THE. GREATEST WORK

HEsbiggest work Of the Salvation Army is not
i alwayssin the helping Of needy ones with food,

Im-pcrtant=perhaps more so-that Is done quietis,
without any attempt to secure publicity. and their
only reward Is In the fact that they know they have
heipedsto make the world stustya little better.
Seven years ago two girls living in Fairmont,
whose names for obvious reasons cannot be given,
had Erown3 toIths ages OF ten and twelve in d home
Of vicious influences. Their parents were sh!ftless,

interested In Salvation Army work and came to
make their home with that organization.
