HAS WON PLACE OF HONOR Salvation Army's Work for Fifty-Foul Years Recognised aa Worthy of ths Highest Praise. Except for the war Die BaJvpOoB Army would hate OfsrsMa its) ftfrbitB birthday four years ago, but there could hardly have been a better re minder of what the army hod done and become In a half century than the recent award of the Victoria Cross to three Salvation Army soldiers for their servlco In France. Fifty-four years ago things were very different; the 111 .st appearances of tho Salvationists aroused opposition, rowdies tried to break up the meetings, and on nt least one occasion members of the future unity were arrested In Kugland ns "disturbers of the pence." Originally simply on attempt to tnnhe converts by outdoor preaching, the movement which William Ilooth started In .Tuly. 1SH.1, was put on a nillltury linsls and became the Salvation Army in 1H7S, since which time It hns grown from 75 corps In Knglaud to about O.IHIO corps nnd outimsts In more thnn 00 countries'. The army was officially recognised by King Edwurd VII when he received the founder nt Ilucklug hnm pnliice In HUM; a different yet re markable "olllclal recognition" oc curred quite recently when n tableau honoring the Salvation Army was made tho climax nf the current "Zlegfeld Follies" on llroiidwiiy.

Mlilille-aged Londoners who went to end fro In the capital n the sixties and seventies merely smile whgn we ask If Uindon could possibly lie nois ier than It Is at the present day. For they ny It was a far noisier place then, when nearly all the main streets were granite paved nnd all the wheels of the vehicles iron bound. There was a continuous roar then to which the present day sound ta a mere whisper. One such Londoner says he often heard In the old days the roar of Lon don's trnfllc from ns far awny a spot as the Crystal Palace parade.- The sonnd was like that of continual very distant thunder. He has many times In recent jenrs listened for the sound from the same spot, but has never heard It. London Chronicle.
