SALVATION ARMY
DRIVE TO BEGIN
HERE WEDNESDAY
Capt. DYtk Makes Report
on Red Shield Reading
Room, Other Work

Next Wednesday, April 26, the
Salvation Army's annual drive Will
begin in Juneau and the campaign
is expected to be short, snappy and
withal successful, as in previous
wears. The local Salvation Armys
goal has been set at $4,000 to carry
on its varied work, and as Capt. t.
j. Dyck says, I'VE feel sure the
people of Juneau and district APP
preciate the work the Army carries
on and will give us liberal financial
support to the fund. Fifteen per-
cent of the fund goes to mainten-
ance of the work in Alaska and IS
percent remains in Juneau"
The Red Shield reading room,
operated by the Salvation Army,
has proved to be a great success
and greatly appreciated Capt.
Dyck, for the first time, makes the
following report regarding the Red
Shield reading room as well as Sal
walton Army work in Juneau:
Red Shield Activity
Lunch kits prepared and deliver
ed to soldier boys on guard totaled
1928 The lunches consist of hot
coffee, meat sandwiches and cook
les.
Sweaters, socks, ETC., made by the
Salvation Army and distributed to
soldier boys numbered 489
1877 articles of clothing mended,
altered and whatever might be
necessary to do to them were done
for the soldier boys.
One day room was furnished for
the boys which alone amounted to
SITS. The boys are still finding
great pleasure and comfort from
this accommodation.
142 recordings were made for the
men of our armed forces and I'M
told morale boosters these records
have turned out to be.
Things like mattresses, rugs,
dishes, ironing boards, electric irons,
ETC., have been available to our
fighting boys.
Several loans have been made to
boys who have had furlough on
their hands and not enough to carry
them through. The Salvation Army
was able to assist them.
Social Activities
249 free beds made use of during
the year.
189 men, women, and children
were remembered at Christmas time
with hampers and treats.
Circumstances for new clothing
have arisen from hospital patients
and the Salvation Army has met
the need.
1900 and more articles of used
clothing have been picked up and
made available to the needy FAM
lilies, not only in Juneau, bud also
in outlying districts.
The Army is interested in the
community affairs and assists in
many public appeals. From IL to
Is hours daily service is given by
the Salvation Army.
8735 soldiers, sailors, and civilians
have attended the Red Shield
Reading Room and making use of
its many facilities. The Salvation
Army is interested in the welfare
of all those who attend and spends
much time in assisting many with
counsel in personal problems of
those who attend,
Salvage Program
TOO felt hats were recently COL
lected by the school boys club and
turned over to the Salvation Army
salvage department. The felt hats
are used to line the jackets of the
air force. When there is need
arises in this department the Sal
walton Army sends out the cry.
Post War Activity
The Salvation Army will be tax
ing part in the rehabilitation pro-
gram helping the boys who will be
returning from the battlefronts.
