It was the first time in 25 years that Canadians had sat down to a meal of U,S. meat on this side of the border.

Eggs Hatching in Fish Hatcheries Visitors to the Fish Hatcheries at this time of year will see the eggs in the process of hatching, or already hatched, depending upon temperature or type of water with which the hatchery is supplied. In the hatcheries of the spring fed rearing stations most of the eggs will be hatched owing to the comparative- ly warm winter water With which these stations are supplied, In this water eggs develop fairly fast and the hatch is early. In the eommercial hatcheries, which are usually sup- plied with water fro en lakes or rivers, the hatch is usually slower at this time of year owing to the colder Water from these sources, Therefore, the eggs May not hatch until the water Starts to warn' in the Spring, This great Variation iii the hatch- ing time of fish eggs seems to be little understood by many of us who United Church Church (Continued from Page One,) Mr. Lloyd Hutton, superintendent of the Sunday School, said that there had been an increased attendance both in the regular classes and in the Adult Bible Class, The receipts were $1046.45, of which $300.00 was given to missions.

In practically all of these creatures i heubation takes place within, or hi close contact with, the body of the animal, and nature pro- vides that throughout their life cycle temperatures Must remain fairly constant. With this constant tem- perature there is little variation in the incubation period and eggs hatch in a certain number of days. On the other hand the cold blooded animals Such as fish and reptiles have body temperatures closely ap- proximating that of their surround- ings.
