O'NEIL E Just what way the Salvution Army ; can work more effectively in helping 1 to eliminate, or to take care ot cer- : tain social happenings and conditions, and how the country may use tho Ar my's trained organization and institu tional facilities, will be determined by a Salvation Army Advisory Hoard formed here in I'rlnevlllo March 1, 1920. These men see In the Sulvation Ar my Home Service Program for 1920, an opportunity to obtain social ser vice, more closely approximating that given by the Army for many years in the larger cities. The board was organized at a meet ing held In Juy H. Upton's offices. After the plan had been explained by Elmer S. Turner, field representative for the Salvation Army, and thor oughly discussed by those present, Jay H. Upton waB chosen chairman of the board and Robert Douglas vice chairman. A. W. Battles was chosen secretary. Other members of the board are Judge N. U. Wallace, Geo. P. Keanies, Mayor li. K. Stewart, J. E. Myers, Mrs. Wilda iielknap, W. I'. Hursuoy, C. W. Elklns, Hugh Lakin, Harold liuldwin, Geo. Euiston, Mrs. C. S. Ed wards. Other members will be selected by the board from tho surrounding coun try. , The first duty of the board will be to make a study of social conditions in Pr'neville and Crook county on the following subjects; Poverty, unem ployment, juvenile delinquencies and illigitiniacy and muke a report to the State Army Headquarters, in this way the Army will know how they can best help. The findings of the hoard will he strictly confidential and used only to guide the' Salvation Army officers in determining their action in this county. It is not anticipated that social con ditions will be found worse in this county than in any of the others, but the board believes the study will be of great value in revealing opportun ities for work by the Army hi fields not now covered by any existing char itable or religious organization. The board will constitute the l'nk through which Crook County may call upon tlie Salvation Army for as sistance, for its girls who may be in trouble, poverty, etc., at any time, while the Army In turn through its report on the local situation will be able to make Its work ore efficient.
