8alvatlon Army'3 Work for Fifty-Four
Years Recognized as Worthy of
the Highest Praise.
Except for tho war the Salvation
Army would have celebrated its fiftieth
birthday four years ago, but there
could hardly have been a better re
minder of what thi', unny hiid done
and bticome In n hnlf century than the
,recen iiward of the Victoria Crogstrto,
Jlfrea "Salvation Army soldiers for their"
service in France. Fifty-four years
ago, things were very different the
first appearances of the Salvationists
aroused opposition, rowdies tried to
break up the meetings, nnd on at least
one occasion members of the future
nnhy were arrested In England as
"disturbers of the pence." Oriirlmilly
simply an attempt to make converts
by outdoor preaching, the movement
which William Booth started In July.
1S05, was put on a military basis nnd
became the Salvation Army in 1878,
since which time It has grown from
75 corps In England to about 9.000
corps nnd outposts In more than CO
countries. The nrmy was officially
recognized by King Edward VII when
ho received the founder at Bucking
ham palace In 1001; a different yet re
markable "official recognition" oc
curred quite recently when n tnbleau
honoring tho Salvation Army was made
tho climax of the current "Ziegfeld
Follies" on Broadway.
