y for this; I did not create it, but
it is the fact. They will not go into a church or chapel; but they
will go into a theatre or warehouse, and therefore we use these
places. In one of our villages we use the pawnshop, and they gave
it the name of 'The Salvation Pawnshop,' and many souls were saved
there. Let me say that I am not the inventor of all the strange
terms that are used in The Army. I did not invent the term
'_Hallelujah Lassies_.' When I first heard of it I was somewhat
shocked; but telegram after telegram brought me word that no
buildings would contain the people who came to hear the Hallelujah
Lassies. Rough, uncouth fellows liked the term. One had a lassie at
home, another went to hear them because he used to call his wife
'Lassie' before he was married. My end was gained, and I was
satisfied.

"_Thirdly. We set the Converts to work._" (Hear, hear.) "As soon as
a man gets saved we put him up to say so, and in this testimony
lies much of the power of our work. One of our lassies was holding
a Meeting in a large town the other day when a conceited fellow
came up to her saying, 'What does an ignorant girl like you know
about religion? I know more than you do. I can say the Lord's
Prayer in Latin.' 'Oh, but,' she replied, 'I can say more than
that. I can say the Lord has saved my soul in English.' (Laughter
and cheers.)

"_Lastly. We succeed by dint of hard work._ I tell my people that
hard work and Holiness will succeed anywhere."

Of course, every day's march forward brought with it lessons that were
learned and utilised. Not long could The General continue to interview
Candidates himself, and then forms of application were evolved. The
Candidate must have every opportunity to understand what would be
required of him, and to express his agreement or otherwise with the
teachings and principles of The Army. It was made clear to him or her
that, whilst called upon to offer up a life-long service to this work
for Christ's sake, he must expect no guarantee of salary whatever, and
no engagement even to continue to employ him, should he at any time
cease to act up to his promises, or show himself to be inefficient in
the work.

As for the Soldiers, it was soon required of them that they should sign
"Articles of War" before they could be enrolled. These Articles formed
so simple and clear an
