When moat of the residents of Donald, B. C. moved to Golden, B- C, 1
because the railroad had changed its divisional headquarters, they decided I
they should take their favorite church with them. In the dark of the I
night they returned to their old community, took ths church apart, I
and moved it to the new location at Lake Windermere.
More than 870,000 miles of transmission and distribution gaa mains, and
almost $9,000,006,000 of capital are required to provide service to America’s
17,000,000 customers using gar This indeed is astounding progress, when
we compare it with the first "long distance" iron gas main, built just
a distance d five’and one half miles! „‛nn
