But before you get TO wondering
how Elizabeth can flnd time to care

Putting the stamps in your album
helps you to learn geography. You
find out things about countries you
haven't even heard of, and sometimes
you find out things about countries
you already know about. For instance,
I never knew Portugal had more than

By ANGELA d. LEE, IS, of 916 45th
place NE, Cardoso High School.

A BOUT three years ago, in the
winter We were just getting ready
to 90 to bed, and we went to the cellar
to get some coal. We rolled up a
piece of paper and lit it, to make a
light.
Later in the night my mother
smelled smoke, and we ran downstairs
to find the cellar in flames. After
the fire had been put out, the firemen
said if mother hadn't smelled the
smoke the house would have burned
to the ground. am very careful now.

people physically as we'll as spiritually.
For this reason, it's family service work

lied youth department doing specific
work among the boys and girls of the

A new idea has been incorporated at
Camp Happyland this year. Instead
of taking several groups for short va
cations, the army has decided to pick
one group OF boys and girls and keep
them at camp for the entire period,
which will enable the camp director
and his assistants to really build up
this one group of youngsters.
Although it is no longer necessary
for the Salvationists to hold pictur-

of raising funds, the meetings are still
continued, the only difference being
that the clink of the coins on the

although the local division receives
its funds from the Community Chest,
it still retains the right to sell the

zine, because of the educational ad-
vantages involved in such sales.
