Taylor With the Salvation Army drive for $4,600 opening Monday morn-; ing for a two-weeks campaign, | members of the Army and yolun-| teer workers today were putting last minute plans into shape.

O Taylor, Divisional Commander of the Salvation Army, has released | the annual report on Salyation work ! in Juneau for the year ending De-| cember 31, 1945 This report, with commendatory statements from President Harry Truman and War-Ace Capt.

Happily the work has rever lost the spirit which| he infused into it, God grant that its good work may grow and pros- per as the years pass.” Capt. Rickenbacker's statement reads in part: “The Salvation Army knows no forty-hour week. It does the job in hand as we must jearn to do now-a-days. In min- istering to the need of the body, it does not lose sight of those of| the Spirit.” During the year the Salvation Army in Junead has held 172 meet- ings for young people, with a total | attendance of 3260.
