games played with outside clubs. The
schedule Of inter-club games had been
somewhat cut down this year as to
number. The Ely club won every
match played on the home grounds
and lost every one played on other
courses.
It was the sense of the meeting that
a club trophy be presented to the club
champion each year. The Chas Ire
iona championship trophy was pre-
sented this year to DR.. P. D. mccarthy
who won the same after hard battle
with Berger Lindbeck, last years
champion. This trophy is in the nature
of cup and has been won in turn by
Thos. j. Carey. Ed. Bolitho, Berger
Lindbeck and DR.. McCarty. The cup
becomes the property of anyone winning
the same twice within three years.
Messrs. Lindbeck and McCarty are the
only ones in the running for the per-
manent possession of the cup. Ed. G.
Jones made the presentation talk and
DR.. McCarty responded. Both talks
were humorously inclined and were re-
ceiyed by the members in the spirit in
which they were given.
The ladies' championship trophy was
presented to Miss Josephine Strachan,
winner of the ladies championship
matches. Mrs. Thos Thielman was the
runner-up in this event. Miss Strachan
was absent and B. o. Strachan received
the award on behalf of his daughter
with few well chosen words of thanks
President Richards made the award.
The meeting then dissolved into a
get-together with hot dogs, coffee and
other accessories being served by COM
mittee. The hot dog lunch for the
past two years has taken the place of
the annual banquet and was inaug-
urated to keep expenses down. For
the lunch, a number of the ladies of
members who had attended the meeting
of the Eastern Stars arrived and par
ticipated.
The Shagawa Club is in a very good
financial condition made possible by the
excellent work of members who during
the unemployed months of the summer
worked out their dues on the course
and saved the Club in the neighborflood
of $4,000.
