There is "cbovsidetr&iblei activity a-  mong 'Satlvatiionists and friends of  The ' Salivation Army-throughout  the JOoTnikiiion in connection, wi'h.  the proposed ereetiqn- of alVIeni-  aria'l to thc life-work of General  William Booth, the Founder of tine  world-wide - movement. If loving  deyotiop' to the.grand old man and  active ajnrxaiety towards the accomplishment of this scheme count for  anything, the Training,Institution,  which hajs been decided upon to  tkaie the form of this memorial, will  become, am established fact.  There is a widespread feeling  among- all classes that such a life.  ais that loathe late General, should,  be ���������kept.greem in the people's memory by -the.establishment of soine  iinstituiltion that should have ior its  aim a work harmonizing with the  ideals so vividly set- forth tht >-  ughout  his  en'tire career.-  This will be. the beginning of tbe  realization) of o[ne- o'f the late tien-  eral's umtfinished' schemes, namely,  the  britnigijrig into  existence  oil   a  number of "Universities- of Huron-  niity" i|n tho larger cities of the  world. Such lain institution will r-e  erected' in  Toi-obto.  It must be remembered, that ch*  achievements of The", Salvation Army depend i)n a very large measure' upon its officers. .They are  men and wom'en Through whose  warmth ���������of devotion, self-sacruicc  and nobility of purpose, there overflow to the world, cleansing and  healing screams of influence.'  A great ' deal of responsibility  falls upqn them.' They are called  upon for great qualities' of command, courage, and strength'- of  will. They aire always the people-  who represent the Salvation Arm1..  How important it is, therefore, thai.  every opportunity should be givui  loir 'preparation and suitable stidy  before Ihey commence their life's  woirk. .   . ,    .  At-������the moment, The Army is  handicapped in this respect, in-as-  much ais the accommodation of Lhs  present College is considerably  overtaxed and, therefore, the idea  of this memorial is npt only ;one  of;s;enitiniient, but of necessity  The! provision' for* adequate   ac  oommoda/tion/ of one hundred and  twenty-five persons, and an up tr> ,  date equipment,  would involve au.���������  expenditure  of two. hundred and  fifty thousand dollars.. This ��������� ma.v  appear a   large ,amoun't,   but   wo  believe the mbnjey would be wftU ,  spent, .as  it "would  be  a,n,inycal-  ment'securing'great and beneiicusi  results for the' future ot our ii,a  tion.   , . *'  i - ���������*.   * " h l  .Whatever can be done to makn  this ,'im'aiitutiion a "fact should hdic  the hearty support of every aida  and woman  who washes  cho  ir^.t  * I' ������t '   * V '   ������  for his, day and generation.

General Booth was-a master  in this realm, a^id the purpose to  perpetuate his memory by providing for such'an institution" as the  one referred to, seenos to be peculiarly fitting.
