I will impose no restraint -on what I Kaye to say regarding the season's activities and those who took part in. them because I am not speaking .of the. dead, or indeed of events that can die. Those events are so registered on ray- brain that the memory gf them will survive as long as the brain continues to function. lint first I must soul- fully thank all those who participated in the Mock Battles, the Sham 'Lights • that proved so intriguing. Most as- suredly each and every member of the, various teams did their utmost, ac- cording to their abilities • in a valiant effOrt to Take the game interesting, captivating and thrilling, We are very much indebted to them and we wish them to know that and also to . feel assured that next -season when they resume their labor of love, as I think most of them will they will be pro- vided with certain incentives and am- onities that will farther stimulate their metal and improve their play. Amongst other things I have in mind in that connection is one that I am going to insist upon and that is the provision of a Retiring Room for the players in which Shower Baths will be the chief feature. We owe the players at least that much, and as hon- est folks, accustomed to payin'g for our enjoyment. We should concentrate on finding Means to liquidate our just debts. I intended saying very much more but space forbids. Yours truly, Jas. G. Webster. LOAN REPLACES WAR CERTIFICATE War Saving Certificates Will Be Taken Off Market Sept. 30th.
