LOCAL RED SHIELD
CANVASS ON FRIDAY
The Salvation Army story is one
without an ending because its work
goes on as long as there is human
need. Its concern is for the good of
all of us—when disaster overwhelms
a family or a community, the Salva-
tion Army is there with comfort, aid
and help.
How often do you shake your head
in sorrow and surprise at the stories
of crime, juvenile delinquency and
hopeless poverty—stories that crowd
the pages of newspapers and headline
the radio news. Have you ever
thought how these stories might in-
crease if organizations like the Sal-
vation Army etopped their work?
Beyond their ready response to
calls for spirifual help, the Army's
workers spread their energies and un-
derstanding to help thousands of men,
women and children suffering from
illness, loneliness, misfortune and
broken homes. The Army of Mercy
supports homes for the aged, summere
camps for city youngsters and havens
for unmarried mothers,
Friday evening between 5 and 7, a
member of the Kinsmen Club of
Wingham, who are again conducting
the canvass for the Red Shield Appeal
in the Town of Wingham, will be call-
ing at your door. Your contribution,
large or small, means hope and help
to thousands throughout the country.
Please, on Friday evening, give gener-
ously to the Salvation Army through
the Red Shield Appeal.
