Lawrence, Kansas Dear Friend of the Advisory Board: I am sending you, under separate cover, the annual report of The Salvation Army Lawrence Corps. I am sorry that it was impossible for you to be at the meeting in that several items of great importante were discussed. Let me tell you in part some of the meeting. The Board saw a moving picture entitled "Behind the Tambourine" depicting some of The Salvation Army work. After this the annual report was given by myself and questions asked pertaining to some of the figures in the report. Mr. Hoover reported on a debt by the local Salvation Army owing to Kansas City, Mo. Mr. Sees reported on the pur- chasing of & property for a home. Mr. *mith reported the possibility of the city of Lawrence purchasing our property for the erection of the new city hall and I presented building plans for our post war plan. The officers of last year were frozen to this position for the following nine months and the annual board meeting was changed to January instead of March as has been the custom. I hope you will find pleasure in reading the re- port and we shall look forward to our next meeting with you present. Sincerely,yours \ obert J edz RJGsmd Captain George L. Carpenter John J.
