Editorial

Some one. said recently,
1.-THE Salvation Army Is the
same today that it always
has been. The people just
discovered it because of
the war"
It's true, and you would
appreciate it still more if
you would sit in one of the
divisional Offices and see
the vast accommodations
that are being provided
daily in our cities for the
men and women who are
without food. clothing and
sleeping accommodations.
Everything possible is
done to care for the physi--
cal and, spiritual. wants of.
those. who need it.
1t is a pity the public
hasn't been asked before to
contribute in a big way for
this wonderful work.
Now that you have the
opportunity dig down deep
into your pockets and give.
GIVE LITERALLY.
