1t has been decided by the leaders
of the Salvation Army to alter the
dates of their annual week Of self
denial. For many years it has been
held in the fall of the year but in
the future during the month of May
is to be the time. The change is made
owing to the fact that the collectors
found it difficult to canvass in the
fall because of the unsettled weather.
The reason for the self denial effort
is understood by most people, and last
year the people of Barre responded
most literally. Thousands of poor
fallen girls are looked after year.
ly: also homes are provided for
the waits and strays of our
large cities. At the present time
they have to care and provide for
twenty three Thousand starving peo-
pie in the famine districts of India.
Their shelters provide homes (tem-
porary) for thousands of destitute peo-
pie. 1t is to help this branch that
the self denial week is held. Will
friends willing to help please send
donation, or communicate with En-
sign Ernest Sims, of 80 Main street,
