I The Brecon & District Go-Operative Society, Ltd. j 11, SHIP STREET, BRECON I Does our Society charge more for goods than outside traders ? Quality for I Quality—emphatically NO. Every trader must sell one or two commodities cheaper than our Co-Opera- tive Stores, but these are Lines," and are generally well advertised. We have no lines. NOTE and consider carefully these tundamental differences:— 11 (a) The private tradesman is in business to make profit, the more profit he makes, the more successful is he considered as a business man. Our Society is in business to supply the needs of its members, and whatever profit Is made, dees not go into the pockets of the individual but is divided among the purchasing members. (b) You never know what profit is made by the private trader. We publish a balance sheet every quarter, duly audited and signed:by a Public Auditor. )t. (c) You have no control whatsoever over the profits or the quality or purity ¡ of goods supplied by the private trader. If a member with us you have absolute control over the whole busipess of the Society through a Management Committee democratically elected and responsible to you as shareholder and purchaser. For terms of membership apply to Manager or Secretary. » A A A «.*> ■ » 1 THE KINO, Castle Street, Builth Wells. GEO. M. HAND. 3 Nights Each Week, at 8 o'clock, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
