A recommendation from the board of directors that 5 per cent be paid on both share, capital and patronage dividends. with the furth- er recommendation that this money be applied to share capital, was approved by the meeting. For the year ending January 30, 1954, the financial statement show- ed that total net sales were $508.- l22.58; gross profit, $82,039.24; and net profit, $19,918.58. The meeting, which took the form of a dinner banquet was pre- sided over by the president, Mr. Brenton Clark, who, in his report to the meeting noted that sales had increased over the previous year by more than $70,000 and he reviewed the activities of the var- ious departments of the store. In discussing the fruit department he expressed dissatisfaction with the quality of the fruit that was being offered for sale in this Province. and suggested that the companies concerned might not be buying the best that was available. Feed Sales Down He noted that feed sales were down from the previous year and said this was due to the fact that more farmers were buying concen- trates and mixing them with home grown grains. Grocery sales of almost $250,000 was the largest sales department. and others in order of sales were meat. feed. 995%, fruit, and equip- ment. Three of the four directors were re-elected to the board for a period of three years. They are: Brenton Clark, Vernon Matthew, and James Marchbank. The newly elected dir- ector is Wymarl Cairns. At a meeting of the directors im- mediately following the annual meeting Messrs: Brenton Clark, Al- . lison Profitt. and Vernon Matthew were re-elected to the offices of president, vice-president, and sec- retary-treasurer. respectively. Two representatives of the ex- tension department of St. Francis Xavier University were present at the meeting together with five young men from various parts of Canada and United states. whose work in the field of co-operative endeavor will soon take them W widely separated parts of the world in an endeavor to raise the stand- ard of living in those countries. Rev. Father MacKinnon, direc- tor of the University's extension department referred to the ap- parent lack of problems in the Summarside organization, and said “if the principles of c0-o_p€1'a- tion are followed there will be znc problems." But he pointed out i that while the co-op movement can get along without educational pro- jects for a time, "it cannot get along without it for a very long period." suggesting that the mem- bers keep the business efficient and on a sound basis he said. "co-, operation is more than store keep-i lng. It is a way of life that has brought together people who had previously had many differences. The oo—opeatlve movement." he concluded, "is n way of life which gives us the chance to put into Reporls Successful Year Al Meeting practice the virtues of charity and Justice." Mr. Alex Laidlaw. assistant dir- ector of the extension department, paid tribute to the large num- bar of women present, and sug- gested the organization study the system of joint lnembe Lip for man and wife. “We will not suc- ceed in this co-operative move- ment," he said, "unless we have the wholehaesrted co-operation and participation of the women." He expressed great satisfaction in financial position of the Summer- sids organization which, he be- lieved, has the highest member equity in the busines of any co- op organizatlon in this part of Canada. Mr. Jerome O'Brien. manager of Island Co-op Services, had very encouraging words of congratulat- ions for the way in which the Summerside organization has pros- pered, and indicated that the 0:- ganlzation at Suinmerslde may soon expand into the potato shipping industry. Thousands of sacks of potatoes, he said, will be going to a. oo-op- erative conce:rn in Florida this year. and it was possible that most of them would be moving through the port of Summerslde. ly at the meeting were Messrs. 'Wm. Hayward. manager of the Bank of Nova Sootia in Summer- side; Leo Corcoran, of the Co-op- erative Union of Prince Edward Is- land: Rod Macllevin, manager of the Summerside Co-Operative As- sociatlon: Charles Yea.

Mr. Abbott hints you may have had something to do with his lifting the 15-per-cent excise tax on furs. The finance minister said in an address prepared for delivery Wednesday night at the fur fashion show that since Korea the policy has been to retain the tax on goods that are not essential. “But it has forcefully been drawn to my attention. by author- itative domestic sources to which I usually give heed, that a fur coat is not a luxury. it is a nec- essity. “While I am not entirely pre- pared to admit that fur coats are a necessity of life for one half of adult Canadians during one half of the year, I will admit that a lot of people think so. or have been persuaded to agree that it is so." However, he said, fur workers unions had told the government that almost three-quarters of the fur garments sold in Canada are bought by married and single women in the lower and medium income groups. - ROMANTIC HISTORY "My interest in your industry is not confined, however. to making tax and tariff cuts.
