Salvation Army WORKINGS
To Be BYOadened Locally
By Staff Captain Gearing.

"One Of the most difficult problems that
have confronted the Salvation Army has
been the finding Of employment for peo-
pie who are out OF work. This is par
ticularly true Of later years. as the army
has become known as the Poor Mans
Friend. People have come 10 us want
ing food and clothing-Others wanting
work.
Finding we were unable 10 supply all
their needs. Commander Booth-Tuker
set 10 work 10 arrange plans which
would enable us TO deal with this human
waste by collecting the material In the
cities. He succeeded. ind we are now
enabled to assist thousands Of the most
needy, helpless and hopeless.
1T is now some five years since the
work was organized IN our large cities
for the reclamation Of human waste by
the collection and sale Of our material
waste.
Booth fuckers Plan.
Some say. How is this done?' The
answer is simply this.
N man comes TO us to help. We say
TO this man who is oar or work and has
no home, money. friends. food or place
TO sleep. and but little to wear: Do Won
want 10 go 10 work. sir? We can ONLY
help you TO help yourself The man
says: 1 have been looking for work but
could find none
This man is now given a chance TO
get on his feet. The work we give him
is the work Of sorting paper. which is
collected Tor the purpv-c anG sold in
lots TO paper mills. Other men are en-
ployed IN repairing old furniture. others
in driving teams. We make work in
order TO give work. We never turn down
any who are willing to work
Now. to the man who goes 70 work
we say: We will give you lodging.
food, and clothing. In addition 20 that

Of the week We will pay you ali Won

81 per week this way, and many are
given a new start in life.

The management OF the secondhand
store IS included in this department.
The work Of the store is simple In It
self. The men select cast-off clothing.
discarded furniture, old carpets. rugs

poor who are unable TO purchase at the
regular stores.
Small payments are expected for the
some. thus enabling the army 10 make

forting Pronunciamento.

Bald heads are the sign Of athletic
brains"
Wearers of wigs and toupees and skull
caps may take some comfort In this
statement Of a Washington barber who
has chair I'm one OF the most fashion
able shops and doesn't talk more than
half the time.
You sec it's this way" the barber
explained as he rubbed the shiny bald
spot on the top OF the head OF one Of
his regular customers. when you use
your arm your muscle gets big and
hard. That's just the way with the
brain. Doctors. lawyers and people that
do brain work use their brains so much
that they grow and swell their skulls
Then the scalp isn't big enough for
the skull and II gets so tight that the
blood supply is cut Off and the hair
starves to death and falls out Who
ever saw a bald-headed sewer digger

prominent singing condolences. They
waved their hands Ike palm-leaf fans

shouted their songs. until the plaster got
chills and fever and shook itself of the
ceiling.
On a winters evening. with the late
Stuart Robson. who took a fatherly in
terest in her career, Miss Cahill was
watching one of these ''flag-waving'
condolences in a New York theater. Mr..
Robson was considered one of the most
intellectual actors of his day and his
views on dramatic art were always Of
value. He was bored by the Coincidence
who was singing, though the audience
was evidently shouting with laughter
Il m afraid I'll never be a success as
a singing Coincidence" said Miss Cahill
as she watched the actress.
why not2' asked Mr. Robson.
Il could not be like that woman"
That woman Is not a success" said
the veteran comedian.
But hear the audience laugh See
them slapping their knees said Miss
Cahill
"Ahi' said Mr.. Robson, that is the
point She is playing to the people who
guffaw and slap their knees. Their
Ideas Of comedy are primitive. They
like to see a player perspiring. Look at
the rest Of the audience. Note the more
intelligent faCes-how bored they look.
They are the people to whom you must
appeal TO win permanent success, and
they dislike the perspiring drama"
Miss Cahill has followed Stuart Rob
sons excellent advice and her work is
now distinct. Wherever she appears her
houses are packed with the most repre-
sentative people. to whom her artistic
work appeals.
Judging from the advance sale at the
Columbia Theater her Washington en-
gagement Will prove a record breaker

eleven years. and his coming to Wash
ington is expected TO stimulate the
work to a great degree.
Local Needs.
The local branch of our work has
been here for sixteen years, and in a
city like Washington II is almost i'm
possible for the local corps TO take care
OF the human waste. First the corps
would need a place to give men en-
ployment. and then a place TO feed
them and let them sleep in. Where an
Industrial home is run in connection
with the local work we have every
chance 10 help men TO their feet
TO illustrate: A poor fellow goes 10
the meeting and feels that he would
like TO become a better man. He is
converted. Now, he says to the cap
tain: I am out Of work; what am L
to do? I've no money. no friends. no
home. What shall I do?'
'Tf we have no Industrial work the
captain can do but little. He might
give him % cents 10 go TO some other
place 10 sleep. The wanderer gets out
in the morning-no breakfast. no money
TO get any. no work. But suppose we
have an industrial home. The captain
gives him card, telling Elm to go to

him TO work in the morning and will
look after his needs.

Washington.

Still in Court.
Not long ago it was charged the case
had Deen dismissed on a technicality
II Is learned. however, the case is still
In court. It's latest phase is the filing
of demurrer by the defense, in which
IT is maintained that the Government
action in equity for the recovery Of
damages Of about S2.00O.OO0 is the proper
remedy, and that a law action should
have been undertaken. The last advices
received ut the Department of Justice
indicate that arguments on demurrer
have not yet been made
originally, five law actions for tres
pass were begun against the Amalga-
mated interests. These have been
dropped and one general action in
equity for the recovery of about two
millions Of dollars was begun.
Lightning Changes.
The reason for the change to an
equity action was that the parties con-
cerned in the alleged timber depreda-
lions were in the habit of making SO
many lightning changes through the or
ganization Of new corporations and
transferring OF interests from one cor
poration TO another for the purpose Of
baffiing the Government that under the
law action and the strict rule of tres
