Club meeting of the United Church
on Aeormda,y evening 'wee an address
by Envoy G. Stanley Newman of
the WhIghain Corps, Salvation
Army. Envoy Newman was intro-

IS to brew people to Goa. 'The de-
nomination is not of particular
concern, as long as they attend
church, The Army is best known
for Its social welfare activities and
85 per cent of its work is with so-
da! problems. Me told of the pro-
gress at, the Salvation Army Vil-.
lage in London, .where children
from broken homes amid orphans
are cared for with more of a fam-
ily Writ than tire old Institutional
methods. There are several cot-
tages and a man and his .wife are
responsible for a family atmos-
phere for a given /lumber of child-
ren who hive with the in 'these
separate buildings.
The Army has a home In Ham-
,lieUe etalt
tilers, and through understanding
and kindness many of •these girls
are able to return to society with-
out stigma. in Waterloo a Dutch
couple are doing a tremendous job
for the Salvation Army by caring
for badly retarded children. Sal-
vationists also use a spiritual ap-
proach in •the case of alcoholics
and many of these have been help-
ed back to normal Ilfe through the
grace of God.
Envoy Newman was thanked by
Bill Renwick and presented with
a suitable gift. The ten couples

tion for the untiring work of the
