Oving to the fact that the ending of our financial year does not correspond with the dividend paying dates of the banks, it is impossible to give the exact amount of interest due at the time of making this report. This will adjust itself from year to year but there will always be a fraction of six mionths' interest remaining in the banks at the time of making the Annual report.
| Some of these funds, deposited during the past year have not earned the full year's interest, and one deposit of- $300.00 was received too late to be entitled to any interest for the time covered by this report.
