it's meeting to-
day adopted resolutions of protest
against the bill and copies Of the
resolutions will be forwarded to every
member of the Legislature asking for
the defeat of the bill.

May. 1915, such progress will have
been made in the construction of air
craft that success will be assured. II
is in fact most probable that by the
time the race is to take place the
Atlantic will have been crossed so
successfully that the competitors will
be given the choice of routes by mid
Atlantic or by way of Greenland.
OF all the international features
proposed for the Panama-PaciticI In
ternational Exposition there are none
which will appeal more forcibly to
the imagination of the world than the
great air race around the globe. 1t
will be the supreme adventure of our
day. 1t is an amazing conception
and one that is well in keeping with
the magnitude of the worlds greatest
exposition. II was but a short time
ago that the world was thrilled by
the news Of the first successful flight
across the English Channel-a short
fifty miles-and now the plans are al
ready under way for the circum-
aviation of the globe. And it will be
done to the glory of the enterprise
and ingenuity of mankind and the
honor of the greatest of all exposi-
lions, which will make possible the
supreme romantic and scientific ad-
venture of our day.

Especial to the Evening start


TRENTON, March 21.-Speculation
is rife here among prominent Episco-
pal ans over the report that Rev Ed
ward S. Travers. of Trinity Church,
Pittsburg, may be selected as the
successor of the late Bishop Scar
borough, of the diocese of New Jer-
The vacancy. however is not likely
to be filled until the diocesan con-
vention meets in st. Mlchaers Church
this city, on May L. The place may
not be filled then and in that event
the election Of Bishop Scarborough's
successor would be deferred unit the
fall meeting. Undoubtedly a contest
for the place will develop between
Jersey clergymen and those outside
of the State. Rev. Hamilton Schuy-
Ter, rector OF Trinity Church, this
city, has been prominently mentioned
for the place, as has Rev. II. Bow
ders Shepperd, archdeacon, of this
