POSSIBLE INCREASE
Turning again to the accounts, comparison with last year is ren- dered difficult owing to the very large difference in the rate of ex- drange between the two years which is perhaps best exemplified when say that in April 1035 we were paying 3/0d, for time, while to-day Mrs. Hitchins is giving us what think must be generally considered a very good tiffin, for about. 1/10d. The lower exchange has so increased the price of provisiona that it la questionable whether there may not have to be some small increase in the price for meals..
To commemorate their disappear- ance I ask the Club to accept from me a chair for the new bar to be called the Captain's Chair, and whenever the Captain is out at Fanling and any other member or subscriber sits. In his chair by mis- take, the penalty will be one round of drinks to all at that particular table in memory of the departed pimples. (Laughter.)
