I ask you, dear reader, what does it matter? To elaborate on the numerous, joy- ful details of the evening would be a lengthy task indeed, suffice for us to state that Miss Gladys McAllen carried off the Ladies Prize in a dress that consisted of 'a couple of 'gunny sacks sent to Oxdrift to look after the sales end of the store there. Granny's Boy is the big attraction at the Garrick this week. My Wild Irish Rose is having its first run at the Province theatre, Winnipeg.

In the words of its honoured founder, the Army "Goes straight for 'Souls--and goes for the Worst." ©: Nor salvation of unfortunates--down on their luck and needing a helping hand mass of information contained, it has | been decided to publi sh extracts at in- conditions and the indication of future | g, fc : | the middle aged and the aged, sick in can be accepted as reliable and entirely | to aid them in winning back their gelf- respect and the chance for a new start. 'There is only one thing to be said of the Salvation Army: it is the Golden Rule organization. Its religion is ser- vice for humanity. Its officers and members are practical, in that they believe it is little use preaching either heawen or hell to a man and expecting his permanent reclamation, unless friendship and help take a practical form. So the Army is practical. has its institutions for the young, for It body or mind; it is a reclaiming organ- ization. Furthermore, it is run with a minimum of overhead expénse.
