 And back of it all is our religion. our faith, every time everywhere said the commander. "On the Bowery. in The Poppy Fields of Flanders
 And then this saintly. beautiful hearted. God loving, man loving woman who knows humanity at it's best and at it's worst, who was born into the work of saving souls as the daughter of the beloved General William Booth. founder of the Salvation Army. and who as a , little match girl, selling her wares in the streets of London's slums, made the following impressive statement:
 "The war has constructed the most wonderful manhood and womanhood. Men who have been supremely selfish have changed so that they now have thought for others rather than them selves; women whose highest concern has been how they should dress, have found the place God meant them to fill. Tens of thousands who only existed be- fore the war, now live!"
 If we can maintain all this splendid living and splendid being" she con- tinued, "in our nations men and women, profit which would come to our beautf- ful America. If we can maintain all this splendid. spiritual. physical men tai and moral development the period we have entered into would not be a reriod of reconstruction,' it would sim ply be case of now we've built this great thing, let us hold it up. let us retain it.

France" said the commander. What mean to convey is this: If the object of our service on the Bowery is the des- titute mother and child of the soldier, our work brings us into her misery-by her side-the child into our arms and we take it, as it were, in our very per son, her needs. We don't sit down and write a letter; our methods are to go with a basket of provisions. You see, it isn't system of reporting; it is a system of close touch.'
 ''On the battle fields of France we went right up on the firing line" she continued, her voice growing more ex- rressive, her manner more dramatic. Many of our 1assies have come back with their helmets dented with shrap- nel-those little bits of girls"
 And here the big-hearted. beautiful souled commander drew her chair nearer and put her hand on mine, those little bits of girls trembling in her voice for the comma nder is the very personification of pity, of love, of sym pathy, and she realized what her val iant soldiers had gone through
 Some have expressed to me their idea of the commander. fancying that she is primarily shrewd, keen, execu- tive, when in reality no actress was
 
 more eloquent, no statesman ever more intellectual. and withal none was ever more superb executive
 Returning to the subject of Recon struction" days, the commander said:
 Please understand that the Salva- tion Army is interested in 'Reconstruc- ton in the largest sense. We have always been the friend of the poor man. of the working man, but let me say right here that we are not in sym pathy with autocracy any more from the working class than we are from the wealthy class. We believe in efficiency too. We do not believe that the man who doesn't know how to drive a nail into a piece of wood straight should de- mand the wages that the man of eff ciency demands. No, indeed; we believe ret in autocracy, but reas6na bleness, fairness, right. We deplore unrest, and we believe in law and order first of all"
 That's what I'd call 'co- -operation.'

 It has perfumed the years with the fragrance of gracious deeds. Sometimes I have idly speculated on the strange fortuity of names; on the perfect echo of the name to the deed-- Shakespeare. Milton, Wordsworth, Ten nyson. Why is it that the worlds greatest singers come heralded with these significant names? Why is it that the infinite families of Smiths and Robinsons and Jonses scarcely ever sing?
 And Oliver Cromwell. John Churchill and Horatio Nelsonl
 There is the roar of guns and the thunder of great deeds in the very ac- cents of their names!

 s. "A rose by any other name,Y no doubt. but the world is grateful for the happy moment that gave it the name of "Evangeline Booth
 It is a name full of delicate reminis- cence, like the smell of lavendar in sealed box calling up memories, and it suggests not only personality, but an influence; not a presence alone, but persuasive spirit; for since that tre- niendous time when the mantle of her illustrious father, General William Booth, was destined to descend upon her fair shoulders. the name of Evangeline Booth has resounded throughout the world with paeans of praise from every lip.
 For Evange1ine Booth is not merely figure of romance, it is beautiful to think of her as a ministering angel gathering her forces about her to succor the perishing soldiers, and to hear of their pathetic devotion to the Salvation Army lassies who gave them doughnuts

lay of the land: The Lincoln highway hits the
Rockies hundred miles north of Denver. The
Pixies Peak route lands fifty miles south of Denver
The Santa Fe trail runs a hundred miles south
of Denver. From each of these transcontfnentaI
highways which carry the bulk of the national

starting from Denver to the north the park-topark
