ORDER OF PUBLICATION

The object of this suit is to procure
decree for a divorce a vinculo mat
rimonii by the plaintiff, Rebecca
Moore, from the defendant, Alvin
Moore.
The Bill recites that the parties
here to were married on March 10th,
1927. That the plaintiff has been a
resident of Worcester County, Mary
land, for more than two years last
passed, while the defendant is nom
resident of the County and State and
when last heard of was a resident
Of Lexington, Kentucky. That though
the conduct of your oratrix toward
her husband has always been kind,
affectionate and above reproach, he
without just cause or reason aban-
doned and deserted her, and has de-
clare his intention to live with her no
longer. and that such abandonment has
continued uninterruptedly for more
than three years, and is deliberate and
final, and the separation is beyond
any reasonable hope of a reconcilia-
ton. That there are no children as
issue of said marriage.
It is, thereupon, by the Circuit
Court for Worcester County, Mary
land, ORDERED this 9th day of April
1886, that the plaintiff, Rebecca
Moore, by causing a copy of this order
to be inserted in some weekly news
paper in Worcester County once in
each of four successive weeks before
the 18th day of May, 1886, give notice
to the said absent defendant, Alvin
Moore, of the object and substance of
this Bill, warning him to be and ap-
pear in this Court in person or by
solicitor on or before the 18th day of
May 1886, to show cause, if any he
has, why decree should not be pass
ed as prayed.

Many fires would be averted and
fewer injuries sustained if this pro-

the association said.
A feature of the meeting is a

BUSINESS BOOM
BIGGEST mus,
ROPER SAYS

Prediction that America "is en-
tering one of the greatest business
eraS in its history" was made yes
terday by Secretary of Commerce
Roper.
Roper declared the country is
on the way to creation of new
industries, and cited general build
ing and construction as revival
of an old industry in new forms.
and air-conditioning as new field
virtually untapped.
Warns of Boom
He even warned of a boom" in
some branches of industry which
might reach unhealthy proper
tons. He did not state where
such conditions could be expected.
Roper'S forecasts were made to
newspapermen along with the first
tabulations of the retail business
census for last year, which dis
closed retail sales increases for
1885 over 1888 ranged from IS per
cent in Maine to 68 per cent in
Montana.
At the same time he announced
plans for the fall meeting today
Of the departments business ad-
visory and planning council, COM
-1Sed of the nations biggest in
dustrial leaders.
The Cabinet member said he
will propose creation of new
division in the department COM
parable to the Bureau of Agricul-
tural Economics under the De-
partment of Agriculture to serve
as a clearing house" for business.
Upward Swing Ahead
He explained:
1--WE want to find out how the
Government can further coop
crate with business, to safeguard
gains already made"
Roper referred to indications Of
improved business which he said
are apparent at every hand. Peo-
pie are convinced the country is
entering a longtime upward
swing, he said, and added:
"The major building pro
gram, which is bringing revival
of heavy industries, ought to
run five to 10 years if wisely
pursued.
Among the new industries,
air-cOnditiOning for instance,
there is a wide field opening
through its utilization in homes,
offices, factories and trains"
