THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE Wednesday, January 26, 1938 1 PROTON STATION The Janrary thaw did not fail to come and the water, which poured into the dry or nearly dry cisterns, . would be welcome.

We were afraid they were going to hibernate, this winter, but it took the Semi-Pro. Hockey League to bring them into action. They played their first game against Dundalk last Friday night. While they were defeated 8-3, it was actually the first hockey game for some of them and for many of them the first hockey game played on a rink. Proton Station hockey team has al. most a new line-up this year. One or two of the old team remain to give the others inspiration and encourage- ment, so when the boys get exper- ience and practice they will likely hold their own with the other teams in the League. The morning after the game we asked one of the boys how he got along at the game, and he said "Just fine as long as our wind lasted, which was just until the end of the first period. They know their limita- tions and will likely improve. Suc- cess, koy«. CEYLON FEVERSHAM Rev. F. Dean and Mra. Dean spent an afternoon with Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Short and family recently. Mrs. E.
