there is no reason why they Should not
New Ulm will be permanently align
ed with the Salvation Army and will
do it's share and more at every future
annual appeal. This assurance was
given at a meeting of local citizens,
who are interested in the great hum
unitarian work Of the Salvati on Army,
and Mrs. Mary Wishman, who assisted
New Ulm business men and other.i .insa
staging the drive for this years appeal.

mercial Club rooms, Sunday afternoo ),
and resulted in the election Of officers
and committees.
Mrs. Wishman brought out the ne
cessity of forming permanent local
board, whose duties are twofold. First,
to see that the Salvation Army service
is extended to unfortunates in New
Ulm and Brown county, and, secondly,
to raise the proportionate amount of
the county budget for state support
from Brown county In this con-
nection Mrs. Wishman stated that
Minnesota contributes more per capita
for the reha utilization Of it's unfortun-
ates than any other state in the Union.
