The Salvation Army flag

The Army flag itself is not sacred but is a symbol of the beliefs held by Salvationists. The Army's motto 'Blood & Fire' is also inscribed on the flag.
The blue border represents the holiness of God. The red background is a reminder of Jesus' blood shed on the cross that all may live lives free from sin. The yellow star symbolises the power of God's Holy Spirit.

Thrift stores under attack
THE Salvation Army's is becoming increasingly annoyed at the poor way its Salvos Stores are treated by the public.
In recent months, the church has come out condemning the practice of dumping garbage on the front steps of its stores which costs it thousands of dollars in dumping costs.
While some members of the public are leaving useable secondhand goods at its front doors, many people are leaving total rubbish.
The latest trend was highlighted on Channel 7's current affairs program Today Tonight where non-needy people are stealing good-quality donations from outside the stores.
The Army has constantly tried to dissuade people from leaving donations at the stores after hours but the practice persists.
Now people who are often well off are stooping to stealing from the less-fortunate by taking goods left by well-meaning donors.
Today tonight highlighted a store at Lutwyche on Brisbane's northside which, night after night, has been the target of the "thieves".
With a hidden camera (see picture) and a reporter inside, the television station filmed and caught in the act several people, including allegedly the proprietors of an adjoining Chinese restaurant.
To have donations picked up, telephone the Salvos' National Hotline on 13 72 58
