.'As child, Catherine Mumford
suffered from spinal complaint
and was for years in frail health.
Too weak to romp with other chill
dren, she lay all day on her sofa
and read history, geography, the
ology. Delicate as she was physi-
cally, there was nothing puny about
her intellect or her character.
One day when she was grown,
she was introduced to an intense
young preacher, Rev William
Booth. After much inward con-
fiict he had given up q business
position for a religious career that
was to include the founding and
development of the Salvation
Army. Meeting Catherine Mumford
on the first day of his new life, he
knew that she ewas the woman
whom he wanted to marry. The
deep love that sprang up between
them lasted throughout their long
years together.
Catherine Mumford was twenty
seven when they were married. She
was still frail, but she steeled her
=
ships of a travelling evangelist's
life. Though in the course OF her
marriage she had eight children
and was a devoted mother to them,
she followed her husbands work
with ever-fresh interest. Her chill
dren were still tiny when she be-
gan to speak at public meetings.
Uncertain of herself at first, she
soon gained confidence and effec-
tiveness. Her warm sympathy

ers in the East End of London,
who affectionately called her 1.-THE

She had unbounded. love and COM
passion, not only for those close
to her, but for all the wretched
and unfortunate win whom she
came in contact.
Finally, as the Salvation Army
developed, her life became a con-
slant and unstinted giving of her.
self. Devoted to her, home, she
had scarcely any, time for home
life, since her husband and chill
dren as well as herself were SUBJ
ject to constant demands for time
and service.
Never in all her life physically
strong, she suffered for many years
from serious illness. She bore
pain stoically and continued to
work. Finally, the doctors told her
she had only two years to live.
Her chief concern then was not
for herself, but for the husband
she had. so long and so devotedly

some new theory for the proper

the Chesterfield drama at the Gar
den theater, should be drama of
unusual interest, for its story de-
picts the results to two widely diff
ferent ideas on this important SUBJ
ject. The children, in this case are
boys, sons of wealthy brothers,
joint owners of one of the coun-
try's largest steel mills. One broth
err raises his SON in every possible
luxury, preparing him, so he says
for his proper place as q Chad

Is raised as a son of the laborer
Both, ultimately, attend the same
college, one sporting about the
campus in his own Rolls Royce, the
other paying his own way by
mental work about the school.
The story follows these boys as
they are graduated and prepare to
find their proper places in the
world OF business and society. They
face their problems with similar
birthrights. similar schooling. but
with utterly different social en-
vironments, and their reactions
represent Author Charles Belden's
unusual conclusions on the relative
merits OF these two widely diver
