Y., PEIDAY, JUNE 27TH, 1919 N0.5 I €0L. McINTYRE’S STATE MENT SHOULD HELP DRIVE Chairman A. Edward Kreiger Receives Letter that Should Greatly Assist Campaign Now The following extract frpm a letter received by Chairman A. Edward Krieger of the local Salvation Army Campaign Committee, should bring the campaign to a successful close not only raising the $ 10,000 quota given to Salamanca but an amount exceeding that figure. Col. McIntyre writes; “In regard to what I have agreed to amounts raised ^ocally, so that ' there will not be any mistake I want to state in writing that if Salamanca will raise $10,000 I will see that the disbursement board allots from terri tory outside of the city of Salaman ca an equal amount and if they raise up to $12,500, I will see that they allot an additional $2,500 to make a total of $25,000.” This statement of Col. McIntyre should awaken the people of Sala manca to the fact that every dollar ► given fo this campaign of the Salva tion Army not only helps that organ ization but helps Salamanca equally as much. Do not wait until this campaign is over and then regret that as all during the war we did our bit, we failed on the last big job. Standing room only prevailed at the Andrews Sunday afternoon and while the crowd was at first disap pointed that the McIntyre sisters had missed their train in New York and could not be present, the afternoon’s* program was so instructive and so entertaining that the crowd left the theatre brim full of enthusiasm for Ihe Salvation Army and the work it is doing. Judge Thomas H. Dowd presided ■'as chairman and his remarks were at all times appropriate and filled •with a humor which always character izes Judge Dowd’s efforts along this line and makes of him a welcome pre- si^pg officer at so many gatherings inj^his vicinity. ^i(Clarence Velie, one of the recently returned service men gave several \iano and vocal selections that pi^oved so entertaining to the boys *‘()ver There” and which proved ■ ecmally entertaining to the large audience of Sunday afternoon. HJudge Dowd then introduced Col. Mi jntyrt ,who explained briefly the i'u’^-ibility of his daughters to be pres et jt at the meeting and then at some lel Wth explained the early struggles ofM th^ Salvation Army. Col. Mcln- enlisted in the Salvation Army af?|the age of 17 and from that time riKjht up to the present has devoted hiVs entire time to the work of the A’l ’my. Col. McIntyre’s talk was iatly enjoyed by the audience'and lid not help but make every person 10 heard it realize the great work it is being ^ione by the Army, i Judge Leslie A. Pease of Dunkirk then introdLiced by Judge Dowd an d who told in a very interesting m. anner of the work done by tlie Sal- v<ion Army in his own city and ot her cities notably New York, which hi^id come under his observation. The Erie Shop Band rendered ccv- Oi^al patriotic and inspiring sclcctiono di&ring the afternoon and in closing program the audience accompln- | i^ d the band and sang the Star Si:an:j,j led Banner. j The McIntyre sillers arrived in | Sfeiarnanca IMonday morning an..d ; s®ent a v'ery bucy day. In the morn- , iiXg. Frank C. T*re. colt who, by llie j y, should have a badge pinned t n j hilm reading “Reception Committee” d which should be worn by him 365 ays in the year, took the young lad- ^.es for an auto \'trip around Salaman- a. The McIntyre sisters spoke at he B. R. & P. shops at noon, Erie hops at 3 o’clock. A well attended eeeption was given them at the eadquarters at Main and Maple treets at 4 p. m. In the evening they poke at the Andrews and Strand heatres. The McIntyre sisters proved even more interesting than bhe many articles appearing about hem in the big papers all over the ountry would naturally indicate. The canvassers are now busy and ^t is expected that they \will complete heir work today. Doughnuts? We imagine that the Editor of the Inquirer is the only person in this vicinity that might mistake the above “cuts” for one of doughnuts, how ever it is doughnuts we want to talk about and not cuts. We simply want to impress upon your mind that all day tomorrow the Woman’s Commit tee of the Salvation Army Drive will fry and sell doughnuts at the Cam paign headquarters, Main and Maple street.s Doughnuts wilL be on sale all day and far into the night at five cents each and 50 cents a dozen and then of course if your curiosity gets the best of you and you want to try them out either singly or by the doz en and you should not have time to wait for the change, your haste in the matter will not in any way be of fensive to the ladies of the commit tee, General Chairman Krieger or The Salvation Army’s Representative on the Job, Mr. Withey. Engagements have been made- and contracts signed for the evening per formance with Harry Connelly and “Boo’ Miess who will act in the ca pacity of auctioneers. If these ex tremely modest young men are as successful in the exchange of dough nuts for your money as they are in arranging a “night off” the receipts of this session -will be perfectly sat isfactory to all concerned. The Woman’s Committee who are the Doughhut Friers for this day, at least are Mrs. Edward Sheppard, Chairman; Mrs. C. H. McCann, Mrs. E. P. Vreeland, Mrs. Raymond Fitz gerald, Mrs. H. R. Finch, Mrs. J. C. Krieger, Mrs. Warren Hoy. You may not he able to wear the croix de guerre but if you appear on Main street Saturday without evi dences on your chin and in your hair of just having disposed of a ripe luscious doughnut, you will without doubt be repudiated by our best citi zens. Take home an armful Satur day night and devour them Sunday morning as you do eggs on Easter Sunday. Bradford to Have Fourth of July Celebration J.
