...officers of the Co-operative Society deserve the thanks of their patrons, not only for making such an excellent financial record in a year of commercial weakness, but also for maintaining its excellence of service in many directions. Such a store, responsive to the ever-changing demands of a transitory public, has a very difficult place to fill. We believe that the Co-operative is operated with as little friction and with as much satisfaction to its customers as are possible in the circumstances...
