FOR HUMAN SALVAGE
This week a drive is being
made for funds to carry on the
work of the Salvation Army.
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.
