THE SALVATION ARMY DRIVE

THE SALVATION ARMY DRIVE.
The Salvation Army Drive begins
tomorrow morning. This organiza-
ton is raising $4,000 from the
whole county, to again re-establish
it after financial depletion as re-
suit of it's splendid war work. Good
men are called to support the cause
here, and as result of their work
the whole amount should be written
in day.
The Salvation Army is one Chris
tian agency working for the uplift
of the human race in a field all its
own. When war came it extended
its good work to the camp, the field
and the battle line. In all the re-
ports from over there published and
spoken no word of criticism has
come of its methods, it's money or its
men. The American soldier to
man pays it homage for the good
work that it did. In its desire to

yond its financial means. All funds
were pooled for the support of the
boys winning the war. The result
is that its funds needed for the con-
tinuation of the work after the war
are gone and as it has no revenue
save its contributions it is appealing
to all Americans for succor and help.
There is another thought worthy
of consideration here. The future of
our country is imperiled by war
made conditions. Many men are
facing life's problems anew. They
are battling with new conditions
which they fail to comprehend. Dis
order and unrest are the great prob
lens of our time. The Message
spoken here and there, on the cor
ner and in the meeting place. may

strengthen his faith, make him be-
lieye that all will be we'll. Such
agencies working along these lines
deserve support now of all citizens
who would help their country.
This call, in comparison, is a lit
tie thing. Let's do it well.
