THE CREDIT FOR 1T

We would like to pin medal on Mark Davis.
AS the chief aide of Mayor .Fawcett in the cam
paign that closed Saturday, he was without
doubt the busiest man in Pierce county. For
three weeks or more he dropped his business,
pleasure and all other ties to devote himself to
advancing the army post project. We have never
seen his energy and fidelity to public cause ex-
celed. And never was campaign carried
through more successfully.
And that is just about as far as The Times can
go in trying to distribute the credit for Satur-
days wonderful victory. Not that there are no
Others deserving of special mention-not at all,
but that there are too many
Stephen Appleby, Mayor Fawcett, J. T. s.
Lyle, the various newspaper men, Rev. Dyer
but there is no use in trying to list them it
simply can't be done.
Y Besides it is one of those cases where the
people who worked are not seeking credit; they
all are satisfied with the result.
The whole county has a bouquet coming and
1T is big enough for all to share.
