SALVATION ARMY
PLANSNEW WORK
Training School to Develop More
Officers for Tasks of
Reconstruction.
TO HAVE LARGER BUILDING
College Gives Men and Women Severe
Tests for Social Welfare Work
—Students Trained With
Care and Patience.
New York.—The Salvation army,
now that the war is over, is planning
and preparing for its work of recon
struction. The active part that the
army took in the war called many of
its officers and men to France, many
are still there and may be for some
time, and since the army and its work
has been growing and expanding there
is at present a real need for more
officers. A few days ago the army
graduated a class of fifty-four officers,
thirty-three of whom were women.
When the next class is sent out it
will be twice this number.
This institution trains its students
with infinite care and patience. It
has its training college at 333 West
Twenty-second street, which is in
charge of Colonel Charles Miles, who
has been a member of the army for
thirty-eight years. In the near future
the army will either purchase or erect
a larger and more commodious college
building at an expense, if necessary,
of between $400,000 and $500,000.
Many College Graduates.
Many officers today in the Salvation
army are college or university grad
uates, and others were just graduated
from the world’s school of hard
knocks. They are all, however, men
and women of more than average in
telligence, and some have made really
great sacrifices for the privilege of
wearing the simple blue uniform of
the organization. Os the class just
graduated one young man won honors
and a degree at Cornell university,
and seventeen of them were in the
country’s service during the war, one
of whom won the croix de guerre.
Since the war many soldiers and sail
ors have expressed a desire to join the
organization.
It is not an easy matter to become
an officer in the Salvation army be
cause the organization is exceedingly
particular about getting the right kind
of men and women to guide its des
tinies, and, although many are called
few are chosen, and a person before
becoming an officer is put through a
rather severe acid test. Some can
didates are quickly disillusioned at
the outset by the smallness of the pay,
for lieutenants and captains receive
but $9 and sl2 a week, and must pay
for their board and lodging out of
this sum, and they also pledge them
selves to remain with the army for
life. They must devote all their ener
gies to the organization, and are not
permitted to labor outside of their
work for remuneration. A major—and
one must have worked long and faith
fully to attain such a high rank —re-
ceives a salary ’of s2l a week and a
small allowance for house rent and
for each child. Most of the higher
and older officers in the army could
go out into the world and make a fat
living without any difficulty, and they
have been frequently offered lucrative
positions, which they have refused be
cause they have preferred to be faith
ful to their trust.
To become an officer in the organi
zation a candidate must possess a
certain degree of natural intelligence,
must love the Lord and his neighbor,
and must possess the indefinable some
thing known as the Salvation army
spirit.
Must Prove Worth.
Before being admitted to the train
ing college a candidate is first as
signed to an army corps for a period
of six months. He is there given an
opportunity to prove that lie is made
of the right sort of stuff by showing
his willingness to do cheerfully any
kind of task assigned him. He is
immediately sent out on the streets
with the corps and often to a tough
neighborhood in the city where he
may encounter a decidedly unfriendly
element. Almost at the start he must
make his prayer or plea to the night
crowd on the street corner. If at the
end of his period he has shown the
proper spirit he is then sent to the
army training college. The course
here is nine months. He pursues a
course of Bible study, learns the cus
toms and laws of the organization, and
attends lectures. If he does not pos
sess the sticking qualities demanded
of Salvation army officers, or shows
that he is not fitted for the work, he
is frankly told so. and is advised to
return to his home town where he
may nevertheless work for the organ
ization, and take up for his life work
some other line of endeavor for which
ho is bettor fitted. At the college the
army exorcises a weeding-out process
so that it may make no mistake in its
selection of officers. Many who aspire
to attain rank are quick to realize
that they are not intended for such
rigorous social welfare work, and are
frank to say so when they realize the
sacrifice rtnd hard work it entai's.
At the outbreak of the war the Sal
vation army pledged itself to servo
and stand by the ntttion. Almost every
member was engaged in some kind of
war work, and a large percentage of
the organization was in France.
