and little-known facts concerning William Booth, Salvation Army

Founder

W ILLIAM Booth had no time to spare for the merely social call.

While travelling in Scotland he was visited by Princess Louise and her husband, the Duke of Argyle, who were occupying the next compart- ment in the train. They talked with the Gcncral in a most sympathetic and happy spirit for half of the journey, pressing him at the last to spcnd time with them a t their castle, one of their summer residences. I could see that hc enjoyed the friend- ly conversation, as they enjoyed his pungent comments, but he never found time to accept the kindly in- vitation.

On the other hand, if there were any prospect of furthering his schemes for the poor, he would make time to see the individual concerned.

A popular novelist of those days was Marie Corelli, who wrote The Mightg Atom, The Sorrow of Satan, and many other novels. The Foun- dcr had some idea of enlisting her pen to help forward his work. When visiting Stratford-on-Avon to con- duct a public meeting he was in- vited to her home for afternoon tca.

High Privilege It was a high privilege to sit

around the table in this fnscinat- ingly-adorned home, and listen to those two extraordinary personal- ities discuss political and spiritual questions of the day. Finding his hostess intercsted in the Army, the General secured a promise from her to write for and about it when there was opportunity. He remarked afterwards that he found her far more free, friendly and gossipy than he had expected.

As was usual on such occasions, his attractive pcrsonality, sincerity, and forthrightness charmed the novelist, and her parting word to mc as we bade her goodbye was, 'Take cart? of the General, and don't let him work loo hard!" Both Marie Corelli and a fricnd who lived with

her attended the evening meeting, which, it seemed to me, they greatly enjoyed.

To persuade William Booth to take a holiday was well-nigh im- possible, though someone was al- ways trying. In the city of Liver- pool lived a wealthy maiden lady who was keenly interested in the work of The Salvation Army, and who became one of its most gener- ous supporters. The General visited her delightful home whenever pos- sible to talk to her about his pet schemes, as a result of which he anticipated receiving substantial do- nations to assist them. In this he was not disappointed. But, con- cerned because she felt the General was working far too hard, this lady said to him on one occasion, "Gen- eral, if only you will take a holiday" -he had said he had not taken a

singing of well-known Army chor- uses and testimonies from the grandchildren.

There was, too, some free and happy conversation between the items, but all the while the old gen- tleman was itching to get back to work. While one of the grandchil- dren was singing, this inveterate toiler suddenly emerged from the study and came to my office, saying, "Smith, I wish we could get on with our work!"

Work was for him an obsession, and it is perfectly true that he did

He often bad a whimsical word for newspaper reporters, and some- times even a particular prayer for them. Leaning over the platform rail during a meeting, and fixing his gaze on the table devoted to the press, he would implore a blessing on those "who always arrive late, leave early, and never give any- thing to the collection".

Great Prisons Seldom was he at a loss for a

Well do I recollect the General repeating to me what she had said, and how whimsically he observed, "Smith, I'm not taking any holiday, but I'm after that five thousand pounds all the same," He got it, too, and more besides!

Indeed, he begrudged even an hour away from his work. Once he was persuaded to have a party for the beneflt of his grandchildren, for whom he reluctantly spared an hour or two of his precious time,

Commissioner and Mrs. Booth- Tucker, I remember, and the Chief, as he was known, and Mrs. Bram- well Booth, with several of their children, gathered in the Founder's study, What a party that was! There were no games, Christmas packets or buinpor packages, but the

of humour if they are to face up to all the demands made upon them. Fortunately, this was a character- istic of William Booth, and numer- ous were the occasions when he en- joyed a little fun, even when at his own expense.

Once in a Berlin hotel, when mak- ing preparation for his bath, I set the hot and cold water taps running at a level to produce approximately the right heat, and left the room to And towels and soap. Returning shortly afterwards and entering the General's bedroom, I found him still fully dressed, but drenched with water from head to foot. His white hair was clinging about his face and water was running off his beard as he exclaimed in great amusement, "Smith I've done a fine thing".

"What happened, General?" I asked, with some concern.

He laughed heartily as he ex- plained that he had gone into the bathroom and, his sight being dim, had been unable to read the names on the three taps, and by mistake

As the General was about to say goodbye, Mr. Churchill humorously remarked, "Well, General, am I con- verted now?" Whereupon the Gen- eral retorted, "Oh no; I wouldn't say you're converted, but I think you're convicted!"

In my diary for Monday, Septem- ber 26, 1910, it is recorded that we motored to Weymouth in a beauti- ful car, kindly put at the General's disposal by our host, Mr. J. J. Allen, with whom we had billeted for the weekend at Bournemouth, a south of England holiday resort.

After a brief rest we proceeded to Portland Prison. Here a meeting was held with 700 long-term pris- oners. What a sight it was! They sat before us in the prison chapel- their hair was cropped short, they wore khaki clothes branded with the broad arrow and dusty with work in thc stone quarries.

OUR REBEL

Sometimes our emotions, which should be the driving forces of our personality, become disordered rebels threatening to overthrow the authority of the central self. The following comments make a brief and necessarily limited attempt to relate the Christian faith to these

personality problems.

HATE - THE DEPRIVED CHILD 0 NE of the most disturbing experiences is to discover within ourselves

a growing antagonism toward another person. We may not consent to these feelings or express them in open hostility, but we are impotent to banish them. What should we do in such circumstances?

We must remember that on an impersonal level these emotions have down the street and see people walking about aimlessly, and shops, and positive uses. When Abraham Lincoln a f imed about the slave trade, "If cars, and a few dogs, and it all seems to nlean nothing and to nlatter not ever I get a chance to hit this thing 1'11 hit it hard," he was mobilizing at all." Yet Donald Baillie kept a Strong faith in God. his antagonism for effective action. Our capacity for this kind of reaction Most people experience milder forms of depression which have a variety is a valuable part of our personalities. NO a small boy, whose of Causes. Sometimes aggression, which We f ~ a r to express outwardly, lnother habitually called him "little lamb", retorted, u ~ ~ ~ y t call me lamb*, turns inward against ourselves.

We must recognize the roots of irrational hatred in childhood to forgive ourselves. Self-hate is a poor return to make in response to experience. Every mother knows how violent and aggressive a baby can God's pardon, and will effectively prevent the gospel from producing the become when it is not receiving the sustenance and attention i t needs. fruit joy in Our lives. ~ i d d ~ ~ within every adult this little child lives on, making his presence People liable to low moods should try to base their spiritual life upon felt from time to time. H~~~~~ is often the reaction of the deprived child the unwavering assertion that their feelings in no way affect God's love within us who feels unloved or insufficiently loved. for them.

Our urgent need is to grow up emotionally, to leave behind the angry Let me no ?nore my comfort draw baby with its claims to be always pampered. Unfortunately, we cannot do From my frail Jzold of Thee:

Our faith can help us immensely here with its reiterated assurance that God loves us perfectly and unconditionally. Within that love we shall be helped to grow to maturity. RESENTMENT - THE OPEN WOUND

a Dr. W. L. Northridge writes of a woman whose fiancbe was tragically

JEALOUSY - THE IMPOVERISHED SELF Jealousy has been described as self-inflicted torture. Few emotions

cause such acute mental pain or arc so difficult to handle. We should be able to delight in the gifts and graces of other people.

In the jealous person this awareness of other people's excellence has turned sour. Those with this problem should talk it over with a wise Christian friend or counsellor. Although costly, in terms of personal pride, this can help toward liberation.

The basic problem of the jealous person is that deep down he cannot appreciate his own worth. To him, his own personality seems insipid and his own gifts mediocre beside more colourful and talented people. Having thoroughly devalued himself he becomes resentful at the gulf which he imagines exists between him and his associates. Unfortunately this devalu- ation can be an unconscious process. Then much of his conscious energies will be spent trying, unsuccessfully, to reverse this unfavourable verdict.

This failure properly to appreciate ourselves arises when we aim a t wrong standards, or compare ourselves with other people or some ideal figure. Our Christian duty is to be our best selves, not to ape others, no matter how capable, gifted or even saintly they may be. The tragedy of trying to emulate others is that we become blind to our own special worth and fail to develop our own unique personalities. Created by God, re- deemed by the precious Blood of Christ, indwelt by His Spirit, what further assurance do we need of our great worth?

killed. The couple had-been engaged for ten years and had long delayed their marriages because of objections by the man's parents. The woman's hopes of marriage were dashed as she was now past the age when a love affair would normally develop.

She becnme filled with bitter resentment so intense that it gradually expressed itself in physical disability. No one could blame her for finding it hard to forgive, but the story dramatically illustrates the price which resentment can exact from us. How discerning was Abraham Lincoln when, referring to resentment, he said, "Perhaps I have too little of it; but 1 never thought it paid." I t never does-but how can we get rid sf it?

As we have noted with other "rebel emotions", it helps to understand how they arise. Much resentment is out of all proportion to the situation which provokes it and depends for its strength on reviving buried emotions. For instance, unreasonable resentment of authority may derive from op- pressive training in childhood. We cnn help ourselves by asking, "Why am I so vulnerable in this situation or in the presence of this person? What old wounds are being reopened?"

However remote or recent the wounds, only the healing love of God can restore our spiritual health. This means seeing how much w e too need God's forgiveness and how freely God bestows it. If we can take our resentments to the foot of the Cross, and learn there to pray for those we find it hard to love, we will share the victory of our Master.

Has Old-Style Vigour Gone? FOLLOWING a recent radio broadcast, which featured selections

by the songster brlgade and band of a Salvation Army city corps in Canada, a correspondent wrote to "The War Cry" expressing surprise, stating that they did not think that "the Army had music like fhat". The letter inferred that the writer's idea was that Army singing i s mostly blustering, hearty ond even raucous at times. The polished vocal renditions of a deeply-devotional character, as well as the band's soulful renditions fail upon the listener's ears with surprise and pleasure.

The writer inquires whether the old-style vocal vigour of the Army is a thing of the past. Has there been a change? No! The Army still believes in making L'a joyful noise unto the Lord". Hearti- ness i s a sign of an enthusiastic love and a confldent faith.

Salvationists find natural expression in music of an exultant, devil-defying character in which, on occasion, drum and tambourine and the clapping of hands can flnd a place.

Poems written to secular tunes culled from all corners of the music world, including the opera, the music-hall, folk and natlonal airs, as well as some of the best-known hymns of praise, to say nothing of complete original songs composed by Salvationists them- selves - all are used to convey this ioy. The Salvationist does not like a melancholy religion; he knows how to sing good hymns with roof-lifting fervour. They have a tonic effect upon his own spirit, attract others and give vent to emotions which could flnd less worthy channels.

But the Army would never have continued long as a movement had not its soldiers met together for quiet worship, prayer, self- examination and the hearing of God's word. For such occasions the Army has its devotional music. The Salvation Army probably uses more hymns and choruses during its prayer seasons than does any other church or religious organization. Preparation for corporate prayer i s often made by the singing of a devotional verse or chorus, usually a well-known one which can be sung with eyes closed so that the singer can more easily think the words as he sings them. Most acts of consecration, dedication, or worship are accompanied by songs which help the Salvationist to express the feelings of his soul.

Salvationists are not afraid of the word "aesthetic". They be- Ifeve, as Martin Luther said, that "music i s one of the most delightful gifts God has given us", and almost any centre (corps) of reasonable size produces its songster brigade (choir) which, while it keeps be- fore it the true purpose of Salvation Army singing, reaches out toward the highest form of performance in choral work,

"The Utmost for fhe Highest" is the slogan which encourages all Salvationists to take opportunities of improving themselves, not least in the musical realm, where talents can be consecrated to the glory of God for use in Salvation Army and personal worship.

one: one in purpose, plan and per- formance.

There used to be a freak, double- headed turtle in the New York Zoo. It was amusing, yet somehow pa- thetic, to see this poor creature fighting against itself, one set of teeth snapping at the other; one brain telling the legs to move in one direction and the other mental processes cancelling the order and trying to get the body moving in the opposite way.

A rather doleful man watching the spectacle one day was heard to remark, "What an illustration of married life!" Then the turtle slipped off the side of the pool into the water and was immediately a transformed creature. There was no longer the lack of cohesion and con- flict of wills, but a perfect co- ordination of movement and direc- tion.

TRUE ELEMENT What had happened? The turtle's

true element was water and there it was really at home. The man disappointed with his marriage should have learned the obvious lesson-that the right element for a happy marriage is the atmosphere of prayer and worship. It is then that one plus one becomes one!

Not so long ago I saw a workman take two pieces of metal and, using welding equipment, fuse them into one long piece--truly two equalled one! The trouble with so many mar- riages today is that sexual love, instead of the fire of the Holy Spirit, is the welding element!

It is strange how the experiences of childhood remain with one throughout life. In this category for me is the remembrance of a chorus which my mother often used

to sing whilst at her household tasks:

Jesus with me is united, Doubtings and fears @re all gone,

With Him now my soul is de- lighted,

For I and King Jews are one. I remember how I rather ridiculed the logic, especially of the last line, and I was therefore interested to see in the last edition of the Army song book that this line (the chorus of song 502) is now rendered: "Jesus and I are at one". I rather think Herbert Booth was emphasizing the truth that we are to be one with Christ, which is stronger than being at one with Him.

Are you having difficulty in mak- ing the sum of your life come out right? There is something that does not add up? Are you all "at sixes and sevens"? Surely the application of the principle behind the seeming "foolish" equation will bring about a transformation.

Jesus said, "Abide in Me and I in you"; it is then the addition begins. Let the One be added to your one and the result will be a new O N E a competent and complete person1 As Paul says, "I live) yet not I, but Christ liveth in me."

The equation does work out.

to ride in the back with the coffin. When we arrived a t the cemetery,

we stopped just inside the gates and there, lined up, was a row of hand carts. The thing to do is to put your own coffin into one of these carts, then go to the ofice for a man who will pull the barrow to the plot you have previously arranged for.

Some folks arrive at the cemetery without having bought a plot and have to stand for hours with their coffin while papers are filled in, then proceed to the grave-side and wait until the grave is dug. Even when the plot is arranged for beforehand, occasionally they still must stand at the grave-side while the excava- tion is made.

Smashed Up Having procured a cart, we pro-

ceeded to the plot which was at the very opposite end of the cemetery, a twenty-minute walk, When we arrived, the grave was what i s called a repossessed one. That is, the person whose child had been buried there, only three years ago, had not been able to pay for the plot so they had simply dug up the coffin and there it was, smashed up with bones and all, scattered round the grave with the earth.

There was no time for a service, as the attendant promptly picked up the coffin and, carrying it under his arm, proceeded to the graveside and practically dumped it in, only to And the hole was not quite long enough, so he took it out again. We all stood around while another man made the whole a little longer.

Then, in again went the little cofiin, and after the relatives and friends had had time to throw a handful of earth on it, the other man promptly filled it with earth, pushing some of the people back to make room for his shovel.

Watching these poor folk having

to bury their loved ones in such a manner really moved my heart for them. Another officer told me that in Antofagasta in the north of Chile he has walked to the cemetery carrying the comn and helped dig the grave, as there were no diggers. In that same city, many of the poor folk just go out into the sand hills, with which the city is surrounded, and bury their dead there.

In life these people are constantly harried by multitudinous problems. In death they are hurried uncere- moniously to a grave in which they may have only three to four years to rest before their bones are scat- tered to make way for another. For many of them the only hope worth having is the one beyond the grave, for this life certainly offers them nothing of consequence. God grant that we may be the means of bring- ing them to Christ.

AID FOR JAPANESE CRASH WORKERS

T" ENTY-FOUR Salvation Army workers from six centres in the

Ardmore area of Oklahoma worked throughout the night serving some 350 meals to military, civil defence and civilian rescue personnel in the all-night search for victims of an air crash.

There were few survivors among the ninety-two persons aboard the ill-fated American Flyers turbo-jet Electra as i t crashed near Ardmore. At the identification centre there were three Salvation Army mobile canteens on duty. Major George Marshall, t h e Divisional Com- mander, directed the Army's work.

Trade and Commerce, Commissioner E. Grinsted, Brigadier A. Pitcher and Colonel C. Knaap (R.) were in- vited to attend a luncheon and a press conference publicizing Expo- 67. which had a national hook-up from coast to coast, at the Park Plaza Hotel, Toronto.

The Salvation Army rcpresenta- tives were warmly received, and Brigadier Pitcher, Divisional Com- mander for Quebec and Eastern Ontario, whose headquarters i s in Montreal, read the following state- ment:

The Salvation Amy's traditional interest is and always has been PEOPLE. The Fmrnder of The Sal- vation A m y . asked for a one-word message for Salvationists around the world, sent the simple but significant word-"Others".

It is anticipated that sometime during Expo year there will come one of those strange, unexpected happenings requiring understanding help - an accident to a visitor far from home, a sudden and unexpected emergency demanding that at the other side of the world back home, a personal call, sympathetic advice, and factual information be forth- coming.

For this purpose The Salvation Army has placed at the disposal of Expo its world-wide, heart-to-heart, communications network. A word to the A m y officer in Montreal will lead to an immediate contact with the Army's representative in the country, county or town of the visit- or's home; news will be conveyed, and assistance odered by unceasing "hand to man, heart to God" minis- try of the Amy.

Aalf an hour later, in the huge open-air theatre, about two thousand people sat to hear a first-cIass music programme whlle thousands more stood beyond this enclosure.

at uarious points on the site at Expo. Tlie Army has geared itself for

all-out activity in Montreal during Expo Uear, and its Dn~mmond Street Citadel has been declared The Sal- zjation Army Expo Centre. From illis point will emanate the warm- hearted service which for a hundred- mid-one Dears has been the hallmark of the movement.

Tlte Salvation Army has, tltrough- out the world, cheered the hearts of men b~ the use of the riniversal language of music. An imaginative programme already well advanced has undertaken to bring to Expo some of the Army's musical aggre- gations. Their presence on the bancl- stands of Expo will again be indi- cative of the movement's interest in people, and its desire to use ever!] means at its disposal to encourage, to cheer, and to lift their spirits.

Where there are people, there lie the mission and the ministry of the Salvationist. Hence the Army which, in peace and in war, in disaster and in famine, in fire and in flood, has carried out its world-wide, unbiased humanitarian service, will seek to serve the millions of visitors to Expo -'67.

The Territorial Youth Seeretary Announces I l l

SUNDA' HE you satisfied with the accorr~plishments A of your Sunday school and corps? Are

the weekly activities making a vital impact on your community? Are they reaching a sufficient number of new young people and families for Christ and the Arnly?

If you must honestly answer "No" to these questions, thank God that He has given you a holy dissatisfaction with the status quo. You will also be thankful for and will welcome the announcement of a great territory-wide outreach challenge through our Sunday schools, to be known as "SUNDAY SCHOOL OPERATION OUT- REACH".

This is to be a three-pronged outreach crusade - a total corps project with a Christian education concept. It is a challenge to greater action to all Salvationists; a chal- lenge to break the mould of our conventional methods, and under the Holy Spirit's direc- tion MOVE OUT INTO NEW PATTERNS OF ENDEAVOUR - into new and exciting adventure for Christ and the people.

What a host of splendid Salvationisis across the territory are working for and are interested in young people! These efforts in- clude those being made by our fine youth, of whom we are justly proud. We thank God for such dedicated Christians, who are deeply concerned because of the need to reach unchurched young people and fami- lies, with a consciousness that the supreme hope for confused and bewildered young people lies in the gospel of our risen Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. We a t Territorial Headquarters share your concern. The Terri- torial Commander, Commissioner Edgar Grinsted, has on many occasions expressed his desire for a young people's "Recruitment Drive" and his backing and blessing are being given to "Sunday School Operation O~ltreach".

We Salvationists generally must lift our sights to see in our Sunday schools the stu- pendous potentiality to reach YOUNG PEOPLE AND FAMILIES FOR CHRIST in these days. May God grant that we shall catch the vision! We have yet to do our best in this respect.

"Sunday School Operation Outreach" has three phases. Let us look at them:

PHASE I - PREPARATION The time is NOW! Teachers and those

who should be teachers should secure from your corps offlcer the brochure entitled, Sunday School Operation Outreach and the Teacher and peruse its contents carefully.

Young people's sergeant-majors and young people's workers, you will want to make certain you have a copy of the SUN- DAY SCHOOL EVALUATION FORM. Your corps officer has a supply. Give this prayer- ful consideration, and be prepared to discuss it at your young people's workers "Opera- tion Outreach" planning meeting. Some of the questions may possibly "stab you awake".

The value of PRAYER PREPARATION cannot be overestimated. Why not have

Y SCHOOL OPERATION

special prayer times for "Operation Out- reach" with your Sunday school class? And what about special prayer in all young people's activities when they recommence in a month's time - brownies, cubs, guides, scouts, bands, singing companies, youth groups, corps cadet class, etc.? God the Holy Spirit who flred our Founders with a vision, and directed their actions to meet the con- ditions of their day, can do the same for us in our day! He is waiting to lead us out into new ventures, with new and greater

and vroductive.

PHASE II - TRAINING An exciting new leadership training plan

will be available for this phase of "Opera- tion Outreach," to take place during the Fall months. This will be conducted under divi- sional and corps planning, and will also include training by correspondence. MORE AND MORE TRAINED WORKERS ARE NEEDED! We trust all young people's workers will take advantage of this, along with many more who will enter a new spiritual commitment, (See the Brochure referred to above.)

PHASE Ill - CHALLENGE

wide recruitment drive, including an alive contest in each Sunday school, to bring in new young people and families. ALL chil- dren, young people and adults will be able to join in, and in due course will get "inside" information from your young people's ser- geant-maj or.

A corps officer in another territory, when commenting on the results of an all-out effort, said: "You don't get 748 individuals in your Sunday school by just wisl~ing!" Then, by way of further explanation, added: "HUNDREDS OF HOMES HAVE BEEN VISITED during the contest, and SCORES OF NEW FAMILIES have been brought under the influence of our ministry."

We learned of the amazing growth of another Army Sunday school which had an average attendance of 145, and in thrce years reached an average of 912, some attendances going over the thousand mark. However, this became a TOTAL CORPS PROJECT involving all their people, and the seeming impossible was accomplished. I'm reminded of a poem:

Somebodv said that it couldn:t be doite But h e wrth a chuckle replred

That maybe it cotrldn't but he would be one Who wouldn't say so 'till he'd tried.

So he buckled ~ i a l ~ t an w t t h the trace of a - grin

On his face-if he worried he hid it- Ile started to sing as he tackled the thtng

That couldn't be done - and he did it! It is our earnest hope and prayer that

every corps in this great territory of Canada and Bermuda will experience a tremendous forward surge as the result of reaching new young pcople and families; that the Chris- tian Education concept will grip the imagin- ation of all our people, so that this effort will become a total corps project, Sunday Schools of 500, 400, 300 and 200 per week in every part of the territory will provide the Army of the second century with flesh and blood - and local offtcers, soldiers, candidates and offlcers - to do the great task for which God raised us up. So let us PRAY, PREPARE, and PROPAGATE, using "OPERATION OUTREACH" as a means to this end - a tool in our hands.

We a re praying that many wonderful people within our ranks will see the great need, that the ultimate results in each corps will be cause for rejoicing. Let us make this

"Operation Outreach" will reach its zenith a God-glorifying effort f o r souls and the during this phase, climaxing Phases I and Kingdom. 11. This final phase will take place during J. DOUGLAS SHARP, the early months of 1967, with a territory- Ljeut.-Colonel

The Spiritual Potency 1 - 8 p 2 ~ ~ o ~ ~ c i p ~ a

Of Armv Bands 1 I CENTRAL CANADA MUSIC CONGRESS

A RE our bands finished as a spirit- ual force? That challenge con-

fronts us often, for "croakers" con- Bdently assert that our bands den- nltely are finished as a spiritual force. Such "false prophets" were vocal in the early 1920's, for they emphatically predicted the end mu- sically of Army bands as pro- grammes began to be broadcast over the air. Subsequent events, however, have proved the utter fallacy 01 such pessimism.

Conversely and strikingly, radio band pronammes have indisputably proved to be an invigorating impetus and incentive to Army bandsmen, urging them to strive for still better music for the highest cause. And what observations have the pessi- mists to make concerning the amaz- ing avenue of service accorded to Amny bands on the radio in the light of their forebodings?

Are Army bands still a potent spiritual force? As a bond of spirit- ual fellowship, holding men together in Christian unity, our bands are far from being defunct. Indeed, they ful- 8: the purpose and provision of the Scriptural injunction, "not forsaking the amembling of yourselves to- gether".

Ideal Position

Ask the Salvationist ex-service- man; for surely of all people he is in the ideal position of rightly asses- sing the spiritual value of Army bandship. And, judging by the scares of testimonies received by corps of- flcers, particularly during the last war and significantly, from bands- men who a t home were not regarded as "spiritual," in fact, thought to be instrumentalists only, there can be no doubt whatsoever that hun- dreds of our men realized for the Rrst time, and were fully convinced of, the spiritual potency of Army bands when they found themseives deprived of such ministry.

As a medium of salvation witness and conversion, surely i t is no exag- geration to claim that our bands now constitute the main open-air witness of The Salvation Army. Nor is it in any way an overstatement to assert that every time, without exception, any Army band proclaims salvation tidings something eternal is accom- plished; some immortal soul influ- enced.

Even if here the text peculiarly applies to the major part of the band's ministry - its influence and results, "the things that are seen arc temporal, but the things that arc not seen arc eternal," there arc occasional evidences which disclose the inestimable extent of such serv- ice.

No one can possibly estimate the

extent of the Army bond's ministry nowadays. Here again are but exam- ples of countless similar instances which continually occur. A minister who preaches to hundreds of people cvery Sunday evening was deeply moved as he faced his large con- gregation, and testifled to the un- failing inspiration that comes to him every Sunday as he makes his way to church, when he hears the small Army band playing the salvation message.

A famous surgeon in one of the largest hospitals of this country sent a donation to express his profound gratitude for the playing of the band outside the hospital on Sunday once a month, and especially for the play- ing of a hymn tune, which brought him urgently-needed fortitude when h e was performing a most difficult operation.

A police chief returning to his home one Sunday evening was greatly stirred as h e saw the Army bands at their task. "As long as the Army bands stand an the streets," he declared, "the Army will survive as a spiritual force". Let us seriously ponder this!

As the musical effectiveness of any Army band is determined by the musical efficiency of the individual bandsman, so the spiritual potency of any Army band will be the meas- ure of the spirituality of the indivi- dual bandsman. Suppose the spiritual condition of cvery bandsman of our foremost musical bands were com- mensurate with their musical effi- ciency, what would happen? One is deeply awed as one visual-

izes the untold possibilities if every individual Salvation Army bands- man would kneel in earnest prayer before undertaking any band en- gagement, The law of true prayer still unfailingly operates. "The pray- ers of the righteous have a powerful effect."--W.O.

A SONG FOR THE SHIPWRECKED

By LIEUT.-COLONEL G. AVERY (R) S might be expected, this song was A inspired by a shipwreck.

EDWARD UFFORD, an American Baptirt minister, was brought up quite near the coast at Boston, Mas.$., and was keenly interested in all things nautical. He was never happier than when talking with sailors.

Looking at the remaim of an old wreck on the seashore one day, he pic- tured the fatal night when the vessel battled against the wild elcn~ents and

wq E d y dashed to pieces. In his imagination he saw seamen struggling vainly for iife as, clinging to the wreek, they drifted to death in the cold waters because there was no one at hand to save theni. To Edward Ufford this was a picture of souls struggling helplessly mid the storms of life. The song bc- callle so popular that within a few years of its publication, in 1888, it had been translated into thirty languages.

WILLIAM THE FOURTH, one of Britain's sailor kings, once confessed:

When I was a young man, I be- lieved in nothing but pleasure and folly . . . nothing at all. But when I went to sea, got into a gale, and saw the wonders of the mighty deep, then I believed and I have been n sincere Christian ever since. JOHN NEWTON, a slave-trader and

a great sinner, received a vision of Christ during a terrible stonn at sea. As a result he was converted and becarne a distinguished hymn-writer.

JOHN and CHARLES WESLEY were so impressed by the calmness of a small band of Moravinn missionaries during a terrific storm in mid-Atlantic that it had a tremendous influence upon their own spiritual development.

Living in a Welfare State and in an age of affluence many people are for a long time spared the crises which rnight

~nake the111 aware of their insecurity. When the unexpected storm comes they cry out in the depths oE their despair. If they have lived carelessly, indifferent to their need of God's power and peace, they now have dificulty in getting into touch with Him.

This song is a reminder to those who are Christians, and have Jesus Christ as their Pilot to be on the look-out for those who long to be rescued from their desperately unhappy condition. To those who are living without God it is a warn- ing of the need to allow Hirn to be their Captain during the uncertain journey on the sea of life.

Tlzrow out the life-line with hand quick and strong:

Why do you tarry, my comrades, so long?

See, he is sinking! Oh, hasten to- day,

And out with the life-boat! AWUU, then, away!

Soon will the season of rescue be o'er,

Soon will they drift to eternity's shore;

Haste, then, mu comrades, no time for deiay,.

But throw out the life-line, and save them todau.

SECRETS OF THE

FINNY TRIBE LITTLE KNOWN FACTS

By John

I F you do not know all there is to be known about the flnny tribe,

you need not feel humiliated in the least. There are more than 12,000 species, classified in some 200 fam- ilies, and more than 3,300 of these inhabit the waters of North Amer- ica. Any person, by close observa- tion and study, may learn many in- teresting things about these flshy friends of ours.

Look, for instance, at the anatomy of the fish. Note the scales, the out- side skeleton, or protective covering. These scales are set in sockets in the skin, They grow with the Ash, add- ing concentric layers to the outside as they become larger. Most of the rings are formed in the warmer months during the growing period and may be used in determining the Ash's age, providing you can use a microscope and can determine the rings of a scale deflnitely.

High Speed Nature designed the fish for a life

in the water. So that i t might swim at high speed the body is "stream- lined". There is little water resis- tance. Cells in the skin secrete a mucous which makes the body slip- pery, so again speed results.

Did you know that water is 778 times heavier than air? This means the flsh is buoyed up and maintains its balance or equilibrium with ease. Then too, the vertical fins, dorsal and anal, serve as a keel in keeping the body upright. The swimbladder, which you have probably noticed in the upper half of the stomach cavity while cleaning a fish for cooking, also helps.

The back is the heaviest part of the fish. Of course the fish's body would turn over if it were not for the paired fins, pectoral and ven- tral, which serve as a rudder, bal- ancer, and brake. Even when the fish is resting, these paired fins are of necessity almost constantly in motion. By means of rhythmical muscular movements starting at the anterior end and travelling to the tail, the fish is enabled to move for- ward and backward. The caudal fin serves as a propeller.

Nearsighted A fish has quite different eyes

from ours. It can see in two direc- tions at the same time. It can see things above the water, but the image of distant objects is not defi- nite. It is nearsighted, too. The pupil is large, admitting sufficient light for it to see close objects

ABOUT FISH AS TOI,D

H. Jolliff clearly. Some species of fish can distinguish certain colours, as red, blue, and green. There are no eye- lids or tear glands, therefore Ash never cry over their petty troubles. Their eyes must remain open even during rest periods. Some fish that live in subterranean regions have no eyes.

Appetites Fish have appetites comparable to

young robins-seldom if ever satis- fied. Much of the life of a fish is given over to feeding. As a conse- quence, Ash continue to grow as long as they live. They do not taste or chew their food, but gulp it down. They can detect the presence of edible things in the water. Their four nostrils are placed in front of the eyes, two on each side of the snout. In man there is a connection between the nostrils and the mouth, thereby permitting breathing in either. Not so in fish. Their nostrils cannot be used for breathing; the fish breathes through his mouth.

Fish do not have external ears as man has, but have organs which register vibrations that are much too low for the human ear to record. The skin also serves as a hearing organ enabling the fish to locate currents, waves, and ripples. You probably have observed that fish swim against the current. This they do by instinct. Their vibration organs thus help them to avoid unseen objects in the water.

Colour Change Fish have colour cells located in

the skin or beneath the scales. These pigment cells are of several colours -red, orange, yellow, and blue, and expand, contract, or unite, depend- ing upon orders from the nervous system. Excitement, food, light, temperature, and courtship may cause a colour change, but only within narrow limits.

The female fish generally lays a great many eggs, often into the mil- lions, The egg masses often become attached to acquatic vegetation or other objects and remain there until hatched. The male fertilizes the eggs and then protects them froin harm until the young leave the nest.

Variations in fish as to size, food, reproduction, nests, variety, shapes, colours, power, habits, and habitat are almost endless. Even though the study may seem without end, yet it is always most fascinating.
