Some wonderful record the precision and unanimous enthusiasm with which the Campaign was carried out was due to the army of men who formed the organization the one Hundred and Twenty five Cen trial committees and the can Vassers who went out on the firing line and cleaned up the Job. It is invidious to pick out names where Over 3.000 Are concerned every one of whom made an enviable score of personal accomplishment but some records Are so outstanding that they cannot be overlooked like those of Chamberlain and his committee of Swan Kiver who laconically wire in the caesarean report Swan River Valley 355.543.00." or Engineer por Ter and his detachment of the Pas.
