800 WOMEN NEEDED
BY SALVATION ARMY
Commander Evangeline Booth
8ays War Relief W&fc
Must Be Extended.
Commander Evangeline Booth, leafi­
er of the Salvation Army in the Unit­
ed States, has been suddenly called
upon to furnish 800 additional war
work women for France. The request
la contained In a report just received
by her from Col. William A. Barker
of the Salvationist forces, whom she
sent to France over a year ago to es­
tablish hutment and general war relief
work with the American troops.
"We will do all wc can to fill this
demand," said Commander Booth when
discussing the approaching United
War Work Campaign, "and the need
Itself should impress the American
public all the more with the absolute
necessity for sustaining and enlarging
the war relief work of the seven or
ganlzations, besides the noble Red
Cross, now merged for a drive for
funds. Each is a vital cog in a vast
machine for human relief, and each Is I
Indispenslbie, serving its particular
elements In its own way.
"The Salvation Army was born In
hardship, reared in privation and
trained to every phase of human mis- S
ery and how to cope with it. Perhaps
that accounts in some degree for the
success our work has attained and for'
which we are thankful.
"We are of the common people, and
we toll on a practical basis. We learn
ed the lesson of how to do It in the
Boer war, when we stood at the side
of Britain's troops and weathered it
out to the end. We have heen tried
by Are, nnd the mothers and fathers
of America, as In other countries, trust
the Salvation Army to do the thing
they would like to do for their men If
they but had the chance.
"With 1,210 trained workers at the
front, operating from 420 huts and
dugouts, the Salvation Army is doing,
has done and will continue to do its
best for the cause of humanity and
Liberty."

Community Service Takes Place
of Mother, Friends and
Home for Soldiers.
Ten young officers of tlie Student
Army Training Corps of the Universi­
ty of Detroit recently applied for a
furnished housb and a housekeeper
who would not be a servant, but, as
one. young officer expressed it, "the
sort of woman to whom the boys can
call out Hello, mother!' when they
come in the front door."
Homesickness Is the malady for
which War Camp Community Service
supplies innumerable cures.
"We've got your number," snys the
W. C. C. S. to tlie homesick boy from
camp with leisure to spend In any one
of the three hundred towns scattered
over the country. While he's wonder-:
lng what'on earth he'll do with him
•elf when he gets there, not knowing a
soul in town and with a limited per
centage of his "thirty per" in his pock-,
et, along comes a friendly printed card
from the local branch of his own lodge
announcing a reception that night es­
pecially "for soldier members. By the
same mail the Methodist church sends
an announcement of all its meetings,
addressed to him, with This Means
You printed at the bottom. How did
they know he was a Methodist?
He bad forgotten about the little
"Personal Card" he made out at the
adjutant's request during his first day
In camp when It was only one of .the
endless details in the round of dentists
and doctors and general confusion.
The W. C. C. S. had not only his num­
ber, but his name and address, his
home town, thfe name ,of the school
he'd gone to and a good bit about the
things he was fondest of doing—each
fact written into a little blank on tks
cud «spoclaH|f for It.
We are giving our work, our unit
and our monqy. but "they" are giviiu

58 JEWISH WORKERS
GOING "OVER THERE"
CoL Baiter Bids Godspeed to
the Graduates of Train­
ing SohooL
The whole-souled co-operation be­
tween the seven great organisations
working for the happiness and welfare
of our soldiers and sailors wss re­
cently Illustrated at the graduation
exercises of the tenth class of the
Jewish Welfare Board's Training
School In New York. Col. William 8.
Barker, who went to France represent*
Ing the Salvation Array with the first
contingent of our troops and has been
"over there" fifteen months, was the
principal speaker and wished the fifty
eight Jewish workers of tne class God­
speed, while Louis Marshall, the promt*
nent Jewish Attorney and philanthro­
pist of New York, lauded the work of
the Salvation Army among the boys
at the front
"What our fighting boys need Is In­
spiration and heart and character In
those who are there to help them,"
declared Col. Barker. "You will rep­
resent In the camps and overseas the
Ideals and standards of the Jewish
faith, and It is up to you above all
things to be consistent In your re­
ligious practices. Practice what you
preach. That, I am sure, has been
the secret of our own success. If yon
live up to the principles of your faith
and give what you have to give from a
heart big with love, the boys will re­
spect you, whether they be Protestant,
Catholic or Jew."
The n|wly graduated field workers
will make a total of 260 men doing
field work In our camps and naval
training stations under the auspices
of the Jewish Welfare Board. The
Board has about fifty "huts" In the
various camps and maintains centers
In all large cities where soldiers and
sailors of all faiths are welcomed. A
headquarters has recently been estab­
lished in Paris, and 100 men are being
recruited here for overseas work.
There are now nearly 125,000 Jews
serving in the army and navy.

nice man, has beer, seriously ill with
