Financial Report
in   Out   Balance
On hand, 3/1/41 .....    20.53
Dues......&7.50    28.03
From Chauvenet for postage due....06    28.09
One box of stencils ...... 2.50   26.34
Postage...... 4.25   22.09
Stencils used by Rothman......  .30  21.79
Envelopes...... 1.02  20.77
Account to date, June 5, 1941.

You will notice that we have come out just about even, with a profit of about a dozen stencils, since the last mailing. This is due entirely to the chance that two items were late in the last mailing, necessitating a supplemental mailing which cost the treasury nothing. At the same time the absence of those two items brought the package weight down just below the point where the high postage rates begin. Had it not been for that, the mailing postage would have cost us $6.50 instead of $2.76, and our balance would have started going down.
Notice that this balance of ours is composed of about eleven dollars in contributions. (One entire mailing was financed privately.) Note also that twelve members have already paid 75¢ dues, which gives us another $3.00 more than we should ordinarlily have.
The most we can collect in dues until the next mailing is $5.50, at the 50¢ rate. At 75¢ this would bring us $8.25. This is going to be a large mailing. It will cost about $8.00. You do not need calculus to figure it out. The last mailing is one of the cheapest we have had. It cost a little more than six dollars. Four times that is nearly twenty-five dollars. That is our total income. What are we to do when an eight or nine dollar mailing, such as this one, rolls around? What are we going to do for extras, such as postcard announcements and how about your membership cards?
The answer is obvious. Support the seventy-five cent dues.
