men having been completed.
No arrangements have been made as
yet for any farewell celebration for the
men. The first several contingents
of selectives were accorded a banquet
and general good time on the eve of
their departure as well as theatrical
their honor. Owing to the AhnEt mo-
tice they will reeeaNe Il y Apubtful

TT men who left for Camp Dix had
no celebration but the Board of AL
dermen made last minute arrange
ments whereby there was a band at
the station as the train pulled out,
playing patriotic and martial airs.
Some such arrangement may be made
for the next lot.

Change Date and Place fol
Convenience of Applicants
and Protestants.

The Board of Public Utility Com
missioners who were to have given the
application of the Perth Amboy Gas
Light Company hearing at Trenton
next Tuesday, have postponed that
hearing until April 3, on which date
the board will sit in its rooms at 790
Broad street, Newark, at 1880 o'clock
to hear the application and protestants.
A. N. Barber, secretary of the commits
sion, has notified Mayor John +. Ten
Brock of the change in place, saying
that the board has considered 1t a
more convenient place for parties in
terested to reach than Trenton.
The mayor Immediately set about
notifying those persons who are intend
ing going to the hearing, and voicing
their protest against the additional
charge of ten cents per thousand cub
ic feet of gas, as applied for by the
company. With the change In place
of the hearing, Newark being so much
more accessible than Trenton, the
mayor believes that the city Will have
a considerable representation present.
The mayor, the Board Of Aldermen
and other bodies will be represented
at the hearing. The executive expects
to lead many of the men himself. and
this city's resolution, as passed by the
aldermen, will be presented to the
commission. 1t is likely that many
associations and individuals will be
present also.
Same Date For p. S. Hearing.
The change in place will mean that
the Public Service fare raise appli-
cation, which Is to be heard on March
rs, will not be heard on the same date
and at the same place as the gas hear
ing was at first planned. This will
give the city officials and others who
are Joining the dual fight, added op-
portunity to prepare their protests
against the two applications.
City Attorney Leo Goldberger Is
continuing his preparation for the
city's opposition to the two applica-
tions for increased rates for trolley
fare and gas The entire state is pre-
pared to fight the trolley application
and DR.. Delos F. Wilcox, of the Mass
achusetts Institute of Technology. will
probably act as the chief expert OF
the opposing municipalities. An
lnouncement to that effect was made
yesterday at Newark by Marshal Van
Wrinkle, chief counsel for the opposi-
ton, following a conference with DR.

NEW YORK, March 23-The Brit

not an alarming symptom.
St. Quentin marks the southern end
Of the Hindenburg line and Is one OF
the natural strategic points where the
Germans might concentrate their at

Elsewhere, the British lines are hold

The Germans have not succeeded ir
pinching off the Cambari salient, a.
yet, which Is the principle purpose o.
their attack.
The small gains at st. Quentin are
OF secondary importance to the opera
ttons west Of Cambari. It may be that
the st. Quentin concentration was or
dered by Hind denburg so that triffilins
victory might be shown to the German
people in place of the expected Cam
brai success.
The Versailles war council has now
under its command reserve force
composed of French, British. and
probably American troops, for use ir
an emergency at any part of the west
front. There is as yet no indication
that these special reserevs are needed
by the British. But II sudden danger

OF the glands supplying the shell ma
terial or 60 the exclusion of the egg
before il had time for the secretion
and deposit OF the shell.
Just how much time is required for
the development Of an. egg is. not deh-
niteiy known. The formation OF the
yolk is the longest period. and prob
ably requires three weeks before ii is
ready TO leave the follic!c. The fact
that a series OF ova are ripenine a,

interval between the finished csss.

1t is not known whether a hen of
her own Will can stop the development
OF the yolks prior to their entrance to

. that she can: but it is certain that
she can control the egg after that
