SALVATION ARMY
"FIRST TO SERVE—LAST TO APPEAL"
The Salvation Army has for 53 years been organized on a military basis -inured to hardship,
sacrifice and service. It is always in action, day and night.
It has maintained Military Huts, Hostels and Rest Rooms, providing food and rest for tens of
thousands of soldingesseach day. 1,200 uniformed workers and 45 Ambulances have been in service
at the front -in addllion to taking care of the needs of soldiers families here at home, assisnng
the widows and orphans, and relieving distress arising from the absence of the soldier head of
the family.
Notwithstanding all the Government is planning to do, notwithstanding the pensions and the
relief work of other organizations, hundreds of cases of urgent human need are constantly de-
manding the practical help the Salvation Army is trained and equip;oed to render.
