TO VICKSBURG

Capt. A. Belcher, of the Salvation
Army, has just returned from Vicks-
burg, where he went to convey sick
Mexican to the State hospital.
1t will be recalled that some three
weeks ago a Mexican in a pitiable
condition was discovered in this city
by Captain Belcher, who Immediately
took steps to provide for the man $
comfort by supplying a bed, food and
medicine. For time the sick mans
condition improved, but imprudence,
1t is thought, brought on another and
more severe attack of the malady. SO
1t was thought best to send him to the
hospital at Vicksburg.
The mans transportation expenses,
as well as hospital bill, will be as
sumed and paid by the Salvation
Army. through the local officer in
charge.

Local Salvation Army workers are
now busily engaged in soliciting con.

use in supplying Xmas dinners and ne

tiesburg, and so far have met with to-
erably favorable responses from the
good people of this city.

organization has been working in Hat

cause to remember their kindly and
timely illustrations, and the good
they have accomplished in this man.

This year Captain Belcher hopes to
be able to assist every needy family
and individual in the city. and already
he has secured lengthy list of names
of those who will need assistance I'M
less relief is supplied from some other
source.
Taking it all in all, however, there
are probably fewer destitute people in
Hattiesburg than in any other city of
its size in the South, but there are
many who would be grateful for
little assistance at Christmas time,
and between the Salvation Army, the
Kings Daughters and the Elks, the
probabilities are that none of these
will be overlooked.

Read the following from Beach's
Business Magazine:
"You must remember, my friend,
that not more than half the world is
disgruntled. Riches 90 not buy hap
piness, and poverty is not the gateway
thereto. Happiness is mutually and
reciprocity. No man can obtracise
himself and enjoy the passing days
He cannot shut himself up in the shell
of his selfishness and be happy. There
is no real pleasure that does not have
to be shared, no joy worthy of the
name that is not born of generosity,
kind-heartedness and self-sacrifice.
Boost is not the most euphonious
word in our vocabulary, but it has
come to take on a new meaning and
embody the highest and noblest pur
poses with the easiest, surest way to
their realization. Should l attempt
to epitomize our code l would say:
Pity and kindly thought are for the
quick, not the dead.
I'VE want and must have friends,
otherwise our lives are empty and bar
, rem. The real booster helps to supply
this hunger throughout life. We wan,
to live in a closer and more genuine
relationship. It is such an existence
that generates enthusiasm, faith and
success. The man who is without
friends, or thinks he is, has no source
of strength or inspiration. The man
without enthusiasm makes a near ap-
proach to nOnenity and it is Just as
true that enthusiasm is a spur to all
who come within its sphere"
