SALVATION ARMY. HOME SERVICE FUND

Hon. Charles G. Spitler, Rensselaer, has been appointed chairman of Jasper county for the Salvation Army Home Service campaign, May 1926, and is actively at work organizing his forces for the drive. J. M. Sauser has been chosen secretary and J. N. Leatherman, treasurer. The publicity Will be in charge of George A. Williams, who will also conduct the Speakers’ Bureau, and look" after transportation. Jasper county has been organized as one unit and the work of canvassing for contributions will be in charge of teams. Chairman Spitler reports unusual interest in the campaign and all county workers predict a prompt response to the appeal for funds. The soldiers who saw service abroad are solidly behind the Salvation Army workers and dozens of them in Jasper county have volunteered their aid in putting the campaign over. No war workers overseas were closer to the men in service than the Salvation Army Lassies, and the boys who have returned are showing their eagerness to express their gratitude in a substantial way. $13,000,000 is needed for the Salvation Army’s work this year and Indiana’s part is $450,000.
