The distributive departments were respcmefitfe Joycomparative increases of 8.9 pcr cent, which is a most creditable achievement when we consider the very high figures of a 'year ago. Unfortunately, the Building Department have not the large contracts such the as Koxian Factory and the Skellingthorpe Hut Conversions which were in operation a year and the reduction in sales of 664 agq, E6. in this department has shortened kbii aggregate increase. The average weeldy urchases per member now amounts to fil 7th, which 7s refieefs tfm continued Jsy'ttfty of our membem, and to them we say tlute you for iasponrhng to the we made appeal to hmrease our std» se as to combit the rising costs of all items of expense. As this result has not been achieved wfthout great efiortcon the patt of the employees we do extend our thanks to them for the grand work they have dppps s. (b) Membership. —The present membership is 37,437, an increase of 224 for the Quarter. (c) Cetwtry EsthBtitiona —Anengsments have been made for exhibitions to be staged in country areas as follows.

We rely on the patronage of our members in these area's to mala; the shows a success and to jwtily thc expense and extra work incurred in. staging them. 'The itutge'of' dry goads wN be considerably in excess of what can be acconunodatvd in the branch premises and will be well worth a visit. (d) Branch. —The business id ~by Mr. W. Millhouss was conveyed to the Society early in Jaiauuy. and will be otficially opened in a few weeks time after alterations to thi; premises are completed. (e) BracebridRe Heath — . Property. A block of foity shops, anmngst which is the Society's Butchery Branch, urchased on the tsiantham RoaiL Vacant has been psassion hw been obtained of one of these shops and it i~ intended. after ave been cerned out, to open this as a grocery branch. In this raphBP. suburb ik hw been lpng felt that we required a grocery shop, and we are confident that this purchase by the Society mer'e ~ wa~be thin lu'glBie8 (kyfiogiwj nmults. N Gardetm —Yet another reasonable ~ and strategic purchase has beenthe gromrybmunem of Mr. J.Prescott, Gardens, which was taken over on 16th January. It ~ has long bean our desirc, to,finkjpr~ejscs more entrally situated on the large St. Ciles estate, and we feel sure it will be well received by our member's in the vicinity. q. k - Footwear — .

' (I) Mr. 'JL %elh.=Thre eriiik of the Peart prckehtt'Hislf wiB bring the retiststrsnt of Mr. H. Welk under the sge hmit rufe. Fink "P@~+ elected in 1935, Mr. Wsfls wiB have . comkdeted 15 years' continuous and vrduabfe service, inctudmg a period as President. It is difficult to single out any aspect of such a conscientious person's work either for the Society or the Movement, but his knowlvdsv of matters concemiug Hours and Wages, of which District Beard he is a member. will ertsinly be missed. His knoedadge of tJm building trade was a useful asset to the Directors, and his reasoned judgment will be missed by sll his colleagues in the ardrocsn. Mt. F. Grainger, JB'.—Another (I) Director of considerable experience and sound judgment, Mr. F. Grainger, tdso retires reaching age limit at the end of the current Half Year. First elected 1927 " in he had to resign in 1930on being appointed Trading but was re-elected as an employees' 8.Kb r, representative iu 1938. serving as President in 1940-42. Always capable of giviag an orighmf approach to a problem once he had considered the matter, he gave his views regardless of whether they pleased or and could more than hold own his in debates. Mr. Grainger, whose advice and counsel was sought by many, has given vs)nable service to the build-up of the Dairy. He is at present Chairmen of tbe Eastern Co-operative Milk Trade a member of the National Milk Executive. and a member and past Chairman of the Eastern Regional Milk Trade As ~chtthttx desire to We place on record our grateful thanks for the valuahte contributions Mr. Wells and Mr. Craingm have wide gr ffiei, i tww um mg» IPBlvwm 818nk7 488kg'%APA~BLJ BJ ~8
