might collect little money. II we ddn't-well,
that all right too" &-a
After the season was over, the vegetable grower

succeed DR.. John McCampbell upon his resignation

minister the affairs of the institution which, with
its patients and employees, represents small city
of nearly $500. 1t is an immense task, but Dr..
Watkins is equal to the responsibility when his
qualifications are considered from every angle
Professionally he stands as of the South S
ablest psychiatrists, recognition that has been
forced upon him because he has gone quietly and

public eye. For % years he has been first assistant
physician equivalent in rank to the office of as
sistant superintendent and it is to be expected
that he will continue the able administration of
bis predecessor. 81. 90
1t is to Dr.. Watkins, The Man, that the COM
munity gives its approval and best wishes. The
man in the Streets, to whom psychatry is but a
word that deies EXPERIMENTATION and who has less
knowledge of the care and treatment of mental
cases. knows DR.. Watkins man, 1t is the high

for three decades should unanimously agree as
to the wisdom Of his appointment to fill the va

Although the transfer of leadership tomorrow is
memorable in that it will pleace in office the third
superintendent to the hospital in its history

will be nothing to cause even a ripple on the

comes assurance that the hospital continues in safe
