A BIRMINGHAM HERO

Samuel G. Blythe, in the Saturday Eve
 ming Post.
 But I must retell the story of "Rebel' Ingram, the gunners mate who unhesI- tatingly made the ultimate sacrifice to save his ship and his mates. It is a simple chronicle of mans devotion to duty, -ro his ship and to his comrades, and as heroic a~story as our navy boasts. One of our destroyers was torpedoed by a German submarine The torpedo came aft. The depth charges on a destroyer, or most of them, are carried aIt. A tor- pedo striking at or near them would eX- plode them, with much greater conse' quent damage to the ship than the tor pedo itself might cause
 Ingram was on deck. He saw the tor pedo coming, close inboard He had two courses of acton He might run ior-
 ward and save himself he might run afs and try to save the ship and ms ship- mates. Unhesitatingly he ran at 10 te- lease the depth charges before the 'o' pedo reached the ship if possible Iheie was no chance for Ingram, for even Il he reached the, depth charges ana re- | leased them in time the impact or ,ht torpedo, which could not be defiecteu would probably kill or main him put ne didn't stop for that
 He almost won his race, lie reachee the after big gun on the side ot the shis the torpedo was coming. Just as h' reached the gun the torpedo struck 'rh' yun was hurled overheard and all tha was seen of Ingram was splatter ol i red-nothing more He was blown tt l pulp.

Early Payment of
 State Taxes Requested

~ OVERNOR HENDERSON has NJ issued an address to the tax payers of Alabama in which he sets forth the demands upon the state treasury, which have been exceeding ly heavy for the first two months of the fiscal year, while the receipts have been small.
 In view of the situation the gov ernor asks that the taxes this year be paid more promptly than has been done in the past. It is pointed out that under the law the taxes are pay able from October I to January without penalty. It has been the cus- tom with many--in fact with the large maiority-to take advantage of all the time permitted without mourning the penalties, but it should be differ ent now.
 Governor Henderson recalls the years of 1914, 1915 and 1916 as years of depression. In 1917 prosperity in Alabama was beginning to return, and .sow in 1918 prosperity abounds,
 The taxpayers were not urged to make early payments in the lean years, although the money was sorely needed by the state. but now the gov
