The report of a sub-committee ap- pointed to consider the formation of an Australian and New Zealand Cinb was read, in which it was pointed out that at least $800 per month would be required to start the Club.

Our most ambitious undertaking was the Anniversary Day dance. This was'n very pleasant function and fair. ly well attended, but the executive felt they did not receive as much support from members as they had

The fact that

considerable amounts are still out standing for tickets has made thin, up to the present, a losing proponition financially. It was intended to holl two dances, one on the Australian Anniversary Day and one on the New! Zealand Dominion Day. Our experi- ence on the financial side makes it doubtful whether it is worth while carrying on with the iden.

The idea has been mooted for an Australian and New Zealand club and the exccutive has given this some ennsideration. So far nothing has been done.

Mr. R. J. McNell: I think it would be foolish to move in the matter, con- sidering the state of our balance

The Chairman: There has been demand for a Club from some mem- bers of the Association, who felt strongly that such a move should be made. But they do not seem to be prepared to make a deinite move themselves. If we could have a Club, I think it would be a good idea, but have never seen the possibility or feasibility of it, especially since we have been so badly dipped" over the Anniversary dance.

Mr. McNeill: We have a member- ship of 85 and there are many more Australians and New Zealanders, in the Colony. If the members got the rest of the Australians and New Zenianders hers into the Association,, perhaps by next general meeting we should be numerically strong enough to start the Club.

Personally, I have valued the honour and privilege of being your President and have appreciated the fellowakip and friendship it has brought me. I hape that, during the coming year, the affairs of the Association will prosper more than they have done under my guidance, and that the An- soclation will serve an even more useful purpose,

I would like to say how much I and the Association owe to the untiring efforts of our Secretary and Treasurer on whom most of the work has fallen.
