Army has put up a brave fight against
sin in this city and while the com
pany has been small in numbers and
they have often been the subjects of
ridicule, their Christian zeal has al
ways been sufficient to keep the flag
flying in spite of adversities. Should
the company disband there are many
local people who would regret the
fact for the army has unquestionably
done much good In The city
