A WORD TO THE UNwIsE

1t has been repeatedly published
in all outdoor sporting magazines
strong warnings against the use of
high pressure shotgun shells in any
make of gun having Twist, Laminat-
ed or Damascus steel barrels. De-
spite these warnings, some shooters
think they know more about this
matter than all the shotgun and am
munition manufacturers combined,
and continue using Super X, Super
Speed, Peters High Velocity, REM
ington Express and similar high
pressure shells in guns having these
barrels mentioned.
To say that ut is Extremely Dam
gerous and likely to even prove Fatal
to the shooter, appear to be unheed-
ed by quite few of these know it
all' shooters. Harry says, II take my
old number 10 dHcking and boy, does
she bring them down at a distance!"
Harry disregards the fact that every
time he shoots it he takes chance
of losing an arm or getting his head
blown off, The Winchester Repeating
Arms, Co., Remington Arms Co.,
Savage Arms Corp, Ithaca Gun Co.,
and all other shotgun manufacturers
positively warn shooters NOT to use
these shells in guns with the barrels
mentioned.
All our ammunition manufactur-
ers also warn shooters NOT to use
Super X, Super Speed, High Velocity
and similar smokeless powder shells
in any gun having twist, laminated
or Damascus steel barrels. They also
print warning on each box of sEells
stating that these are Dangerous,
Unsafe and should NOT be used in
guns having the barrels mentioned.
Sportsmen should, therefore, be SEN
sible in this matter and stop using
All High Pressure shells in these
guns, before severe accident or fat
al injury results.

E. KIRK BROWN, SOLICITOR
Naomi p. Williams, Complainant


Charles A. Williams, Defendant
In the Circuit Court of Cecil County
Equity No. 6349
The object of this Bill is to secuer
a decree divorcing the Complainant
from the Defendant.
The Bill states that the Complain
ant and Defendant we're married in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on April
7th, 1924, and lived together until
August 28th, 1898; that the Com
plainant and Defendant have volun-
tarily lived separate and apart. with
out any cohabitation, for more than
five consecutive years prior to the
filing of her Bill of Complaint, and
the said separation is beyond any
reasonable expectation of reconcilia-
tion that two children were born to
said marriage, a daughter Hanna
Seasons, who is married and a son
Donald Williams, who is fourteen
years of age and in the custody and
control of the Complainant; that
the Complainant has resided in Cecil
County for more than one year be-
fore the filing of this Bill, and that
the Defendant lives at 1920 Mervine
Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania,
or elsewhere beyond the jurisdiction
of this Court; the bill then asks for
a decree divorcing the Complainant
from the Defendant vinculo matri-
monii; for the control and custody of
said minor child Donald Williams,
and for such other and further relief
as her case may require.
1T IS THEREUPON, this 10th day
of May, 1915, by the CIRCUIT
COURT FOR CECIL COUNTY, IN
EQUITY, ORDERED that the Com
plaiannt cause copy of this order
with the object and substance of the
Bill to be inserted in some newspaper
published in Cecil County once a
week for four successive weeks be-
fore the 18th day of June, 1916,
giving notice to the Defendant, who
is nonresident of the State of
Maryland, to appear in this Court
either in person or by solicitor on or
before the 27th day of June, 1915,
to answer the premises and to abide
by and perform such decree as may
be passed herein

LOCAL CORN CROP
THREATENED BY EUROPEAN
CORN BORER
Clerk

The European corn borer may
cause Maryland farmers enormous
losses this year if local growers have
not already taken steps to control
the pest. That was the warning is
sued by the Extension Service ento-
mologists at the University of Mary
land.
In 1914, the specialists added, the
European corn borer caused a corn
crop loss of over $22,O00,OOO in the
eastern part of TIE United States, de-
spite light infestation due primarily
to drought conditions. Corn borel
surveys in the fall of 1914 revealed
a potential infestation that can
cause icnreased losses in 1916 ii
weather conditions are favorable to
the pest.
This year about Is percent of the
European corn borers in the state
had pupated by April II, the Exten-
sion specialists pointed out. Suisse
quently, the rate of pupation increas-
ed, and at the present time the moths
are emerging. This presages an early
spring brood, they said, and if the
weather conditions continue favor
able, second and even ,tkird brood
will probably appear in Maryland
Under favorable conditions, each fe-
male corn borer moth will lay an av-
erage of 400 eggs-and, in excep-
tional cases, she may lay as many as
19O0-which hatch in four to nine
days, producing large numbers OF
young borers.
Corn fields which have been plant
ed very early are likely to suffer
heavy damage from the corn borer
Similarly, corn that is planted late
is likely to suffer from the second
and third generations. Mid-season
paintings normally show reduced
damage, but in areas where the Jep-
anese beetle is present, any plants
that silk around the 10th to the 30th
of July are likely to suffer heavy
damage.
| Normally, the Extension entomolo-
.gists said, in order to get rid of the
carry-over of corn borers, local farm
ers should have plowed down corn
stalks by April to reduce the num-
Der of emerging corn borer moths;
but in seasons such as this one
March Is would have been none toe
early deadline.
Insecticidal treatments are moi
economical for application to can
ming corn in Maryland. Applications
| of rotenone at four or five day inter
walls as soon as the corn is in tassel
| may give worthwhile reduction OF
the borers in home planting, but il
is not recommended in commercial
paintings because of the cost. This
will take at least five applications to
give satisfactory results.

The demonstrated sales effective
ness of school children was an i'm
portant factor in the determination
of the dates set for this new Drive
May 18th through June 30th. Insist
ence on the part of many War Fl
nance Chairmen throughout the
country paid tribute to the vital sup
port that pupils, teachers and school
administrators have given previous
Bond Drives.
A recent survey reveals that more
than 20 million people heard about
the Sixth War Loan from school
children. Over eleven million were
directly asked to buy bonds by these
boys and girls, little less than a
third of whom were solicited In no
other way.
The participation of school chill
dren ranges from rallies at their
schools to the taking over of actual
house-to-house canvaSSing. In Penns
Grove, a small New Jersey town,
during the last Drive, E Bond sales
were tagging badly. In desperation,
the War Finance Committee turned
to the students of the towns two
high schools and one grammar
school. eff the adults won't do it, it's
up to you," the County Chairman
told them. Accepting the challenge,
within a week boys and girls had
sold SOS, 900 worth of bonds, and be-
fore the close of the Drive, Penns
Groves 6,485 citizens had topped
their E Bond quota by ST., 900. Lets
chuck that worriment about youth
taking responsibility into the ash
cam" said the local weekly news
paper.
In Michigan, public schools sold
$23, 1905 worth of bonds in the
Sixth War Loan, with Detroit schools
contributing almost a third of this

that just over the horizon lay the
mainland of Japan.
Within each officer and man there
was a mounting tension that made
itself known in little things. A few
Bibles appeared, some new, some
dog-eared and worn; there was
louder laughter than usual, more
jealous attempts at horseplay. A
quiet checking of battle gear, or the
studied writing of letters gave evil
dence of serious thought. Men asked
each other what difference there was
between a Jap plane and the hun
dreds of targets they had so efficient
ly knocked from the skies.
Today, shortly after dawn, when
the first Jap Betty stole through a
curtain of ack-ack and let loose its
bombs, the men knew there was a
difference.
The next plane did not e
through; it dissolved in the focal fire
of a barrage from the ships of the
task force. A third one, intent on
sowing destruction on the deck of a
carrier, broke through, but it was
riddled with dack and diverted.
Others came in to meet the fierce
anti-aircraft fire of this cruiser and
other skips of the force, but they
were repealed. The carriers moved on
toward their goal.
This evening the Captain of this
newly cruiser spoke from
his station on the bridge to the men
at their battle stations. The planes
of returning U. S. airmen speckled
the sky as they maneuvered for land.
