Solvation for Men and Women
found in Cleanliness Says
Brigadier.
Omaha, Nebraska. Tho alms and
purposes of the Salvation Army, as
thoy havo been followed during the
past forty years of his association
with it, wero recently outlined by
Brigadier William Andrews, nowly
appointed Chief Divisional Officer for
Iowa and Nebraska.
"1'ho Salvation Army advocates
soup, soup and Salvation," said Brlg.v
tiler Andrews. "The very first thing a
man, who Is down, needs is some
thing to sustain tho Inner man; tho
noxt thing ho needs Is to bo made
clean, from this point tho matter ot
winning him hack to respectability
is mado easy.
"Tho Salvation Army knows of no
caso Ih Its history whero tho heart
of either man or woman has not boon
readied by theso methods. It knows
of no degroo of despair or degener
acy where tho subject may not bo
lifted up and out of his or her con
dition by Christian love.
"The Salvation Army Is first of nil
a religious institution, seeking to win
tho souls ot men; Its second prlmo
purpose is service to humanity. This
second purpose takes us to tho farth
ermost points of tho compass, Into
sixty-four countries and tho squaro
deal is preached to men in thirty
two different tongues.
"Each of tho sixteen major activi
ties of the Salvation Army was born
of an urgent need which tho Army
found It within their provinco to
supply. Tako for Instance, tho Sal
vation Army industrial homes. In
theso homes, by means of waste ma
terial and waste men wo obtain two
tanglblo results, llrst tho support of
tho man and tho retention of his
self respect. Second by sorting
rags, repairing old furniture, cloth
ing, shoes and by cainlng chairs tho
poor ore supplied with needed art
icles at a song."
Then, again, the Salvution Army
found that in all populated centers
throughout tho country, especially In
winter time, there are great num
bers of homeless men out of work.
This was more particularly so when
tho country was wot. These men
would float around llko driftwood on
tho water, without money or friends;
human (lerillcts so to speak. Wo
found that we could help in 'tho re
generation of these men most effect
ively by establishing Salvation Army
lodging houses where for a dime or
fifteen cents a man might obtain a
bed, a bath nnd a placo where ho
might launder his soiled clothes to
begin the next day anow. In many
.ot theso hotels in cities llko Chicago
and New York and Dos Moines, cof
foo and rolls wero furnished without
extra cost.
Annually through its religious
open-air and other .services tho Sal
vation Army reclaims approximately
'GO.QOO potential Bolsheviks.
The Salvation Army early in its
oxistonco found out that it was com
paratively easy to influence girls to
chango their lives from lives of
shamo but that these girls when left
in their, old surroundings of com
mercialized vice soon drifted back so
a kind-hearted Salvation Army Las
sio opened up her homo to tho form
er inmates of tho lime houso dis
trict in iLondon. This was the bo
ginning ot our present maternity
work and now in tho United States
only, wo caro for 0.000 child mothors
and their babes in our Maternity
homes, ono of which Is located In Dos
Moines.
Post war conditions have not les
sened but greatly Increased the de
mands on tho Salvation Army for
aid. Wo havo presented these to our

In tho time of our ancestors by tho

At llrst thought It might seem that
no more particular Interest would

BUILT IN HONOR OF BUDDHA
Hill Temple of Boro-Budor in Java Ii
One of the Marvels of the
World Today.
The hill temple of Boro-Budor In
Java Ih ono of the most gigantic nnd
finest works ever reared by tlo an
cients. It represents more human
labor and artistic skill than tho great
pyramid of Egypt. Said Alfred R.
Wallace, tho scientist: "Tho human
labor and skill expended on Boro
Budor Is so great that that expended
on the great pyramid sinks Into insig
nificance." The temple was built about the
seventh century of our era. It stands
In Cent nil Java, originally a monu
ment of Buddha. The ashes of Bud
dha, originally divided Into eight parts
and burled In eight different places,
were disinterred and re-dlvlded Into
8-1,000 parts, which were placed In
vases and distributed all over his
dominions.
When Buddhist missionaries went
to Jnva In tho seventh century they
carried with them ono of theso vases.
As a lltting receptacle for the vaso,
Boro-Budor temple, tho finest piece of
architecture In the then known world,
nnd ono which law never been rivaled
lnco, was erected.
Candles on Tonstl
An adult Eskimo Is capable of con
suming twenty pounds of flesh and oil
dally. A Yakut will wasli down tills
quantity of flesh with a quart or two
of train-oil, and take as dessert a
dozen tallow candles.
A famous naturalist, who cooked
part of a boaconstrlctor, declared that
It ta.sted very much llko veal. On nn
other occasion he tested crocodile and
pronounced tho flesh excellent.
Froblsber and Settle both comment
ed on the way the Inhabitants around
Hudson's Bay used to eat grass.
"Such grass," says Settle, "as tho
country produceth, thoy pluck up and
eat, not daintily or salad-wise, hut llko
brute beasts."
Humboldt tells of men living on the
banks of the Orinoco who eat earth.
They knead tho earth Into balls of
from four to six inches In dlnmeter,
and bake them before n slow fire.
"Piazzas."
"Piazzas" 1 havo written through
out, and I insist upon tho name us I
insist upon the thing. It Is not very
clear from what suggestions our fore
fathers, in post-colonial days, devel
oped tho tiling, and It Is not clenr it
nil how they fame to adopt for It an
Italian name, changing the significance
as well as the sound.
In tho Soutli they have always said
"gallery," and here at the North
"pocch" now appears to bo displacing
"piazza." But theso arc rightly the
names of other things, nnd while
there enn, of course, bo no objection
to tho orthodox English "verandn," it
seems a pity to abandon n distinc
tively American nnmo for a distinc
tively American kind of veranda.

of Need
By ALVAH J. GARTH
CCCCCO0CO2GCOCOS0CCOCOK
(, 1920, Western Nevripaper Union)
Morris Davenal stood spellbound
viewing a scene that seemed so lovely,
yet illir.y, that lie almost deemed him
self under a delusion. Ho hud been
camping on the banks of a river, occu
pying a rude board shanty, nnd had
cut across what seemed to be the ex
tensive grounds of a great, gloomy
mansion. At tho edge of a glade a
flitting figure had crossed his range of
vision.
it was nearly midnight, and tho
moonlight tutored down in a silvery
flood and showed a form girlish, full,
of natural grace, and n face tho out
lines of which were perfect. She drow
within tho shadow of n towering elm
treo and stood motionless, her enr bent,
her gaze fixed.
Sho made u gesture of keen disap
pointment ns no one appeared.
Beyond tho treo n man, evidently a
worker about the grounds, suddenly
enmo Into view. Ho hnltcd, applied a
whlstlo to his lips and blew nn echoing
trill. The girl hurried In tho direction
of the houso to bo confronted by a sec
ond mnn. pnst middle age, who regard
ed her with sternness, almost anger.
"You will not be warned 1" Davenal
heard him sny, nnd thcro was tho
venom of menace In his tones.
"Please stand aside," spoke tho gtrl
in Icy tones. "I will return to my
room."
"And stay there, If you aro wise,"
observed tho mnn. "You aro trying to
play mo false. Bo careful you know
tho penalty 1"
Dnvcnnl delivered n deep breath llko
ono seeing an entrancing picture fado
Into nothingness. Tho scene remained
Imprinted on his memory all tho way
to his temporary homo near tho river,
no entered tho dilapidated old shack
"and snt for an hour lost In meditation.
Finnliy he aroused himself and walked
over to a cupboard.
"Again!" he muttered, as Its shelves
came Into view, and the puzzled cxcla
mntlon expressed his wonderment that,
for the second time within twenty
four hours, someone had entered the
place nnd had mnde away with food
In the cupboard.
Davenal threw himself on hiscouch,
but memory 'of the fair girl In the
moonlight remained for a long time.
Ho'ftnnlly slumbered, to rouse up nt
! early daylight as a groan disturbed
I him. It was repented, uiquirently from
' an nttlc overhead. Davenal went to n .
1 corner where cleats were nailed along
the wall, ascended these and glanced
about the confined spnee under tho
roof.
A human form was stretched out
upon n heap of old rags, moving linens
lly, with closed eyes. Davenal fancied
Ibis must be the despollor of his food
supply. lie noticed that one foot of
the Intruder was swathed In a bandage.
He touched Ills arm. Instantly the
other, a young man of presentable ap
pearance, although he looked haggard
and distressed, awoke.
"Who are you?" challenged Davenal.
It was only after persistent question
ing Hint Davenal was able to gain tho
confidence of the stowaway. Ho helped
him below, prepared a nienl and at
tended lo a bad cut on ono foot, tho
result of falling over n keen-edged
scythe.
Finally the stranger told his story.
He was Enrlo Wilton, and his visit to
the vicinity was lo secretly meet his
sister, Adrienne. She was a captive In
the power of an unprincipled guardian,
who hoped to gain her fortune by forc
ing her to marry blm.
"I received a letter 'Concerning the
situation of affairs," Wilton (old Dav
enal, "hut bad to proceed with caution.
Wolfe Dubrow's bold on my sister was
his claim that be bad proof of my com
mitting a forgery of my father's nnmo
before he died. It Is false, but be has
tho power to Imprison me. In sixty
dnys Adrienne will be of ago and can
defy him. "If I were not thus crippled
I could convey her to a afe hiding
place."
"Let nit help you," eagerly pleaded
Davenal, at once divining that Miss
Adrienne Wilton was the fair girl of
tiie moonlight episode.
An hour later, appareled In Ills most
rcommnnplaco nttlre, Davenal strolled
by tho Dubrow place. The man with
tho whistle of the night previous balled
him. Was ho looking for work? Was
ho willing to put In n forenoon's labor
on the lawn for a dollar? and soon
Davennl had located tho room wliich
Miss Wilton occupied and had also
spied a long ladder In the bnrn of the
place.
Then ho went bnck to the river
shack, planned with Earlo Wilton whnt
they should do, made arrangements to
have an automobile on hand after dark,
had Wilton write a noto to his sister,
nnd nt midnight helped the stnrtled
and excited girl cnptlvo down the Ind
dor, hastened to tho shack and they
were miles nwny before daylight.
Davennl accompanied brother nnd
sister to a retired village, suw them -comfortably
settled and left thorn filled
with gratitude for his helpful atten
tion. Twice lib revisited them during
tho noxt two months.
Tho day when Iter coming of ago
released her legally from tho cure of
her guardian, Adrlenno Wilton wroto
Dnvcnal of tho fact and asked his ad
vlco nnd co-operation as to her further
action in regard to hey estate.
Davennl secured n lawyer and the
baflled Wolfo Dubrow was compelled
to relinquish his evil schemes. By that
timo Davennl and Jtdrlenno had be
come something more thnn friends, and
ero tho end ot tho year sho hnd a
lifetime gunrdlun.
