Betty Dennis, IA year old school
girl, daughter of Mrs. Mary Dennis,
of Powellville. was instantly killed
Friday of last week when the charge
from a shot gun, fired at close range

STATE CITIZENS
CONGRATULATED
AS TO ADVICE
Legal Advisory Boards Under
Selective Training Act Of
High Character
JUDGE J. M. CROCKETT
CHAIRMAN IN WORCESTER

Citing the fact that nineteen of the
sitting Judges of the Circuit Courts OF
the State, along with three members
of the Supreme Bench of Baltimore
City, had accepted his invitation to
act as Chairman or Associate mem
bers of the Legal Advisory Boards
under the Selective Training and Ser
vice Act, Governor Herbert R. O'Con-
or declared it to be his opinion that
"the citizens of the State are to be
congratulated on the exceedingly high
type of legal advice that is being
made available freely and without
cost to the many thousands of Mary
landers who have registered for pos
sible duty with our armed forces"
The function of these City and
County League Advisory Board, as
set forth in the Selective Service
Regulations, is to insure that advice
and assistance in preparing question
nairs, claims, etc., are readily avail
able to every registrant. The regula-
tons state that the appointments are
to be made by the Governor, and pro-
vide for as many associate members
as may be necessary, adequately to
care for the demands made upon them
by registrants.
II think it is no exaggeration to
say, declared Governor O'Conor,
chat in the matter of legal advice
to registrants under the Selective
Training and Service Act, the State
of Maryland will be as well prepared
as any other State in the Union"
Governor O'Conor paid a splendid tri-
butte likewise to the members of the
County and City Local Boards, and
others associated with them.
"The outstanding character of these
Legal Advisory Boards is thoroughly
in keeping however with the uniform
ly high standard of public-spirited
citizens who have accepted member
ship on the Local Boards in the City
and Counties, or who have agreed to
contribute their services as Examin-
ing Physicians or Government Appeal
Agents. Expressions of commentator
to this effect have been forthcoming
from Washington, as well as from all
portions of the State.
"It is my firm belief, based on the
expressions Of approval that have
been received that the people Of our
State are satisfied that the admins
tration Of the Selective Training and
Service Act in Maryland is in the

Eight years have passed since that
sad day
When our little one was called away,

We did not see you die,
We only know you passed away,
Without a last goodbye.

CAMPBELL GIVEN
DIVORCE DECREE
Sir Malcolm Had Charged
Wife With Misbehavior
With His Partner

LONDON, April 29- Up Sill
Malcolm Campbell, for year:
speed king on land and water, wal
granted a divorce decree nisi to
day On the ground Of his Wlfe's
adultery with Sir Malcom's form
er business associate, the Hon
Brain Edmund Lewis.
A decree nisi is a conditional de-
cree which may be made absolute
after the expiration Of a certain
period-not less than six months
unless cause to the contrary IS
shown.
A few minutes before the Judg-
ment was given Lady Campoell,
who had answered Sir Malcolm's
suit with a divorce petition OF her
own, charged that he had condon-
ed her adultery with Lewis.
Sir Malcolm, married Lady
Campbell in 1920.
Lewis was ordered to pay the
costs of the suit, not including those
against a cited as a core
spondent by Lady Campbell. The
orna was dismissed from the
case last week when the judge,
Mr., Justice Hobson, ordered the
hearing to proceed despite Lady
CampbelI's assertion that she had
suffered a nervous breakdown.
Justice Hobson said that per-
haps the greatest difficulty in the
case was that Sir Malcolm had to
ask for discretion, since he admit
tedly had committed adultery.
From the witness stand the former
speed king, wearing a bemedalled
army uniform, admitted commit
ting adultery with four different
women.
Sir Malcolm said that, in 1888,
he received information from a
servant and inquiries disclosed that
Lady Campbell and Lewis had stay
cd together in several places.
In her answer, Lady Campbell
alleged that Sir Malcolm had con-
doned her adultery with Lewis
which, she said, began in 1880 or
1881 and ended in 1884.
Campbell testified that he took
Lewis into his house in 1926 be-
cause the latter had quarreled with
his father and he was sorry for
him. The judge branded as an ''un-
worthy suggestion Lewis alleg-
alton that Sir Malcolm was inspir-
ed by mercenary motives because
he IeWis) was the son of a rich
man who might aid Sir Maleom's
business.
1t was stated that, when Sir NAL
colin returned from the United
States in 1890 or 1881, his wife told
him he revolted her.
