To Be Commended
You and your staff (and most
probably the National
Archives) are to be commend-
ed on your special
Heritage edition.
As the former corps officer
of the New York Temple
(NY#1) during their 75th an-
niversary year, Executive Offi-
cer for the Western Centennial
Congress in 1983 and the for-
mer DC of the Intermountain
Division during their Centenni-
al Year in 1987, many of the
photos and articles, especially
those on pages 6, 7 and 8 are
of special interest to me.
It is unfortunate that there
are no dates attached to these
articles (other than
on the front page, 1895, or
perhaps the entire edition
is from 1895?) We can do fur-
ther research if we wish.
Any further help would be
appreciated.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Very Special!
I have just finished reading
over the Special Heritage Issue.
I especially enjoyed the sto-
ry on page 8 about the Seat-
tle #1 Corps, having attended
the Seattle Temple Corps
while I served as the divisional
director of development for
the Northwest Division.
Being a former member of
the New York Staff Band, I
also enjoyed the band photos
on pages 12, 13 and 20.
But my favorite of all is the
photograph of the Founder
on page 3. What a find!!!
Would it be possible to get
a copy of that photo sent to
me via Lotus Notes for use on
our corps website, as well as
in some of our internal publi-
cations (i.e. annual reports,
newsletters, etc.)?
What a great edition! Keep
up the good work. Blessings!

A Time
Capsule
Worth
Sharing
Behind the bell and kettle is a global Salvation Army
with an impact that spans three centuries. The spe-
cial Heritage Edition of the War Cry is a time capsule
capturing Salvation Army roots in the 1890s. You can
order additional copies to have on hand so people can
learn more about how the Army dared to proclaim the
love of God and serve suffering humanity in His name
amid great difficulties and opposition. This first edi-
tion of a planned Heritage series contains authentic
writing in a true-to-the-period format. The content
shows the robustness and dedication of pioneering
Salvationists. In the words of National Commander
Commissioner William Roberts, the "examples of Sal-
vationists of days past will embolden Salvationists for
days present and future."
