The ships now sail from the company's gigantic pier at the foot of 20th just off 3d Ave. First I spotted that gallant veteran traffic officer, John Byrne, who also has moved from his old pier post on Atlantic Ave.

Mr. Byrne, a policeman for 30 years, has been a traffic man for 28 years and is known to thousands of truck drivers who truck freight to the docks. There has been no change in the top supervisors of the pier. George L. Liesegang, the superintendent, 60 years in shipping, is still in charge.

Pa'st the middle 70s, Mr. Leisegang has been with the Bull Lines for 56 years. He is a slight, white-haired man: quite a dandy in dress, quick in speech and brisk in manner. Three of his sons are associated enu Drive for WAC, WAF Enlistments Under Way Directors and top personnel of the women's military services converged on New York yesterday afternoon for the purpose of stimulating public interest in enlistments.

jrNv l3 of By ELBA 8TEINBERGER Food Editor Amber neon lights make lt possible for the first time, to candle eggs In the presence of light in the recently completed dairy department of the H. C. Bohack Inc. This new de partment occupies 45,000 square feet of space in the Bohack Terminal at Bohack Square, Brook and was inspected yesterday by food editors and com mentators of the press, raaio and television. Months of research and plan-.

ning preceded the construction of this department equipped to service 265 Bohack markets with fresh dairy products, and replacing the former dairy di vision which had been out grown, due to increased dairy product sales. Not only is the candling proc ess done in lighted, air-conditioned space, but the entire department is laid out to provide the maximum in pleasant working conditions and the most efficient operation for the handling of butter, eggs, cheese and other items handled by the dairy division, from the time supplies are delivered by truck, processed and stored for distribution to the various stores. Egg and Eye Eggs are candled by skilled personnel who examine each egg by holding' it between the eye and a bright light (the rea son for the room's general sub dued lighting). Size and plac ing of yolk, size and shape of the air pocket, blood spots, or cracks may be detected instant ly and affect the grading of the eggs. More than 5,000,000 indi vidual eggs were candled by these experts last year.

Detect ing possible defects in the eggs is one of the most important functions of the dairy department. The new egg candling equiprrient is the first of its kind, a product of the Self-Locking Carton Co. Conveyor belts in this and other sections eliminate many manual operations. Girls are em ployed for the sedentary job of sorting the eggs, while men cart more easily handle the 60 pound blocks of butter in that section of the department where this is processed. No longer is the butter tub in evi dence.

The blocks are delivered in corrugated cartons and are placed in the butter storage at 45 degrees to ready it for cut ting and packing. One machine has the capacity of cutting blocks and wrapping in pound units at the rate of 65 pounds per minute. Another machine cuts and wraps quarter pound prints and packages four to the pound at the rate of 75 pounds every two minutes. There is an almost complete turnover of supplies in 24 hours in these two departments. Rapid turnover is the case in re gard to the large selection of cheese, as well.

Lard, bacon and margarine are delivered by truck and by freight to a spur track along side the building. In, the temperature controlled selection "rooms, orders are made up for the individual stores, and all dairy products Continued on Following Page Brooklyn Juniors Season With Party der Puff Army," commented Col. Hallaren, pointing out that service women are engaged in highly skilled branches of the services.

A barber had just applied a full layer of lather preparatory to shaving him. That gives you an idea' of how busy this 76-year-old man is. "On the jump all the time," they say about him down at the pier.

Biggest, Bestest The Bull Line piers are said to be the biggest in the country. It is worth a trip to see them. They are 750 feet long and cover more than 22 acres. The roadway leading to the piers is 76 feet wide and some 600 trucks line up there throughout the day. Lunch accommodations are poor in the vicinity, so mobile lunch wagons serve the new piers.

On 20th a makeshift lunch counter is operated from an old Navy bus that has been painted silver. There are innumerable signs on the bus. Across the rear some comedian wrote "To the Races," on the left, and "To Peter," on the right.

This week the petals may fall quickly due to the brisk breeze, so perhaps a warning to make haste will spare you regrets later. Camera fans with color films were almost as numerous as the petals littering Cherry Walk. Some acute fans snapped pictures of two women dressed in flowing silk, a la Madame Pandit against the background of cherry trees. The Oriental Garden (known as the Japanese Garden prior to World War II) is open again. It is the most beautiful section of the Botanic Garden; pagodas, terraced waterfalls over rocks and the lake stocked with gold and green fish.

I feel that the correspondence should cease, but I hesitate to speak of it.

I want love more than anything in this world. V. A. What's the Story? EAR V. A.

There seems to be an untold tragedy here. What is the story you are withholding? I gather your husband is a non-aggressive man who, was roped or lured into marriage without his heart being in it. And your references to your personality, in middle age, indicate that you are a canny, self-confident, go-getter type when you are functioning par. In any case, I get the impression that you haven't loved him so-much as you've wanted possess him. And I very much doubt that you honestly intended to separate.

Attitude Insensllive Insidiously and indirectly you were fighting feeling for the other woman, you weren't manifesting true independence nor moving to him free, when you took action. The fact that George soon prostrated himself, to talk incessantly about his mistake and his love for you, doesn't' solve anything, however. You are just where you were before. You say you want your husband's love more than anything in life. Self-centered maneuvers demands will never achieve your heart's desire, lt is axiomatic that love begets love, and that it is more blessed to give love than receive it.

You have your husband's company an enduring basis, apparently, so employ arrangement to become greatly aware of him uncritically, in hope of understanding just ignore the correspondence. It won't matter in the grand perspective, if you are more concerned to love than to possess him. M. H. By RUTH G.

DAVIS Society Editor Finishing up the season with a gay party were the members of the board of directors and the Junior Committee of the South Brooklyn Neighborhood Houses. They gave a Spring ball at the Towers Hotel on Friday evening, Besides dancing to the music of Francis Walther's orchestra, there was some pleasant entertainment Allan Gilbert of "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" sang four songs from the show. Mr. Gilbert is a rising Broadway star who played in the original production of "Something for the Boys," "Bloomer Girl," and "Billion Dollar Baby." Four of the members of the Low Memorial House, the settlement which benefits by the proceeds of the dance, entertained. David Corpag and Ray Sharkey were In a skit.

The table decorations consisted -of candles surrounded by Spring flowers. There were gaily colored butterflies perched 'on the table numbers and two groups of large butterflies over the orchestra. The principal colors were Kelly green, royal blue and magenta. The women guests all looked pretty in their, dance frocks. Noted among committee members were Mrs; Reid A.

Our only child is away from home, so therefore it seemed to me that we should separate and leave him to his own interests. Jealousy Weigh I went away for a week and my absence seemed to bring George to his senses, and for two weeks he talked continually of his mistake and about his love for me. He said he could never live without me, which I dq believe is true. I do really believe he has always loved me but did not know it. My problem is what should I do, and how should I act around him?
