He said that of the seven million Lithuanians in existence, there were one million in this country. His talk was very well received. Mayor Curtis Speaks. Mayor Curtis congratulated Lithuanians on their past successes and gave the gathering his well wish- es for the future. He urged all those present to be loyal citizens of their adopted country and explained what a power for good they have proved themselves to be for this country. Prosecuting Attorney Joseph Woods delivered the most inspiring address of the evening. Hhe chose as his sub- ject the “Flag.” His remarks were received with prolonged applause, and the manner in which he rendered his oration showed him to be a speak- er of no mean ability. St. Andrew’s church choir rendered musical selections during the evening, and the gathering broke up at a late hour. ENGLISH SERVICE AT SALVATION ARMY Swelsh Latring Taken OF Wi dows at Arch St. Headquarters the Captain John Eden, the new head of the Salvation Army barracks in this city, has decided to make the ar at least partially an English sp ing organization. Heretofore, most of the services have been held in Swedish and a large sign “JFrals- nings Armen,” on the two big win- dows told only those who could read| Swedish what organization met there, Swedish Words Removed Captain Fden has had these words removed and nothing noy marks the front of the building but the regular | shield with the words ion Army” in nglish on each glass, and an electrically illuminated Salvation Army sign over the door. English Meetings Services will be held in every Saturday night and all street| meetings will be in English. There has heen considerable criticism Jire: ed at the army in the past because of the tendency to keep it exclusively a Swedish organization here. It was argued that practically all the Sweds ish people in the city can vead and understand English while few English | speaking people know anything about | Swedish. Under these circumstances | it was felt that people, other than Swedish, were being barred from fhe services, Captain Iden says he docs not want to continue this impression | and that services will be held in both | languages. The exclusiveness of the Army heretofore is felt to have n:ul} something to do with the failure of | the recent drive for $5,000. | Stoves And Beds Needed A very good heating stove and sev- cral beds have been received as a suM of an appeal made in Wedncs- day's Herald, towards furnishing the Jodging house for down and outcrs, More beds and several stoves | needed.
