“...Newsletter. No. 7.
AUGUST, 1933

FROM THE EDITOR TO YOU.
Seven—the number of this issue of our Newsletter—is often regarded as a perfect number, a distinction to which we can hardly lay any claim ! Not that we would wish to do so ! A state of perfection, it seems, might be rather dull, and has an implication of finality about it.

May we rely on YOU ?

The expenses were kept down to a minimum, and it was possible to reduce the levies payable by Branches. Moreover, our cash position has been eased through the sale of the typewriter, and the receipt of life subscriptions, so that we are well able to meet our liabilities.
In our own Branch account it is gratifying to see an increase in the subscriptions of nearly £9, and it is in this connection that each member can greatly assist the Association by seeking to increase our membership. It is important to bear in mind that the cost of printing our Newsletters is relatively heavy, but that the...”
