No. 2542 Equity. In the Circuit Court

The object of this suit is to pro-
cure a decree of the Circuit Court
for Garrett County, Maryland, for the
sale Of certain real estate in said Gar
rett County of which Mary Elizabeth
Steiding died, seized and possessed.
The Bill states:
l. That Mary Elizabeth Steiding,
late of Garrett County, Maryland, de-
ceased, was in her lifetime and at
the time of her death seized and pos
sessed Of q certain lot, piece or parcel
Of land situate, lying and being in
Garrett County, Maryland, known

ical superiority of the foreign shows.
With the exception of two or three
manufacturers in both France and
England, all producers of motor cars
are assemblers who purchase their
bodies and parts from makers of
such things, and consequently, there
are host of such makers competing
for this business. The ownership and
operation of foundries, forge shops,
stamping plants and body factories
by car producers is quite limited.
Numerous manufacturers sell more
chassis than they do complete cars,
and retail buyers of chassis purchase
their bodies from the body makers
direct. Then again, the Paris and
London shows contain many cars of
foreign make, whereas our New York
and Chicago shows house only cars
produced in the United States.
At the Grand Palais, commodi-
Gus, beautiful building, 122 different
makes of motor cars were on exhibit
ton, including 81 French, 10 Italian,
II American, 8 Belgian and British
makes.
Olympia had 1874, including rs Eng

Adelaide Beckman is now temporarily
residing in the State of Michigan and
praying for the issuance of the Or

ant an order was obtained from the
Court granting and directing the said
order of publication.
1t is thereupon this 5th day of
November, 1924, ordered by the Cir

land, in Equity, that the plaintiffs,

in Garrett County once in each of

Ronweg must be suffering from
