Canadian custom harvesters on the North American plains. The banquet and the
play conclude with Marilyn and Al's “Custom Harvesters Song,” an ode that

"As already indicated in Chapter 5, the scandal combined with a series of other
criticisms to play a role in ending Asquith's Liberal government and ushering in
the coalition.25 As noted earlier, there were undoubtedly severe shell shortages
in France, but the important deficit was in heavy artillery ammunition and the
guns to fire them. Had the deficiencies been as great as French implied First
