The Ruth Lodge
The Ruth Lodge, in Grey Street, was established by the Salvation Army, and there some of the Army's noble rescue work is carried on. This Home is for women only. The officers attend the Police Courts and visit the gaol on the discharge of the prisoners, and unostentatiously devote their best energies on behalf of erring women and girls. They also hold religious services in the gaol every Saturday afternoon. Ensign Randall is the officer in charge of the Ruth Lodge.
