THE RED JERSEY CAMPAIGN.
HELP THEM—HELP OTHERS. The Red Jersey Committee ask you to aid the Salvation Army in order to aid others.
You, in that way, put yourself "over there in the thick of it, whero this Army seeks to save and servo in the hour of need. A Sammy writes: " There's one organisation over here that is doing more than the people in the States dream of. Ask any soldier or officer about the Salvation Army, and %ee if every guy doesn't boost it to the cloud::.
"I know, becauso I hear the gang spouting praises every day, and I've seen the Salvationists deliver. " You don't have to give a red penny. If you're broke you're more welcome than a guy with his pockets bulging. I always doped the Salvation Army wrong at home. I thought a sandwich or a cup of coffee meant that you had to say a string of prayers, and stand up in a crowded hall and testify what a wicked sinner you'd been. " I've sampled their hospitality in every sector, and I never even had to say ' Amen,' though inwardly I have when I left canteens, on cold, wet nights with a warm, full itomach. " Remember that line about reaching a man through his stomach? Well, it's right 1 " The poet who pulled that knew what he was talking about. A fellow doesn't need much preaching out here. He thinks religion and prayers to himself— before a battle. I wrote to the folks to drop in money whenever they saw anyone with a Salvation Army tambourine." Aucklanders are asked to give £25,000 towards _ the War Work of the Army. What will you give? ' The treasurer, Mr. 0. V. Houghton, and his staff are in attendance at the Red Jersey Committee Room, No. 1, Ground Floor. N.Z. Insurance Building. Queen Street, to receive your contribution. Do your best—
