sufficient for all its members plus a reasonable number of extras
for recruiting more members into the club. No charge is made for
these and the newsletter is issued quarteriy.

club members may be pensioners. However, it is hoped that financially
able club members will join the Federation as direct members also in
order to support its work, Many do this -- please draw it to the
attention of your members. Some clubs allow a rebate of part of
the club fees where this is done,

Club fees of fifty cents per adult club member (two fees
for a couple) are payable by Mar. 3lst of each year for that year,
However, the count on which these are paid is the number in your
Club at Dec, 3lst of the previous year since your actual membership
will not be well know in March. No fees are payable by a club in
the first year in which they join the Federation unless they wish to
do so voluntarily.
