FOR CHRISTMAS DINNERS
Salvation Army Arranging to Dis
tribute Them.

Captain Herbert Young in charge
of the Salvation Army in this city has
requested the Gazette to publish the
following:
For years the Salvation Army has
done much to alleviate physical suf
fering through the hard winter months
and our efforts have been systematized
so that there is minimum of waste,
the poor getting the maximum of re
lief. We are the best equipped or
ganization, and most experienced in
dealing with the problems of the poor.
Many city governments are recogniz-
ing this to such an extent that they
are turning the care of their chari-
table activities over entirely to the
Salvation Army. Nearly every city
in the state of Virginia makes an an
nual grant to the Army, Lynchburg
giving us $1,000 per year and other
cities giving accordingly.
We are appealing TO the good peo-
pie of this community to come to our
assistance at this Christmas season.
Funds are urgently needed to carry
on our. winter relief work, and pro-
vide Christmas dinners for the worthy
poor. Will you help US with this work
The increased cost this year of all
staple articles of food, clothing, coal,
etc. has added to the difficulties of
those in need and to ours in caring
for them
In few days orr collector will
call at your door for your contribu-
ton. Be sure when you give that
your contribution goes to the Saliva
tion Army for the poor of Alexandria.
All of our printed matter will bear
the name Of Captain Herbert Young.
Unless it does SO do not give. %,
! Thanking you in advance, sincerely
yours. :; Capt. Herbert Young.

EvANGELISTIC WORK
Finished at Rochester, Pa, by Rev.
Gypsy Smith, Jr.,-Goes to
State College for Next
Campaign.

Rev. Gypsy Smith, jr., has just
finished four weeks evangelistic
campaign at Rochester, Pa. During
the meeting total of 126 conversions
were reported, and Mr.. Smith was
given $1,066 in cash. His next cam
paign will be at State College, in the
same state, and will open on the last
Sunday night in this month. He ex-
poets to remain there for three weeks.
Preparations for the meetings he
is to hold in the city of Washington
in the month of Fbruary, in which
the Presbyterian churches are inter-
ested. are already under way. 1t is
said that some twenty-six churches
will unite in the work to be undertak-
en- there and that large tabernacle
with a seating capacity of at least
three thousand will be provided
1t will be remembered that during
Rev. Smiths recent meetings in this
city several of the railway employees
made start in the better life, and in
this connection the following, con-
tributed by W. B. Smithers, a
conductor for many years on the
Southern railroad, whose home is in
Alexandria, may be of interest.
The story is told of an old rail-
road man who was converted and
joined the church, and was asked to
lead in prayer upon one occasion, and
this is the way he worded his sup
plication: l.,cf.,t =
80. Lord, now that ] have flag
ged Thee, lift. up my feet from the
rough road and plant them safely on
the deck of the train of salvation.

CREATE A SENSATION STATE PRISON PROFITS
Report of Superintendent Of Virginia
Penitentiary Shows Income During
Year of S39,332.5o.

Net profits amounting to S39, ,3332.50
are shown by Maj. J. B. Wood, Sup
crntendent Of the State Peni-ehtI&ry,
in his report of the operations OF
this institution and the ccnvic. road
force for the fiscal year ending Sep
tember 30. 1916, filed yesterday with
Governor Stuart. The total assets,
including plant, equipment and money
on deposit, are given as SlS2.1lh.T
The gross earnings of the penitcn--
tiary for the past fiscal year are CIV
on as sl43.9l5.S4, Of which $140,l75.l4
was derived from hire and s3,740.7o
from other sources. Notwithstanding
the increase in cost OF all supplies.
the yearly per capita for the prison
ers has been $137,97, as against Sl"o.-
rs for the same period ending Sep
tembcr 30, 1915.
THE health Of the prisoners re-
ports Major Wood, has been excep-
tionally good. We had only five
deaths in daily population of 1853
The population of the prison is
slightly on the decline, there being
1850 present on October !, 1916, as
against 2,3G4 on October !, 1915,
The falling off has been more marked
in the last few months that during
the first months of the fiscal year.
"The discipline of the prison has
never been better, and the prisoners
apparently better contented with pri-
son life, which is in large measure
due to the cooperation Of the prison
ers themselves.
"The past year has been 4 very sue
cessful one with the convict roadforce
The unprecedented advance in the cost
Of the necessary supplies for the
maintenance of the camps has not
made so great an increase in the
yearly per capita cost as had fear
ed, the per capita cost being $l%33,39
for the year 1916, as against $12G.25
for the corresponding period Of 1915,
To do this has required a very care
ful handling of the finances, which I
could not have done except for the
hearty cooperation of those who are
in charge Of the camps.
The health of the camps has been
very good when We take into con-
sderation the number of men, handled
during the year, which has been 1889
convcts and 2.367 jailnlen, making
total of 1926"
