coats have deep. lovely fur collars.
Other wonderful materials in coats

Salvation Army Corps
Garnering Fruits and
Vegetable for Needy

The advantage of modern equip
ment for the Salvation Army has
been well demonstrated in the past
week by Ensign and Mrs Lawrence
Of the Augusta Salvation Army
Corps. who have been preparing for
their Thanksgiving and Christmas
dinners for the poor.
With the aid of their automobile
they have been able to visit the far
mers in the outlying districts of Au-
gusta and have brought to the head
quarters here, several loads of fruit
and vegetables for these dinners.
Many of the farmers prefer to give
in this manner and contributions of
all SORTS of fruit and vegetables have
been forthcoming. In many in
stances, the farmers have not had
their crops harvested and have not
had the time to dig or pick the fruit
and vegetables which they desired to
give to the Salvation Army.
In this case Ensign and Mrs. Law
renee have gone into the fields them
selves and have dug potatoes, picked
apples. pulled turnips, beets. carrots
and parsnips and have done any
thing necessary TO help get these
supplies.
BY Saturday night Salvation Army
il'tll was lllleu With lTullS ana NeSe-
tables. Ensign Lawrence estimated
that with the potatoes that have
been promised to him as we'll as
those which he has received. he will
have enough for both the Thanks
giving and Christmas dinners.
There are about 40 bushels of them
and probably half of this amount has
been either dug or picked up by En-
sign Lawrence and his wife.
OF turnips, beets. carrots and par
ships, there is between four and five
bushels each, with slightly more of
! the turnips and carrots. OF apples
there are many and several hundred
pounds of pumpkins and squash have
| been gathered. There are also many
tomatoes and many other vegetables
Some of the fruit and vegetables of
a perishable nature have been dis
posed of by a sale or by contribu-
tons to the poor but all necessary
| supplies for the Thanksgiving and
Christmas dinners which are not
| perishable will be kept until the
time for distribution.
