| generation babe fair to sink lower
than the last.
William Booth was thirty-five years
old when he came up to London from
Cardiff and Walsall, where he had
formed a "hallelujah band" whose
members were chiefly converted ex-
criminals. Since the age of fifteen,
when converted by the Wesleyans, he
had been a preacher. When twenty
years old he separated from that BODY
because he wished to engage in open
air preaching, afiliating himself with
the Methodist New Connection. In
1855 he married Catherine Mumford
and both preached through Cornwall
and Wales. In 1861 Booth resigned
from his New Connectionist ministry
because the church authorities sought
to restrain his travelling evangelism
ton" and henceforth he and his wife
were free lances.
Then in 1864 they came to London
and William Booth saw the iniquity
and squalor in which the slums were
stepped.
He conceived first of all that the
methods OF the orthodox churches
would have to be completely aban-
doned He concluded that the men and
women who would bring the gospel to
the East End must live there with and
Of those they sought TO save. The
lamp must be kept trimmed always
and never allowed to 20 out. Il muat
fash Il welcome and radiate its warmth
and light into tho outer darkness The
homeless must he sheltered, the hungry
fed, the hopeless inspired with a now
hope.
That was William BOOTHS vision
For forty-seven years he held it high.
Through persecution, ridiculc, calumny
he kept onward and upward along the
straight trail he had marked out for
himself. He never wavered, never lost
faith. And when he died in 1912 he
was mourned by kings and by millions
Of the lowly of the earth.
The East London Mission was the
name Booth gave his first venture in
the Bethnal Green woolhouse. In
1869 the title was changed to Christian
Mission, and that of Salvation Army
adopted in 1878. The latter change
brought with it thorough reorgani-
cation. The Salvation Army was
modelled after the British army and
William Booth became it's general
post he held till his death. Com
manders, colonies, lieutenant colonies,
brigadiers, majors, staff captains, ad-
/ jutants, captains, lieutenants and ser
geants follow in rank. Each territory,
comprising country, or several coun-
tries, is divided into provinces, a Prov
ince into divisions and each division
into from ten to fifty corps.

the people Of London who. perhaps,
did not permit their antipathy to this
strange brand of religion to be trans
lated into any overt act, still looked
uron the salvationists as cranks and
fanatics-a little bit crazy.
Their creed was orthodox enough
1t WAS their methods that CALLED and
piqued the conventional religonists.

that William Booth and his followers
threw to the winds. 1t was results
