"out Of Love Club"
Ont Of this work has developed one Of the most
nnioue organizations in the world It is the Serv-
i've Girls club, frequently called the "Out Of Love
Club" for the idea of the organization is that
out Of love for what has been done for them, they
IN turn want to help others. They have their own
department in the New York rescue home and
they are always made to feel welcome.
One Of our frequent visitors is a woman who
VAS sheltered and cared for in our maternity
hospital 20 years ago. She has never forgotten
what was done for her. and this influence has
meant much to others. In the Salvation Army
rescue work we have proved that gratitude Is the
rule ana forgetfulness the exception.
