rosy prospect of -making "a living

an invitation from Commander
Evangeline Booth, to become the
national chairman for the Salva-

funds in 1520. He is already on

"It is a genuine privilege to find
opportunity for encouraging a
work so direct and practical and
so vskorble to the masses of the
people, as the work of the Salva
tion Army "said Mr. Lane at his
o&ce in Washington the other
day. "When Commander Mbs
Booth asked me to take the
responsibilities of national chair
man for the 1920 appeal of that
organization," continued the sec
retary, "the first thought that
flashed across rey mind was how
can I spare time , for such work
when 1 am entering upon a
commercial task of great respon
sibility, America's Debt to Army.
"And then there flashed across
my mind a vision of the things
the Salvation Army does the help
it gives to men and women and
little children just when and where
they heed it most, and I thought
to myself that after all there could
be no more important thing than
this. So I accepted along with)
the other job, and I an trusting to

I do not believe it, or If I did be-,

Skirts soaked with Grandma are so dean,
that little or no robbing is necessary, even
around the hems.
The secret is that Grandma's is a wonderful
Powdered Soap. Soak your clothes with Grand
ma's. The dirt comes out without boiling
without nibbins. J
- .
When the little soap particles are brought
into contact with the water they are transformed
into .abundant suds which loosens up and
washes away the dirt. No chipping nor slicing
of bar soap necessary.
You cannot, find another soap so economical
to use as Grandma's.
