-it AHY SALVATOI !- VALIANT IN Having Served Gloriously in the Trenches; js Coming Back 2 From Overseas for Peace Time Activities. r . ; . . ASKS HOME SERVICE FUND, National Campaign to Replenish Re sources Depleted by Long and Di rect Contact Services With n Our Bovs Scheduled for "i Ma v 19-26. Nefc York (Special). Like the 2,000,000 American boys whom 11 served so gloriously in the trenches o1 France, th Sal vation Army is comln.a back from overseas, ready to put asid its khaki uniform of war service, don again the "Civvies" and embark once more on its normal peace time activi ties. And, just like those doughboys, the Salvation Army has come out of the war victorious and with citations foi bravery, decorations for gallantry un der fire and golden chevrons indica tive of honorably won wounds on iti arm. The victory which the Salva tion Army has won is a victory ovei the obstacles that lay before It in its purpose of efficient service of the fight ers of Pershing's army. Its citations are the thanks, cheers and prayers ol 2,000,000 doughboys. Its wound stripes are rightfully golden of hue, for they typify the unselfish way in which the Army threw all Its resources finan cial, spiritual and moral into the ef fort to help the American soldiers in France. Now the Army Is asking the people of America to give ft concrete evidence of the gratitude which has been so -loudly, and so willingly expressed. From May 19 to 26 the Salvation Army will conduct in the United States a campaign to raise $13,000,000 for its Home Service Fund. The money Is needed both to recoup the fortunes of the Army, shattered by it? long service of the soldier and to permit It to carry on the work It has always done on the larger scale which the public now i demands. Raising the money by this means, the Salvation Army explains, will eliminate, perhaps permanently, the necessity for the ceaseless solicita tion of funds which has been a bug bear to the Army and the public alike. It will permit the workers of theArmy, rho, forced to devote more than half their time to gathering money, were in consequence only half efficient in their evangelistic and social service work, t to devote all their time In future to i the duties for which they have been trained. r The amount of the fund has been determined exactly and logically by means of budgets prepared locally by workers of the Salvation Army in all parts of the United States. Already headquarters for the cam paign have . been established In New Xork City. A ready- response in en couragement and cheering wishes for uccesg has been heard from all parts of . the country. Men and women prominent in all walks of life have volunteered their services as active participants in the drive. The Army's 2,000,000 loyal rooters the boys who went overseas in khaki are all lined up ready to help. The Army not only helped them over there, but it found 'Jobs for many of them after they had been mustered out of service, helped them get the clvilfan clothing that was necessary if they wanted to take those Jobs, fed many of them, gave them shelter and furnished them with trans portation to their homes. ' For the war service of -the Salvation Army is still under way. Its workers are still, many of them, in France, and its huts, clubhouses and hotels for the reception of the boys returning from abroad are in full swirv? here. Neither, the Salvation Army asserts, will its war work be abandoned until the last boy is out of the khaki of the army or the blue Of the navy. The larger activities which necessitated the coming campaign will exist and be financed independently of the service J of the fighters from abroad. i CARDINAL GIBBONS . ENDORSES S. A.
