The Wrong Disease.

THE EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, IND.

HALF-MILLION SPENT BY SALVATION ARMY

IMPROVEMENT OF INSTITUTIONS IN INDIANA AND MICHIGAN SHOWN IN PROVINCIAL REPORT. ' HAD TO MORTGAGE PROPERTY Indianapolis. — (Special.) — Bocause the skimpy contributions that used to be cast into the tambourine of the Salvation Army workers were too small to meet the burdens undertaken and kept up in the regular Work of the army the organization had to mortgage its buildings and institutions in order to meet its expenses. This fact has just been made known here through a report by the provincial offlcw of the Indiana and Michigan province, Lieut-Col. Albert E. Kimbal.. The announcement was made at the headquarters of the Salvation Army Home Service Appeal, which is carrying on an enrollment of the friends of the Salvation Army In Indiana from May 1# to 20. The enrollment Is being made to provide support for the army In this state the coming year. A Nearly half a million dollars will have been spent by the army in the province composed of Indiana and Michigan during the twelve months ending May 31. Of this amount >3OB, 192 had been spent on January 31 last and there remained a reserve of >166,009 to be expended between then and the end of May, making a total for the year of 3474,101. In the liquidation of mortgages on the property of the army >38,560 was expended, For the purchase and erection of new buildings to accommodate the greatly increased work of the organisation >37,200 was used. The debt which presented the big handicap to the organisation in this province as well as In practically all others, was one which, had grown out of a long period of sacrifice, charity freely given and insufficient support. The necessary financial aid was not forthcoming to the army, although it has been common custom for years to send all applicants for public aid to the Salvation Army’s local headquarters. With the* contributions insufficient but unwilling to curtail Its work or permit a single case of need to go unaided the organisation mortgaged its property in order to raise funds to keep the good work going on. This circumstance has now been changed by a naw plan of support which gives every good-fellow a chance to do something to zard aiding the destitute and the unfortunate. Through the Home Service Appeal every friend of humanity and every admirer of the Salvation Army will be enrolled for an annual offering to keep up the work of salvation and make It unnecessary for the army to have to mortgage its buildings again. *

Kconomy is the road to wealth. It also helps keeping up with taxation. No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourself.—Emerson. Imitate the rubber ball. The harder it is thrown down the higher It rises. Some men waste a lot of time try* lag to convince others that they are truthful. If there is to be much brotherly love, one has to make himself deserving of it. A girl never forgets the first kiss cl e gets after reaching the age where kisses count. •■ ’ — One has to be able to reason somewhat in order to know when he is unreasonable. A father gets some of Ms boy’s company if the boy has to come to him. for pocket money. A doctor who tells you your symptoms before you can tell them wins your ettiral faith. Don’t have too many opinions. They are a frequent source of oppreasion of ethers. ■ ■■■ »-l I .1 7 < . Job printing at the Republican

CHINESE 'GODDESS OF MERCY'

Legend Popular in the Yellow Land Because It llluetratee Quality of Filial Piety. The Chinese tell an interesting story relating to their “Goddess of Mercy,” who was the third daughter of the king Mias Tsong. Her two elder sisters were married early, and when her turn came the third refused to marry, having, already given Up the temporal pleasures and devoted her entire devotion to preparation for the next life. The king then sent his daughter to the temple, where she was asked to draw water and cook dinner for 500 monks. But this seemed to be an easy task, for when she went to <?ook, she found everything ready for her, a dragon being sent from heaven to help her. The king was angered and ordered the temple to be burned but the princess spat blood into, heaven and a new temple fell down to earth. This angered the king still more and he ordered his daughter killed and that her body be eaten by the tigers. As time went on, the king was afflicted with leprosy, none of the doctors being able to cure him. A beggar monk later came and told the king he could cure him. Upon being given a trial the' monk said that the disease could only be cured by the ash of the burned hand and eye of a person, who was on a certain mountain. When the desired hand and eye was finally found, the queen recognized them as her daughter’s. The king was cured by the, ashes of this hand and eye, which made the people honor the e name of the princess as the “Goddess of Mercy,” for her untold sufferings and her filial piety to her cruel father.

HAVE RULES AND OBEY THEM

System That Will Do Away With a Tremendous Number of Avoidable Acidents. It is economical to have rules, and It is economy to obey them. A tremendous number of accidents result from the breaking of rules. Sometimes the rules are not laws, laid down in black and white and enforced by law, but they are rules, just the same. Many motor accidents come because of speeding, driving on the wrong side of the road, disobeying traffic regulations in the city streets. Many accidents by pedestrians occur because they don’t stay on the sidewalks and when they must cross the streets they don't do so at the crossings. Many fires start because cans of gasoline are stored In the linen closet, when we know it should not, according to the terms of our lease, be bought in large quantities, or kerosene is used carelessly about a fire, in spite of cautions from the fire department So it goes. Many of the ills of mankind result from a disobeying of rules. This attitude in adults is much like disobedience in ‘children—and the results are much the same, for punishment in some form is very likely to come.

Weather-Lore Not All Fake.

I The vagaries of the mythical "weather clerk” are not. In the opinion of D. W. Homer, writing in Meteorology, so undependable as is generally supposed. He maintains that the following rules are founded on facts although he withholds the main fact to which part of the .world do they apply: “If rain commences before daylight, it. will hold up before 8 a. m.[ if It begins about noon, it will con-» tinue through the afternoon; if St commences after 9 p. it will rain the next day; If it clears off in the night it will rain the next day; If the wind is from the northwest or southwest, the storm will be short; If from the northeast, it will be a hard one; If from the northwest, a cold one, and from the southwest, a warm one. If It ceases after 12 m M It will rain next day; if IFceases before 12 m., it will be clear next day. If it begins about 5 p. m., it will rain through the night If raining between 8 and 9 a. m., it will go on till noon, and if not then ceasing will go on till evening.”

NOME SERVICE HELPS ARMY TO SAVE HOURS

NEW METHOD OF FINANCING WELFARE WORK ENABLES SALVATIONISTS TO USE ENERGIES ELSEWHERE. — r— —Mb ■——S r — —J I MONEY RAISED IN TEN DAYS Indianapolis. — (Special) — During the last year more than 5,750,000 hours were 'salvaged by the Salvation Anny in the United States and put into profitable use. The organization which for so long has been saving health, life, materials and* souls has added to its list of conservation exploits the saving of nearly 16,000 hours a day. All of which are being used for the relief of suffering and the spreading of happiness and comfort among the crippled, the sick .and the penniless. This conservation of time and the resultant increased efficiency in the work of the Salvationists among the poor and needy was made possible through the inauguration of the plan of financing the Salvation Army through the annual Home Service Appeals. The 1920 appeal for the Salvation Army in Indiana is now in progiess and workers are In the field in nearly every county in the state raising Indiana’s quota of >452,000. Formerly the Salvation Army workers, especially the women and girls were required to spend the greater part of their time passing the tambourines in public places and appealing for contributions to keep the Army going. Today this wasteful system has been relegated and the money for the entire year’s program Is raised in the ten-day appeal, with ministers, business men, club women, members of the American Legion and others volunteering to do the work. Thus the Salvationists are enabled to devote their energies to their relief work.
