I believe this will be the start of the fourth year since we

appreciate the opportunity to serve the account again. However
we do appreciatetthe fact that the Town Board has to give condider-
ation to all agents whom they feel qualified tolhandle the account.
When the business was written thru our agency, we were asked
to split a certain amount of commission with other agents, *hich we
were happy to do. I do not recall that our agency particiIiated `in
any commissions since we were the writing agents.
Queensbury is a fast growing town with numerous problems. As
a resident I would like to express my appreciation of the heavy
demands on the time of all Town Officials.
May I extend Holiday Greetings to Members of the Town Board
and Town -Officials. - -
