SALVATION ARMY’S
BUDGETPLAN MADE
Ten Individuals Wanted
Who Will Give SIOO
During the Year
MEETING ON THURSDAY
Workers Went Over Proposals For
Campaign, Which Will Be Put
On Next Week To Raise
Budget pf $2,500
•
A tentative plan for raising the $2.-
500 to be sought in the Salvation
Army’s annual budget appeal here
next week was outlined at a meet
ing of workers held yesterday after
noon in the Army's campaign head
quarters, and was given endorsement
by the group. The organization which
is to function in the campaign was
further completed by the naming of
E. M. Rollins, superintendent of the
schools as a vice-chairman for that
group, and he in turn is to enlist the
cooperation of the principals of the
various schools.
The invocation at the meeting yes
terday was by Rev. W. C. Cumming,
pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, and a stirring heart-to-heart
address was given by Rev. I. W.
Hughes, rector of Holy Innocents
Episcopal church, on the usefulness
and place of the Salvation Army in
the life of this Community. He point
ed out its work of_a spiritual nature
and also its efforts in relief.
ItSHgedler easier, of the Charlotte
divisional headquarters, who is direct
ing the campaign here, was to speak
this afternoon at 4:10 o’clock before
ladies of the Episcopal church, before
the Kiwanis club at 6:30 p. m., hnd
to the Red* MeiT at* 8 p. m. !
It was said today that the’work of
organizing the Various divisions Into
teams is proceeding rapidly and is
near completion. J. C. Kittrell, who
will head the campaign, is away for
the week-end at a Kiwanis district
convention in Columbia ,S. C., he be
ing a lieutenant governor of the dis
trict, and was unable for that reason
to attend the meeting Thursday aft
ernoon. But he will be in chaige of
the work all next week.
The tentative plan worked out for
raising the $2,500 budget includes one
group to pledge SIOO each, another
group of ten to give SSO each, another
group of ten for $25 each; 30 to give
$lO each, and 50 to give $5 each. 50
to give 2 each and 100 to give $1
each.
Following is a statement on the
campaign given out today:
“The officers in charge of the local
unit are required to visit each week
eighteen hours. This visiting is not
done among the church-going people
of Henderson. The officers take a
church census and find out those who
are not attending church at all. In
this way the children are influenced
into the Sunday school in the imme
diate vicinity wheie the families live.
Thus the Army is an asset to the
church as well as feeding and sleep
ing the transients and helping those
families who cannot help themselves.
All should be proud of the part they
take in helping to reach and raise
this budget. The work and time you
give to this campaign will pay you
compound interest for all time. Let s
ail help to put it over the top."
