The capital value of the funds of the District increased during the period under review by £777 2s 5d, representing an improvement on the previous year of £57 15s 4d. The sick and funeral fund was also in a very satisfactory position, the amount standing to its credit having been increased by So also £774 6s 9d to £13,888 3s 7d. was the D.M.R. fund, the debit of £252 9s., as at 31st.

The President continued: "The outcome of the special District meeting held on June 19th last year, concerning the D.M.R. fund, was that the District Board was instructed to appoint a committee during the y.

A consequential amendment will be the abolition of the D.M.R. fund altogether. The District Board and committee, with the very able assistance of Bro. Sheedy, of Maylands Branch, devoted considerably time and care to this important matter, and endeavour. ed from the outset to overcome the objection that has always been raised to the abolition of this fund, that such abolition would inflict an injustice on the older members, who have paid into it for so many years. As a result of

the committee's inves'gfttions the Registrar of Friendly Societies was prevailed upon to authorize a flat rate of 2/3 per member per quarter being struck on all present members of the society in order to increase the funeral or death benefit from £20 to £50." The membership of the society had increased during the year, and I am very pleased to say tc 1,095, being an increase of 30 on the previous year. The Subiaco Branch deserved to be complimented on its excellent progress; some branches instead of increasing, have gone back, and delegates were exhorted to see that each branch endeavour to increase and not w its membership to go back. He .aped that delegates will go back from eeped the Conference to their branches with renewed vigor and zeal, so as to put the society in the position it should attain in this State.

A very important step of the Board esiring the year was the inauguration of the Metfopolitein Social an' Sports 2ommittee.

After lengthy discussion the Distr et Board's proposal was accepted by the Conference, 'and will in due course become law. It is felt that the amendment will prove a boon to the so- lets' and its members, and will have the effect of eliminating what has been a constantly recurring cause of troub'e to the society. As a result of the deliberations of the Conference, the Management Fund of the society will undoubtedly benefit to such an extent without imposing any further contributions on the members that it will immediately show a substantial credit balance, which should enable the District Board to do something in the way of organising the
