The Salvation Army is organized for service of the highest quality. Its men and women stand ready to go down into the very depths to help human beings who have been brok- en in their fight with life, just as they stood ready to go into the face of battle fire to help the men whose bodies were broken by the weapons of the enemy. The watchword of the | Salvation Army is "Service First, Last and All the Time," although that is not inscribed on their banners. We never knew the efficiency of the Salvation Army until it began to minister to the needs of our own boys on the field of battle. Then we discovered that we had been enter- taining unawares a body of highly trained, highly efficient, highly organ- | ized workers for mankind. When we learned how much doughnuts and coffee meant to our own tired boys, we began to see how just such com- fortable treatment might contribute to the redemption to lives of use- fulness of those ready to despair in the battle against circumstances that have all but downed them. It requires money to equip, train and maintain army of workers. This money has, in the past, been provided through personal solicita- tion of members of the army itself, lassies taking collections in their tambourines, men and women in the uniform of the service calling from house to house to secure the meagre contributions of the comfortable an who have had no acquaintance with! grief, know but little of the needs that the army has met for the un- fortunate. This is a day that does not coun- tenance waste of effort, at least the- oretically. We spend money make machinery more efficient and to provide inanimate help to make the labor of men and women more efficient. We do not contemplate waste in production with any degree of complacency, and we must have come to see the waste .in the use of highly trained men and women, tak- | en from their proper work, to can- vass the town for dimes and dollars, when, by subscribing to the fund for operating expenses we can turn that energy into the helping of the dis- tressed who turn to the Salvation Army for aid, comfort and advice. We have, in the past before the war, been disposed to look upon the Salvation Army as a purely religious organization. It is, but it is a body that combines faith with work, which is certainly a sort to make an ap- peal to us all. The Swiss Commission A large commission from Switzer - land is visiting the United States for the purpose of studying the indust- rial systems of the country. Certain-' ly an unfortunate time has chosen for the journey, for there is little in' our industrial conditions to- day that invites emulation. In the days before the war the conditions that prevailed in American industry would have excited wonder in the minds of representatives of the same industry in the old world. American working men were better paid, better housed, better provided for in every way than those of any country on the other side of the sea. The American working man's home to! been | would have been a revelation to those accustomed to the standards that prevailed in Europe in the days be- fore the war. Today every industry in America is suffering from the paralyzing ef- fect of the conditions that are breed- ing greater and greater under-pro- duction. How little may we do, seems to be the watchword of those | who are producing the necessaries of the general public. Selfish pro- prietors have little interest in in- creasing their profits beyond a set point because of the revenue law that requires the payment of a large | proportion into the coffers of the government under the excess profit | tax. The devastating effect of the | "cost plus" plan, originated and fol-| lowed by the departments of war and | the navy during the period of pro- | duction of war materials, is felt! everywhere. The more the output! of the materials could be made to cost, the greater would be the per | cent of profit allowed. It is the habit of mind that it is not easy to dissi-! pate now that conditions are differ- ent. So far as organization and system in the operation of the great indus- tries of America are concerned, the delegation will no doubt be "impressed by what they see in their tour of the great industrial centers lof the United States. | has produced men of genius in that Swiss | | life. | tions of the operation of the great | systems that have been evolved are bewildering enough to the student of economic conditions who is familiar | with the American character. To the men of foreign birth and old world standards there must seem to be no { explanation of the conditions that | they find to be existent. ESOCIETY 3 By Ruth Risley | | | | | | | | successful subscription card party | was given at Indian Hill Golf club {for the benefit of John Miller, the flagman, who so heroically risked his l own life in a vain attempt to save | {the lives of others.
