M. WRIGHT LIMITED 107 Shirriff Ave. North Bay x-50-16c Since its beginning over eighty years ago, The Salvation Army has been called many names! Some were decidedly opprobrious, especially in the early days when The Salvation Army's aims and methods were not understood or misinterpret- ed, But the Salvationists didn't mind, and the expletives, many other form of persecution, did not in any way retard The Army's growth. In the first world war the term "Salvation Army Lassie" was the favorite description of many for everyone who wore a bonnet of blue with scarlet fac- ings. These "Lassies" endeared themselves to the troops by their selfless service, often under fire. They added that quality of service to the distri- bution of refreshments that transformed, for weary, em- battled-men, "coffee into nectar and doughnuts into manna from heaven.) And the fighting men didn't forget ! In the second world war Sal- vation Army operations among the troops were carried on to an extent which, by comparison, makes world war 1's effort look relatively small, 3ut the' spirit of "service was the same, and the 'reaction of the fighting men was exactly the same, "Hallelujah Lassies" became "Sally Ann," and the term and symbol of the Red Shield became a pass-word in canteen and other auxiliary operations. Millions of sheets of notepaper bearing the Red Shield found their way back to Canada from all the battle- fronts of the earth, so that the folk at home. became almost as familiar with the symbol as the uniformed husbands and son.s 3ut how and where did the Red Shield originate? The Sal- vation Army, as almost every- one knows, bases it principales and - practices upon the Bible, and the choice of this symbol is no exception. In the Book of Nahum, the Prophet declares: "The shield-of his mighty men is made red; the valiant men are in scarlet." The allusion is appropriate: "mighty men with red shields," the warriors of right and help- fulness. And while The Salvat- ion Army has taken the red shield for its symbol, it would be the last to claim for itself the title of "mighty men." Its spirit is essentially modest though its wish and will to serve it vigorously ambitious, Red is the color of courage. The Shield is a weapon both of and defense. Its more sentimental connotation is also apt, for its inception The Salvation Army has been "Shielding" the hungry and: the homeless, the sorrowing and the sinning, in all parts of the world, and not least of all in the Dominion of Canada.
