' our management wishes to thank you members and customers who by your patronage have enabled the Co-op store to show a 23 % gain in volumn for the 2nd three month period of this year over the 1st period. This is also a more than 27% gain over the second period of 1939. This gain has b?en reflected in a very substantial net saving and improved financial condition of the store since the store expenses were not increased. Keep up the good work. It will pay you well to support your own store.
