Gillett Describes Convention Benefits
Former Local C. of C. Secretary Tells of Advantages Facing Hartford for Securing National Grange Meet

Alvin E. Gillett, former secretary 0f the local Chamber of Commerce and current secretary of the Mad ison Association of Commerce in Madison, Wis, points out the many benefits the city of Madison at tained from the 1881 meeting Of the National Grange, which this year meets in Hartford, November 11 to 23, and which is expected to bring at least $150.000 into the Capital City.
 Mir Gillett writes as follows:
 Madison had the honor of en- tertaining this group in 1881 and want to say that, out of an average of over 200 conventions that we en- certain each year, we have never had a finer group of people In our community-in fact I felt good deal of the time as though they were the hosts and we were the guests-they were so fine to deal with and so appreciative of every thing done for them. l wish 1t might be my good fortune to be in Connecticut in time to attend this convention and meet some of my good friends of the Nations Grange again.
 You will be afforded a wcauer- full opportunity to give publicity about Hartford through the month ly magazine of the National Grange. One other distinct advan- tage which the convention brought to Madison was the fact that the National Broadcasting Company broadcast an hours message by the master of the National Grange from Madison. If we had had to buy this time it would have cost us some $25,000."

PRIEST DEPLORES
 DIVORCE HERESY
Father O'Brien in Lenten Sermon Gives ChurCh'S
 Views on Marriage

In 8 forceful sermon relating to the divorce heresy, Rev Francis A. O'Brien, missionary oblate of Mary Immaculate, presented the fifth in a series of sermons on marriage at St. Margaret's church last night. His subject was Dying Embers" and he developed his subject on the text using the words of Christ, whom God has joined together let no man put asunder."
 In the course of his talk Father O'Brien stated that marriage was meant to be a permanent institu ton, and that those who violated this were breaking the law of God as well as the natural law. The Catholic church, he stated, has never and never will sanction divorce for any reaCon whatsoever; separation for certain reasons, but never divorce.
 He deplored the increase of the heresy, especially in this country where 1t is growing in leaps and bounds and undermining the moral structure of the nation, first un- dermining the home, then the na- made too easy in this country, and that in one state there were fifty two different reasons from which to select in seeking divorce.
 Next Tuesday, Father O'Brien will give his sixth sermon in the series dealing with marriage, his subject to be "The Source of Strength"

Gold Fish Production.
A short distance before reaching
Middletown itself, you'll see on the
left a series of square ponds behind
a typical farm house. A sign stands
by the. roadside proclaiming Gold
Fish for Sale" Inquiry reveals that
this is but a small fish farm; that
Frederick County really produces
more gold fish than any other single
section of the United States.
It's worth a brief stop and the
farmer there will patiently show you
how it's done. His ponds are fed by
single spring that pours a clear
stream of water down the grade
through the 10 ponds he operates.
Each pond is capable of producing in
the neighborhood of 100000 fish, and
when ordered, they are shipped in
large tin cans. This farmer admits
that he sells more fish to roadside
buyers than he ships to the markets.
Well. the tour goes on, and after
the fish farm. Middletown is scarcely
a mile farther. This little town i'm
presses the tourist with its spotless
cleanliness; its tiny houses; its beau

he'll find many homes-attractive

Almost from the first half mile

South Mountain begins. Here the

of 1,100 feet around broad-swinging
curves that make the elevation quite
easy. In negotiating this stretch of
road, don't travel so fast that you fail
to look behind occasionally and watch
Middletown Valley drop below and the
Catoctin Mountain rise. On one of
