Genuine gratitude for service rem.
dered in France to someone very dear
to her was probably the reason for
gift made to the Salvation Army by
"a young Dallas business girl during
the recent Salvation Army Home Ser.
vice campaign in that city She pledg,
ed 81 a month for the rest of her life
and promised to increase her pledge
as she saw fit. If she lives thirty
years longer, this will be a gift OF
$3.50. to the Salvation Army. She
did not consider this gift too gener

Army had rendered her through some

DOES Big WORK

From bOU 10 l,VUo lA0h Pi
aositions every year is the record
Of one of the smallest institutions
in Dallas, TeXas-smallest thai IS ID
size Of the building occupied not in
work accomplished-the little Saliva
ton Army Sto:e at 15lo bFan
street. This store occup"ing a s:naJ
twenty foot front shed is VS. I"
daily by scores of the Dallas FOO
Ad:utant John Wood who Is II
charge estimates the number pat
-onizing the Store every day al
from 60 to 100. Because of Its coA'a'
WITH 30 MANY men who are out O.
work. calls are made on the store
when all kinds of help are wanted.
But placing men in jobs is no'
the main purpose of this Store II
gathers up old clothes, magazines
furniture, everything that may nave
a secondhand value. The BOOKS ar
sent 20 cheer up the soldiers IN ~
lonely army posts on the bora'"
over 600 have been sent down IN IN
last six months. The magazine
and cid newspapers are SOLD TO th'
waste mills. The old clothes and
| furniture are fumigated, sorted over
and then displayed for sale in the
little Store.
Inst enough r. charged Tor these
things to cover the expenses OF tn
Store. The fact that even nominal
priceIis charged keeps the store
from being regarded as a charitable
institution by the poor themselves
They are able to patronize it with
no loss of self-respect when they
can feel that they are paying 1or
what they get. Even the street labor
er with his wages Of 81 and $50
a day can outfit his family at COST
Of few cents gar" "r'. p
wcman's dress costs twenly-lFt
cents, ch:lds fifteen, and snoe'
cost from ten cents to fly cents
. A mans shirt costs only tifte91
cents and collars and cravats are
, given away.
-, An old trunk of collars sfanc
near the door ready for all the mo-
who need them. Many 4 iob la
been gotten out of that trunk of &C
lars" Mrs. Wood said the othe. day
Men come in here who canno g
a jcb a; long as they are dirty, an
: vet they have no money to Du
clean clothes. We tell them to hel
themselves to a collar and a tt
J and we give them a clean shirt
we have one. Often they ask to pu
them on in our little back room
Il Then they 60 out looking neat an
soon find work.
Il Whenever poor person come
into the store who is not able
. pay for the things he needs, Adj'
}, tant or Mrs. Wood insist upon givln
" them the necessary articles withor
, the payment of the small price. N
~ money is ever accepted from cri
'l piles. These people are told to say
y their money for time of need.
u No charge is ever made for Il
y food which is often donated. TT
o. other day a baker gave 200 loave
III of bread which had been left ov'
d. from Saturday until Monday. Tn
VI bread was stacked on the counte
X, of the store and everyone coming
vi was told to help himself.

It was great pleasure to see Mrs. Mil igan able to be up after such pro- tracted and serious illness. Mrs. Milligan was not timid in tell ing her callers it was her seventy-first birthday, rather proudly, as well she might be, for it is beautiful indeed to see one grow old so gracefully. As the spring advances and the days grow warm, Mrs. Milligan hopes to be able to get out among her friends again.
 Mrs. Milligan's callers included the Mesdames Jack Wilson, Julia Kleis- Ter, M. J. Fronske, H. G, Ehlers, Clyde Harvey, Tom Rees, Al Sanford, c. w. Compton, T. k. Pulliam, Frank Harris. on, L. E. Hart, John Metz, s. s. Ack- CT, and Misses Jephena Perkins and Alma Acker.

LEAVES LEGS IN FRANCE; DANCES
 FOXTROT HERE
Uncle Sam Gives Soldier Boy
 New Lease on Life.

Lilliard Evans Is colored soldier boy who had both legs blown of in ac- tion. He lives for the present at Let. terman General Hospital at the Pre- sidio in San Francisco. He can and does dance fox trots and one-steps. How? Why?
 Of course to dance a fox trot or a one step fellow has to have legs-good legs. We'll, Evans has them-not his own legs of flesh and bone, but his own willow legs with joints and everything He is going to leave Lettermap pretty soon and go back to work and make his living and probably get married and raise children. That's the how.
 The why of it is-the government of the United States has gone in for leg and arm making. It is giving spe- cially built leg or arm or hand or a pair of legs or arms or hands to every soldier who lost his legs or arms in the war. At Letterman in particular they are making legs and arms and hands In their own workshop. They are mak. ing them because they have hit upon better artificial limb than the private manufacturers are turning out, not ex- cepting the Liberty Leg" which the government supplies in most cases.
 This Is one phase of the reconstruc. tion work that Uncle Sam is quietly carrying on. It Is one of the least ex- pensive. but 1t is costing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Remember that when Uncle Sam come aknocking at your door with the Victory Liberty Loan. Much of the money you will lend is going to regenerate these men who gave of their flesh and blood for their country.

BRITISH EXPERT ANALYZES WAR
 SAVINGS WORK
Large Number of Investors Gives Greater Stability to
 Financial Situation.

Of the benefit to a nation of popu. ! lar investment in government securi. ties of small denominations, a stu dent of the British War Savings movement writes:
 "As the nations power to save and accumulate capital depends upon an excess of income over necessary ex. penditure and as this power to save is obviously greater amongst the we'll. to-do, 1t Is imperative that future propagandist work should be con. ducted amongst the upper and middle classes no less than amongst the wage earners.
 "The work must also be continued amongst the wage earners, for ob- vious reasons. We all realize the advantages to be derived by the state from the more even distribution of wealth which an increase in the number of small investors implies. We all realize the greater stability which large number of small in. vestors must give to the financial situation. It Is certain also that wise spending and saving amongst the masses of the people tends to in- crease their efficiency and develop their self.respect. It must also result in the growth of more efficient race of producers in the next generation. In this direction wise spending may ultimately have m less hanaficial effects than saving although not so immediately adding to the material wealth of the nation"
 There is food for thought in this for the people of the nation with our War Savings Stamps so accessible.
