The committee on education commended
the good work of the education society,
and pleaded that the churches contribute
more largely to this worthy cause. The
committee on resolutions spoke favorably
of the northern Baptist convention, ana
urged the churches to raise their appor-
tionment in full; also in behalf OF the
duplex system as method OF raising n
nances for current expenses and mis-
sions, and recommended that Zion's Ad-
uocote be found in every Baptist home. 1t
also extended hearty thanks to the Winter
Harbor church for its unstinted hospital
ity, ard this part of the report was
adopted by rising vote. The steamship
companies were also remembered for their
favor OF special rates.
Pastor Drew was the committee on obit-
uaries, and called the roll OF those who
had heard the higher cali during the year.
There were many present who voiced their
appreciation OF these helpers who had
gone before. Special mention was made
Of Dea. G. w. Richards, OF the Eden
church, for many years an Office bearer in
that body; also OF '.Aunt Salome". Sellers,

Rev. A. w. Lorimer, the treasurer OF the
lay by system, reported that he had re-
ceived S114.S9 and had disbursed this
among the various societies. 1t was voted
that the churches be requested henceforth
to send offerings direct to the societies.
Rev. Elisha Sanderson was elected
convention committeeman. The clerk
was instructed to send to Rev. A. W..
Young, OF South Penobscot, q message Of
fraternal greeting and regret that he
could not attend on account Of the loss
OF his voice, which, it is hoped, is only
temporary.
An address by Bro. Sanderson, s'Stop-
ping the Leaks" was most.helpful. The
church letters reported forty-seven
baptisms, OF which twenty-six were from
the Bar Harbor church.
A motion that the East Lamoine church
be dropped from the roll Of the sssocia-
ton was carried. After fitting words by
the moderator, busy session was brought
to close with benediction by Pastor
Drew.
While the sessions were somewhat abb
breyiated because Of the weather condi-
tions, there were no dull moments after
the meetings began. Special mention
should be made Of the work Of the choir
under the leadership OF Mrs. Hansen.
The next meeting will be the seventy
fifth anniversary of the association, and
plans are already being made to make the
meeting one of unusual interest.

THE COUNTY
CHAMP|O IONS
Especial to THE TINES

Lowell, Ind. Nov. 22-The Ham
mond high school football team won
the championship of Lake county last
Saturday by defeating the Lowell high
school by the score of 90 to 0. The
game was witnessed by fifteen or TWEEN
" Hammond rooters, who accompanied
the boys to Lowell
The high school team. however. did
more than establish a reputation for
football playing; it established a repu-
tation for aristocracy in athletics
through tht fact that the whole team
was taken to Lowell in automobiles
some of which We're owned by the faith
ers of the students on the team
The cars which were placed at the
disposal of the boys on the team were
owned by P. w Meyn, j. G. Ibach A.

Stewart. This made it possible to ig-
more the train schedules. and the play
ers were able to take their time in get
ting to the grounds.
Crowd sees Game.
The game was witnessed by a large
crowd of rooters While the Hammond
team was lighter than that which rep
resented Lowell. it made up for the
difference in weight with a superior
knowledge of the game. The Lowell
boys were unable to prevent large gains
by means of the onside kick and the
forward pass.
The score of % 10 0 was a decisive
victory and leaves Hammond the cham
pion of Lake county The only team
which was able to defeat Hammond was
the south Bend high school. Michigan

Tha playing of Julius Meyn, Car
Bauer and Walter Kennedy was ex-
cellent and the others played a good
game The score at the end OF the
| first half was 70 to 0. Two touch
downs were scored in each half. and
the locals failed to kick goal once in
this period.
