L. Paul EwelI, Solicitor

Annie Fisher VS. Norman Fisher.
In the Circuit Court for Worcester
County, Maryland.
No. 1926 Chancery.
The object of this suit is to procure
a divorce a vinculo matrimonii by the
plaintiff from the defendant. The
bill states: That the parties were mar
ried in Worcester County, Maryland,
September Fl, 1927; that they lived
together as husband and wife until
the year 1880 when the defendant,
without any just cause or reason,
abandoned and deserted the plaintiff
and that the abandonment and deser-
ton has continued uninterruptedly
for more than three years, and is de-
liberate and final and the separation
beyond any reasonable expectation of
reconciliation; that no children were
born to the parties; that the plaintiff
is resident of Worcester County,
Maryland, and has always been a resi-
dent of said County and State; that
the defendant is nonresident of the
State of Maryland, and the defendant
resides, so the plaintiff is advised, in
the State of Delaware.
It is thereupon, ordered by the Cir
cult Court in Worcester County, Mary
land, in Equity, this 10Th day of Au-
gust, 1871, that the plaintiff, Annie
Fisher, by causing copy of this or
der to be inserted in some newspaper
printed and published in Worcester
County, Maryland, once week for
four successive weeks before the 22nd
day of September, 1871, give notice
to the absent defendant, Norman
Fisher, of the object and substance
of said bill of complaint and warning
him to be and appear in this court in
person or by solicitor, on or before
the 9Th day of October, 1871, to show
cause, if any he has, why decree
ought not to be passed as prayed.

Let Us Rejoice

W7HEN we see the joy of chill
w dren spontaneously and con-
tinuously manifested, and
their assurance of the love of their
parents, ii might well inspire in us a
greater confidence in the Father,
God, who ever bleSseS all. That men
stand in need of fuller, more per-
manent JOY is plain. Those who con-
slider the subject of little importance
would do well not only TO remember
how essential Joy is to true living,
but to recall how highly the Apostle
Paul valued it when in his list of
spiritual fruits. he placed it next to
love. ;.
The fundamental nature of Joy can
best be understood when it is dis
cerned how all good is possible Of
attainment through the spiritual I'M
derstanding of mans true being as
the son of God. If God is All and
man is created in His image and like
ness - as is so clearly stated in the
first chapter of Genesis - the posi-
bilitics Of good in such a relation
ship must indeed be limitleSS. Here,
then, is the scientific call to JOY
far beyond what materially could
provide.
Many Bible characters have expo
ricnced great JOY as the result Of
their understanding Of God; but no
one has so fully demonstrated JOY to
be the inevitable result of the under
standing of mans unity with God as
has Christ Jesus. the Way shower.
When he told his hearers UOhn TO-:
800, 81 and my Father are ore" he
proved what he said by casting out
every form of error. He also made it
clear that those who understood his
teaching would do even greater
works than he was doing. True joy,
then, is a spiritual quality arising
from the fundamental fact Of mans
oneness with his Father, God, and it
can never spring from the illusory
pleasures of matter, mood, or cap
rice.
When The prophet Isaiah spoke of
the manifestation Of the Christ-idea,
ne sought TO make il clear that JOY
was one Of its notable characteris-
tics. He wrote Isaiah 81 Il, -, 'The
Spirit of the Lord God is upon me;

CATION HOLDS MEETING
CONTINUED from Page -


Walters, Esq, Secretary to the Asso-
citation has already heard from the
Roads body, with information that
surveys have been ordered on this
layout.
Should this plan be adopted, there
is a possibility of another bridge a.
cross the Pocomoke. Plans, however,
for the construction of Shore Boule-
ward have not advanced far enough
to make definite report as to what
direction the Maryland road will run
after making it's contact with the Vir-
ginia present terminus.
These resolutions all show de-
cided interest in working out better
highway traffic conditions, and the
Association should be highly COM
mended for their public spirit.
Mr.. M. Bogash, of the Princess
Anne Dress Mandatory, was guest
of the Association. He has moved in
to the second story of the old fire en-
CINE house where he will give labor to
from 80 to so workers. He stated,
that, later, he purposes to secure a
site for building large enough to
take care of an expansion of three
or four times his present output.
Mr.. Bogash can be assured of well
come to Pocomoke, and he will find
it's citizens ready to cooperate as far
as it lies in their power to do so.

-. to appoint unto them that
mourn in Zion, to give unto them
beauty for ashes, the oil of Joy for
mourning, the garment of praise for
the spirit of heaviness; that they
might be called trees of righteous
ness, the planting of the Lord, that
he might be glorified;" while in "Sci-
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" Mary Baker Eddy has
written cOrrelative passage which
reads Up. 300: Harmony is pro-
duced by its Principle, is controlled
by it and abides with it. Divine Prin-
ciple is the Life of man. Mans hap
piness is not, therefore, at the dis
posal of physical sense. Truth is not
contaminated by error. Harmony in
man is as beautiful as in music, and
discord is unnatural, unreal"
Ones understanding of the allness
of God as the source of true, that is,
of spiritual joy, is strengthened by
statement of the Way-shower'S,
which brings steadfaStness and
peace. He comforted his followers
with the assurance John 1929,
"Your Joy no man taketh from you"
To lack Joy is to be deprived of the
logical outcome of spiritual under
standing. Consistently to recognize
the things for which we can be
grateful is TO cultivate Joy and to en-
nance its loneliness. Let us then
cheer our own experience, as well as
the world about us, by the express
sion of more gratitude.
In the universe of Gods creating,
where the spiritual man forever
dwells, there is no hectic rushing
hitler and thither to seek JOY. Joy is
a spiritual attribute which all may
express here and now in the simple
kindnesses of the daily routine. Thus
we see how true it is that while good
brings Joy, Joy also brings more
good!
'Rejoice evermore. In every
thing give thanks" q Thessalonians
5:16, 18). Not only with our lips, but
in our lives should JOY and gratitude
be expressed, and this will result in
untold blessings"
