City Council Grant.

We again have great pleasure in extending our thanks to the City Council for the second grant of £100 to assist the work of the Association, and also to friends who contributed to the funds. Their generosity alone enabled us to maintain our popular lectures and our own room. We believe that our work, as our report shows, justifies their support.

We have to acknowledge with grateful thanks a gift of £5 worth of books from Mr. Chas. Wells. We are pleased to say that, by arrangement with the Trades Council, a new room has been built for the local W.E.A. in the Trades Hall.

In conclusion, we have to thank the local Newspaper Press for the great assistance it has always willingly given in our work.
