pleasure which this winter had given
him through his connection with the

the members of the first team to
stand that they might receive the
plaudits of the other members of the
Association. After this was done. he

team in the State of Maine for. the
winter of 1921 and 1922. He then
congratulated Captain Jarvis on his
team and their work.

vein. telling of the hard work which
his team had done to win the cham
pionship of the Duffer series from a
team which he Characterized as zone
of the fastest in the State" He said
that his only feeling of regret arose
from the fact that the season was
now over and he wondered If all who
had been in the contest this year
would be able to be in again next
year. or If the burden Of years would
begin to tell and they would be
forced to refrain.
Captain Warrell of the Bull
Moosers promised a comeback" for
next year. and told of the pleasure
which it had been to him to engage
in these battles on the ice. He asked
that each member of the association
keep the matter of a new gink on his
mind and be on the watch for the
proper place to put it next winter,
SO that when the time. should arise.
the necessary plans should have al
ready been made.
