every great action is book. All who
would study with advantage in any
art whatsoever, ought to betake them
selves to the reading Of some sure and
certain books oftentimes over; for to
read many books produceth confusion,
rather than learning, like as those
who dwell everywhere are not any
where at home.-Martin Luther.

WATTS HANGED

Slayer of Vicksburg Physician Pays
Penalty as Victim OF Gallows.
Port Gibson, Miss, April 15-Jesse
Watts, murderer Of DR.. ID. s. Alver-
son, prominent Vicksburg physician
was hanged here in the county jail
at the noon hour today.
Watts went to his death a little
more than fifteen months after he
had lured his victim to a lonely spot
in the Vicksburg National Park and
took his life.
The execution was private, only
a small company of spectators be-
ing allowed to witness it, and the
program carefully planned by the
authorities was carried out with
smoothness and precision.
Sheriff Sam Bagnell, World War
veteran, who had the unpleasant job
of dropping Watts to his death, was
assisted by Sheriff e. H. Shannon, of
Warren county. The trail of Watts
took place here, the case having been
brought from Warren on change of
venue, it having been contended by
the attorneys for Watts that he could
not get fair and impartial trial in
Warren county.
After the execution, which occu-
pied but a few minutes, the neck of
Watts having been broken by the
fall, the body was carried from the
Jail to the second floor of the court
house and turned over to relatives.
It will be prepared for burial and
carried back to vicksburg this after
noon.

~ YER there, on the fighting front when the
boys went back to the first relief zone. as
they dragged along, the first bh of cheer they met
was Salvation Army doughnuts Away up, under
FIRE, in the real trenches, in what was left of
house knocked to pieces by German shells, the Sal
vationsts made and distributed doughnuts and
homemade" pies.
How they got there one knew. How they
found places to set up their Kitchens one knew.
They were in forbidden territory. No one but the
army was permitted to be there. But somehow they
got there. Where they came from, who brought
them, how they got their materials, has not been
told. They just suddenly appeared, and always
where they most needed.
If you want to feel the jolt OF a healthy fist,
just say something sighting to a doughboy about
what the Salvation Army did in France. If you
want to hear English language "as she is spoke, "
with volubility and emphasis, merely intimate to one
who service at the front, that Salvationst
did anything that not exactly the right
thing there, anywhere.
Yet what they did in France is just what they
have always done here at home, and doing
They pick the worse jobs, the toughest places and

days, demure, splendid Salvation lasse with her
pokebonnet and her tamborinc, walk into bar
room and hear the coins jingle in the tamborinc as
she passed it from to the other who col
lected there: IL you did not you were never there.
Nor this just in the respectable" saloons. but
also in the worst of them.
They did not go there just for the money 1t
a part of the Salvation campaign. The sight
OF the lassie gave many tough heart jar and
many who had not thought of home for
years, had the home picture revived Many one,
too, remembered that there was place he could
go and be welcomed. when too low down to be
received anywhere else. Many has sought
that place and rebound his self-respect and lost
manhood
Can the Salvation Army be repaid for what it
has done and is doing? 1t does not ask to be re-
paid 1t asks no reward. 1t does not seek Vic

this budget is $4,000 To get this amount there
must be several contributions of $1,000 each others
OF $500 and down, while there is ample assurance
that thousands will give their mites Will those
who can, give the larger amounts? Surely they
will. Wealth does not atrophy the heart and it IS
atrophied heart that does not respond to the
work of the Salvation Army.
