' 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. Cooperation really pays if properly supported and ef
ficiently operated.

Michigan-Texas Hospitality
It cost John Halmer of Pontiac,
Mich., $700 to prove to a visiting
Texan that Michigan boasts hospi
tality of a type as good as that of
Texas recently. Halmer, standing on
the street, was approached by the
Texan who complained Michigan
people were lacking in hospitality—
he couldn’t find any entertainment,
poker games and such. As they
talked another man came up an'’
asked for a match. Soon the group
was enlarged by another bystander
and the four rented a hotel room
and began playing poker. Halmer
said he got four aces, four kings,
and four queens among his first
hands and had dug deeply into the
Texan’s $4,000 bankroll before he be
gan to lose. The game ended with
Halmer’s savings of $700 gone. Mrs.
Halmer said the money was being
saved to buy a farm.
