For use in the maintenace of the '.unicipal conduit system of Baltimore, the electrical commission of that city is employing a new service motor truck which in addition to its other equipment is provided with a wireless telegraph apparatus, says the March Popular Mechanics Magazine n an ilustrated article. Unlike most ether portable radio outfits in gen■ral use, this is so arranged that mes■ages may be received while the car s being driven at high speed through ■treets filanked by tall buildings of Peel construction. At the same time he appearance of the machine is not uch as to attract attention. In the poultry department of the urrent issue of Farm and Fireside B. F. W. Thorpe writes an interesting article in which he tells how hatching ?ggs are poor travelers and have to be most carefully packed if they are to be shipped. Os the dangers of shipping hatching eggs, Mr. Thorpe says n part: “The hatching egg is a nooriously poor traveler. The ups and ’owns, jolts and jars, of a journey makes life a burden to the all-impor-tant germ cells of hatching eggs. With half a chance, ‘germ spots’ are good swimmers and will keep righf side ip in their nature-provided home —the '-•oik of the egg. “But when hatching •ggs get into the hands of those near •elations of the baggage smasher—he express thrower and parcel-post litcher —the poor ‘germ spots’ have i sorry time of it.” o MAKE LITTLE PROGRESS.

The remainder of the program was: Response, in Behalf of Business Women —Miss Cravens of the High School Faculty. Reading—Miss Ruth Hammell. Piano —Miss Rose Smith. Talk—Mrs. H. C. Clase. Vocal Solo —Mrs. J. C). Sellemeyer. Talk —Mrs. J. W. McCombe. Each number was fine. Mrs. McCombe, the closing speaker, talked >t greater length. Two things make for a successful business career for women—enthusiasm and earnestness, she said. A good motto which she found helpful to herself, is “Clockwatchers are Never ,-Top-notchers.” That the business women of the city may be brought in doser touch with ■ach other and enjoy the inspiration that they are denied in attending the morning and afternoon services of the revival, a series of luncheons for Thursday noons from eleven to one o’clock have been arranged. The fir st will be given next Thursday. The Knights of Pythias have kindly given the free use of their hall for these luncheons. The ladies of all the churches will serve excellent luncheons at the nominal cost of fifteen cents during these hours. This price covers only the cost of the food. The luncheons are not for the purpose of making mcney but for providing the means of a social gathering. Here the business women will have the privilege of meeting with each other, and with the workers in the woman's department of the party, if only for a short while. Mrs. McCombe invited the guests to join in the march to the tabernacle, though it was made plain that if any had other meetings to attend, or other dutids to care for, they were perfectly at liberty to go. A number of yells were practiced to be given on arrival at the tabernacle. The band met the procession at the church, and different bodies of workers, teachers, office girls, maids, waitresses, etc., formed into divisions'for this, each being given banners. A word of appreciation of the excellent supper served should be expressed, and of the excellent way In which it was served with dispatch. The supper was delicious.
