ORDER OF PUBLICATION

The object of this suit is to procure
a decree for a divorce vinculo mat
rimonii by the plaintiff, Elizabeth M.
Gunby, from the defendant, Martin
Powell Gunby.
The Bill recites that the parties
were married on or about the 30th
day of November, 1927, in Worcester
County, Maryland, removing thereaf-
ter to Aberdeen, Maryland, but later
returning to Worcester County, Mary
land, in 1928.
That though the conduct of the
plaintiff towards the defendant has
always been kind, affectionate and a.
bove reproach, the said defendant did,
without any just cause or reason de-
sert the plaintiff during the summer
of 1885, and has declared his unwill--
ingness to live longer with her and
that such abandonment has continued
uninterruptedly for more than three
years and is deliberate and final and
the separation of the parties beyond
any reasonable expectation of recon
ciliation. That one child, Martin
Powell Gunby, Jr., aged nine, was
born as a result of said marriage.
That the plaintiff has been resident
of Worcester County for more than
two years prior to the time of the
filing of said suit and the defendant,
Martin Powell Gunby, when last heard
from, was residing in Martinsburg,
West Virginia.
It is, thereupon, by the Circuit Court
for Worcester County, Maryland, In
Equity, ordered, this End day of Sep
tember, 1888, that the plaintiff, Eliza
beth M. Gunby, by causing copy OF
this order to be inserted in some
newspaper published in Worcestef
County, Maryland, once in each of
four successive weeks before the 10th
day of October, 1888, giving notice to
the said absent defendant, Martin
Powell Gunby, of the object and sub
stance of this Bill, warning him to
appear in this Court either in person
or by solicitor on or before the 26th
day of October, 1888, to show cause, if
any he has, why decree ought not
to be passed as prayed.

THE CHALLENGE

Addressing the recent New Yorl
Herald Tribune Forum, at which !
number of distinguished Americans
including the President, spoke on
topics Of general interest, Wend1 II
L. Willkie, President of the Com
monwealth and Southern Corpora
tion, made searching discussion Of
totalitarian government.
I'VE are facing in this country a
challenge which all nations are fac
ing" said Mr.. Willkie. ut is the is
sue between security and freedom.
Today nearly half the world lives
under some form of dictatorship.
Several hundred million people are
enslaved by their govern
ments. These governments place no
Importance upon the individual and
his work; they place supreme i'm
portance upon the state and the ef-
ficiency of its organization. These
people have given UP their liberty
for a false security. They have ex-
changed their freedom for bread
which they may not receive.
I'VE need to remember that COM
Dletely planned economy. a guaran-
eed security, can evist only under
IN authoritarian and discretionary
government. II is in the name Of /

SELECT BREEDING STOCK
PEFORE SELLING TURhEYS
FOR CHRISTMAS TRADE

Before marketing any of the spring
turkey flock for Christmas JSt
commercial breeders and owners OF
farm AOcks lind that it pays 10 select
breeking stock for the next year, says
III. l.. Richardson, extension poultry
man of the Delaware College of Agri-
culture.
Most pcultrymen find it cheaper to
select new breeding stock each fall.
The following spring. after the egg
laying season, the breeding birds are
sold to avoid carrying them TO the
next breeding season.
Richardson says that turkey raisers
can choose their breeders by follow
ing a selection cnart prepared by
Starley J. Marsden. turkey specialist
of the U. S. Department of Agricur-
ture. He gives the following point
ers for selecting only choice young
hens for laying stock.
Choose birds with broad. we'll
fIeshed breasts, and well-leshed
legs. There should be good breadth
of back and body. The breast bone
should be parallel. or nearly so, to
the back The neck and legs should
be reasonably short. There should
be good length of keel, and good dep
tn of the body. Health and vigor, of
course are important.
The flock owner may choose the
weight of bird that he likes best, as
some strains of turkeys are heavy
and some light. Early maturity, re-
gardless of weight, is another import
ant point. Where birds are"all the
same age. and if the selection is made
between the ages of "a and 28 weeks,
1t is not difficult to choose the quick
maturing birds.
Breed characteristics should be OBJ
served and only birds of standard
quality chosen. The laying flock
should be uniform in color and free
from pendulous crops, deformed legs.
Gross beaks, crooked backs, split
wings and other deformities.
These suggestions, Richardson
points out. are for turkey producers
who expect to raise birds only for
marketing. Those raising show birds !
and pedigreed stock follow more RI |
gid method of selection.

tions. in the interest OF so-called
planned economy.
Here, then, is the greatest issue OF
the times. It is, as Mr. Willkie says,
a chailenge--to our courage. to our
intelligence, to our foresight. It Is
not matter OF partisan politics. We
in America, in company with other
troubled nations, must eventually
choose between free system which
has given us more, by far. than any
other nation-and the authoritarian
doctrine which is spreading like a
black cloud over the world.

through discretion that il exercises

Mr.. Willkie knows well what ati-
thoritarian government means-the
electric utilities have had a bitter
taste of It. And, to lesser extent.
so has all business in this country.
1t would be ridiculous to argue that
we have thrown democracy over
