Salvation Army To Mark Anniversary SEVENTY-SECOND BIRTHDAY OF ORGANIZATION TO BE FETED NEXT WEEK CHICAGO, 111., June 30—The Salvation Army, international organization which grew out of William Booth’s concern for the povertystricken inhabitants of London’s East End slum district, will celebrate the 72nd anniversary of its founding on Monday, July 5. In the Middle West the principal observance will be held at Camp Lake. Wisconsin, where the Salvation Army leaders of the area are assembled to hear the concert which will conclude the third annual music camp, held under the auspices of the Young People's department of the Central State Territory. Commissioner W. A. McIntyre, commander of the territory, will briefly review the Army’s history since that July 5 .in 1865, when William Booth opened the "Christian Mission’’ Bandmaster Henry Merrit of Winnipeg Canada, will direct the 300 young musicians, who will have just completed their two week's music camp training, in the anniversary conceit. Also in observance of the 72nd anniversary, the Salvation Army choristers of Chicago will broadcast st 9 o'clock (Central Standard Time) Saturday morning over WLS. Their program will include many of the hymn that were favorites of General Booth. William Booth, founder and father of the present commander, General Evangeline Booth, was born in Nottingham, England, on April 10, 1829. He attended Wesley chapel during his childhood and became a boy preacher in the streets, often inciting the displeasures of the church officials because he brought a rabble of slum youths to the services. He was ordained in 1854 and in 1855 he married Catherine Mumford, one of the first women ever to preach in London. His disagreements with the church officials over his activities in the slum area continued after ordination, and, after about t^n years William Booth resigned from the church. He then determined to devote aU his efforts to helping these poor people and so opened the mission and began preaching to the degraded in the streets. The Army was named during the Christmas season of 1877, when Bramwell Booth, a son of William, wrote "We are a volunteer army’’ when he was preparing a report. His father substituted "Salvation” for "Volunteer^ and decided upon the military form of organization. The uniform was adopted two years later. The Army came to America in 1879, when a family of Salvationists by the name of Shirley moved to Philadelphia. The first contingent of officers arrived in New York in March, 1880. Since that time, the Army has expanded into 90 counttries and colonies and its membership numbers into tfiF ^J'Vlreds or thousands. MUSSEL FISHERMEN SWING INTO ACTION IN INDIANA Indiana’s open season for the taking of mussels from the river and streams began today with provisions of the revised laws to be strictly enforced. Due to an error in the printing of the 1937 Acts of the General Assembly, which gave June 14, instead of July 1, as the operating date, there was some confusion as to th" correct date. This year all dealers in mussel shells as persons taking them from state waters, must secure a license from the Division of Fish and Game. In the past only the person talcing the mussels was required to have a license. Another provision of the now law prohibits the taking of any mussel shell less than two inches in diameter. Between two and three thousand licenses for taking and handling mussel shells will be issued this year, officials anticipate. Practically all shell taken in Indiana is used in making buttons.
