BOURNE, which for thirty-fve years
has been the method by which the
army has financed its work. The
campaign will take place the latter
part of May of this year.
"The Salvation Army" said Mis-
Booth, "was given very small per-
centage of the funds raised in the
United War Work campaign and SOL
diers and citizens have for some
months been urging US to put on a
Campaign for funds in order that the
returning soldiers and the public may
have the opportunity to give to the
Salvation Army a thank offering en-

will go to the enlargement of the
work of the Salvation Army and to
the perfection of the machinery of
the organization. For many years
the Salvation Army has strug
gled against terrific odds financially
and we believe that our friends will
now rally to our aid gladly and
,cheerfully and give us the money
asked and badly needed at the pres
ent time"
In discussing the coming campaign
Brigadier A. w. Crawford, of the
Southeastern department, with heal
quarters at Atlanta, said:

We do not yet know just what the
quota of the Southeastern depart
