CORNERSTONERTE SETFORSHTURDAY Salvation Army Will Hold Exercises at Site of New Building. The corner stone of the new Social Bervice Center Building of the Salva- tion Army, to be located at First and P streets, will be laid Saturday morn- ing by Alexander Damon of Atlanta, commissioner in charge of the South- ern territory of the army. He will be assisted by District Com- missioner Melvin C. Hazen, who will preside at the ceremonies. Brig. J. G. McGee, who is in charge of the cen- ter at present, will introduce Commis- sioner Hazen, and Dr. Frederick Brown Harris, pastor of Foundry Methodist Episcopal Church, will offer a prayer for the success of the new building and its enterprises. Executive Offices Stay. The center, which is exclusively for men, was formerly located at 102 Con- stitution avenue, but for some time now has been at 629 New Jersey ave- nue, where the executive offices will remain until the new building is com- pleted, probably in March. ‘The new building will house the ad- ministrative offices and sleeping ac- commodations for 85 men, with din- ing rooms and recreation rooms in- cluded in one wing of the structure. A storeroom where materials collected by the Salvation Army may be re- A Woo 'WARD sold, also will be located in the new building. The Boys’ Band of the National Training School will play a series of selections at the dedication exercises. 75 Are Accommodated. The shops, where cast-off and do- nated materials are renovated by the army’s workers, are located between First and Second and E and P streets, where they will remain after the new building is completed. At present approximately 75 men are being accommodated with food and lodging daily at rooms located at 310 Sixth street. The new building will centralize these divisions of the work and is ex- pected to increase the amount of re- lief work that can be distributed among those most needing it. e Fined for Two Kisses.
