people, who bear no rank employed in 70 differet countries and colonies, with more than 1000 stations, now called corps.
 Many of this number are women, and we frequently are approached with a friendly criticism that we count all our women officers in our official ranks. Yes, the Salvation Army, in its charter, placed woman on an equality with men. and so arranged matters that women would have equal oppor- tunity with men in filling any official capacity A man might fill. The women have often succeeded where we men have failed especially in rescue work among fallen women and girls, and caring for helpless children in our va rious institutions. In addition to this our women have given good account of themselves as executives and as pub lie speakers"
 Some of our friends think we should not go into institutional work, but the demands grew to such large propor- tions that we found it was not safe and altogether impossible for our corps workers to take care of the many wayward girls. women and men who come to our meetings. After their conversion it was customary for the Salvation Army officers to take these bro ken down humans into their homes until this became so momentous in it's scope that today we have more than 1,500 institutions scattered throughout the world These institutions consist of rescue homes for wayward girls ana fallen women; homes for unfortunate children; working mems hotels: even- tide homes for aged men who have been left without friend or relative, and unable longer to engage in gainful occupations: rescue homes for prison ex-convicts, and numerous other ac> tivities for the uplift of fallen and scared humanity.
 The institutional work would not be possible were it not for the reli- gious feature of our work, and for the fact that no man or woman Is fitted for the duties of Salvation Army officer until he or she Is thor oughly converted to the Christian re- ligion and to the saving of human souls. Take from us the Christian re- ligion and there would be none of Us here today. The two are inseparable.
 RED HOT RELIGION
 'Tn closing let me answer a question that is asked us everywhere we go, and that is in regard to our policy as the new commanders of the Armys op- erations in this eastern territory. Our slogan shall be: Unity, Affection, Co., operation and Victory, Along With Plenty of Red-hot religion
 The meeting yesterday afternoon was followed by a street-corner meet- ing at ' o'clock and revival service at the Jefferson theatre at o'clock, conducted by the commander and his wife, assisted by Col. Alex Damon and William F. Palmer, both of New York; Brig. and Mrs. l.. M. Simonson, the Dixie divisional staff and 40 or more field and social workers.

What They Think
By BILL THOMPSON

The question was: Do you think Ger many will meet the allied ultimatum at noon today or do you think she will sub init to penalties which will probably paralyze her future world trade and place her economic life under control of the allied powers?
 Where asked: Here and there about town.
 The answers were:
 J. A. HIinson, Ills Forty-fifth street. north: f"Germany will meet the allied demands in the end. She will have to, but she is still playing the same old game of baking and stalling for as much time as possible. She reminds me of a certain class of poker player who has an ace turned down and Is stalking his all on tle chnace of catching another ore on the last throw"
 Charles Childers. 2733 Avenue F, south. .Germany is still as tricky as ever, and the allied nations should watch her. She probably has some cause up her sleeve, so she is stalling for time.' N Harry Manson. merchant, Fifth ave nue and Twenty-first street: One false move of the allied powers might throw the whole world back into war again. Certain nations that I might mention, were they to be lined up properly with Germany. they might again give tie world a stiff fight. German alone can not stage a comeback, and the allies should keep her in hand"
 J. F, Barnhart, Loews Bijou: q am sincerely glad that the United States is out of European affairs, but hope that the allies will not give Germany any more time. but will make her come across at once.'
