ton whether due to lack of reports |
being made or to a weakness in the |
promotion of this, the primary aim OF
the association one may not state spe
1t is most evident where ,
the weakness Of the work of the asSO-
Citations of our size is. In every other |
statistic the work of the associations |
seems fairly well developed in average !
as we'll as in the mode, but here is
tie point that needs the most atton- !
