The future historian of the nine teenth and twentieth centnries, will find a most interesting theme in its rise and develop ment from a London slum to its present world wide and influen tial status. We can remember w hen it first began to get into the lime light in England, and the ridicule it then encountered, an experience repeated over here. Hut it has w'on its way through sheer proving of its val ue and merit. Its position in philanthropic endeavor is unique. No other organization exactly competes with it, unless it be in a small way, its own offspring the Volunteers of .America. On ly recently in Portland, a man and his wife met a girl on the street in an apparently drunken condition. They acted the Good Samaritans towards her and took her home. Then they telephoned different organizations but none would receive her as she* was in toxicated. The police s t a t i o n could not unless as a prisoner held for trial. Finally the Sal vation Army was appealed to, which took her in and ministered to her both in body and soul. Rut what has proved the cli max in winning the public ap proval and support has been its war work in ministering to the , comfort of the soldiers. In one of the humorous journals lately, was a picture of two dougboys enjoying fresh doughnuts on the fi *ing line, supplied by the Sal vation lassies. One said to the other, “ Do you remember, Hill, how we used to jeer at the Sal vation Army and break up its meetings?” The other replied soul fully, “ I do, but NEVER again. ” Serving doughnuts, pit's and hot coffee to the boys at the front, may not be so very much in itself, hut it was as the culmi nation of a long list of good deeds it became so effective. There is no doubt that every dollar given to it, is made to do double duty in the relief of dis t r e s s and the salvaging of human derelicts. The aviation tragedy which cast a gloom over the Rose Festi val Friday, was evidently due to rashness in taking chances. The exhilaration due to rivalry and the presence of great crowds of applaudimr spectators, produces a sort of intoxication, which im- pells men to attempt that which in calmer moments they would not think of doing. Rim o’ The World Hill Climb ing Record Made on Red Crown When Charles Hasle a few days ago drove his Peerless Eight over the famous Rim O’ the World hiil climbing course in record time he was using Red Crown Gasoline. C. S. Stone, in his Essex who was second, al so had Red Crown in his tank. Unquestionably this course, which covers eight miles of grade ranging from five to eigh teen percent through the W ater-! man Canyon near San Bernar dino, is one of the severest tests 1 motor fuel can have anyw’here in the country. There is hardly a straight stretch of road in the whole distance and the inumera- •ble sharp curves and twists, I combined with the grade, pre-i sent difficulties which can only be overcome by a car using the best quality of gasoline. This Rim O’ the World Hill Climbing Contest is one of the few stock car events regularly1 held in California. That the) two winning cars should both have use*! Red Crown is a trib ute to the quality and steady power that it possesses in every day use. ■■■ ................................. — .............- Thursday, June 19, 1 9 1 9 T U E S D A Y S are our days for— F R U IT S CT N D V E G E T A B L E S This week we had— * Cantalopes, Cucumbers, Tomatoes and Apricots • • If you don’t get berries this week, for canning you’ll not get them at all.
