Only six of the United States were represented in the awards given, so we can. see that this is quite an honor. The largest portion of credit is due Gladys Hamrick and her home demonstration club women who spon sored the campaign. Another Slice of gratitude is given the merchants who cooperated in making the cam paign an outstanding success . ; . successful to the extent that the na tional committee on awards consider- noon.
