recorded may be considered a cer- taln sign of appreciation from our many patrons. It is anticipated') that this branch of the Bakery De- partment will develop into an ex- cellent source of revenue:

The.Management has endeavour- ed to maintain the high quality of food and service t your Com- pany's Rostanrant, and it is pleas- ing to note the increasing popular- ity this deportment enjoys.

Under the name of "King's Rej- taurant a branch department was opened in March this year in the King's Theatre Building, and is showing a very promising turnover. The Cake Shop which was opened In the

same building about the same time is also showing gratify- ing results.

Our Depot and Garage at the Penk is continuing to give satis2 factory service to our clients, and I am pleased to inform you that our Moter Department has been reorganised. At our Service Du-

pot at Crosa Lane we can offer car owners first class repair service.

I should like to take this oppor- tunity of expressing the thanks and appreciation of the Directors and shareholders for the excellent work done by the staff during the year.

I now beg, to propose that the report and accounts for the year ended February 28, 1931, as pre- vented, be adopted, and shall be glad if some shareholder wil second the proposal. When this has been done I shall be pleased to answer any question sharehold- ers may wish to ask.

Mr. H. B. L. Dowbiggin, O.B.E., anid:-

We have listened to the Chair- man's speech with interest; and 'n study of the accounts as act before us shows us very fully the posi- tiop of the Company,

is a matter of congratulation that the Company now owns it own building, and this important factor will reflect to our advantage in succeeding years' accounts.

Some shareholders may regret that no dividend has been paid this year, but, in view of the great change. In the Company's affairs through the purchase of Exchange Building, and the uncertain .condi- tions of world trade and that of: China in particular, I feel sufe that the policy of the Directors in allowing for such ample deprecia- } tion and the application of $30,000 towards General Reserve, is the must meet with

correct one and our approval.

I trust that their new ventures
