The new buildings which house offices, store and warehouse are located on Davidson Drive at the north limits of the village. The street is named in memory of the late, Malcolm , Daividson, a devoted director of the group who met his untimely death several years ago. The ribbon cutting duties were handled by Bert Klopp , who served for 30 years as secretary of the organization as well as managing the Zurich branch for many years. He was assisted by president Delbert Geiger and Julian Smith of United Co-Operatives of Ontario, Also in attendance were Huron MPP Jack Riddell, Doug Jamieson of Centralia College" and Reeves Anson McKinley, Stanley.

A large conference table sits' in the centre of the room, with chairs surrounding it for the board meetings. Total cost of the new building is approximately $109,000 which includes store fixtures, office furnishings, etc. The general contractor, Con-Eng Contractors of London, began working on the project in October, and the of- ficial move into the new premises was made on February 6. The new facilities are located on close to seven acres of property purchased by the Co-Op from Earl Soldan, just north of the village limits. Purchase of the property was made in 1968, and the new building has been under discussion for almost two years before a final decision to proceed was made: Also located on the same property are a couple of fertilizer storage sheds, as well as the petroleum storage tanks. Just south of the new facilities are the grain and bean elevators which the Co-Op purchased in 1968. Business in 1973 was the best ever for the Hensall Co-Op with total sales of $5,970,954 and a net savings before patronage returns of $165,945.. . The ii3Arg,g ,.directors at the annual meeting Wednesday night at the Pineridge Chalet declared Smiley — Continued from Page 4 great scramble for the buck that has changed drastically. That's the relationship with the people working for the big dealers. In the bad old days, when laissez-faire reigned supreme, it was the accepted custom to grind the worker down, and sweat the 'very life-blood out of him, to wring the last cent of profit. Today the worm has turned, particularly in sports. All you need, if you're a pretty good athlete, is a good lawyer, and you can put the boss through the wringer. Can you imagine the look on the face of J.P, Morgan if someone could tell him that athletes, mere bodies, were pulling in salaries in six figures? This last aspect would seem to be a matter for sheer joy for most of us—watching the bosses being squeezed by the workers. But alas. It won't do us any good, fellow sucker. The boss will merely raise the price of ad- mission and won't lose a nickel of his own money. Sounds like the government, doesn't it, When everything costs them more, they raise our taxes to pay for the increases. When everything costs us more, they raise the taxes as a curb against inflation, Get in line, sucker, for the next increase in the price of tickets, Somehow, with all their faults, I like the old bandits better. a 31/2 percent patronage dividend on all member purchases, all member deliveries of cash grains to the Hensall elevator and a 31/2 percent cash bonus on all em- ployee wages. In 1936 a group of farmers in this area decided to establish a fertilizer mixing station in Hensall, beside the railroad track. After operating this mi*ing station for two years, a Co-operative Company was formed in 1939, with a charter under the name of South Huron Farmers Co-operative. The first board of directors were President, Albert Hen- ' drick; secretary, T.N. Forsyth; directors E.B. Horner, James Wright, A.B. Bell, William Bell, John C. Bell and William Alexander. The profit and loss statement for that year shows total sales of $17,251.77 and a net saving of $1,471.12.
