THE PRESENT BOARD.
The members of the present board have served Co-operation well
in many capacities, and several of them have had long years of
service on the board of the Baking Society. Mr Buchanan, the present
chairman, for instance, was elected to the board of the Society in the
year in which Mr Bain became secretary. Mr M‘Lean has represented
Glasgow Eastern Society for many years, and Mr Young St Rollox for
a long period. Mr Monteith had done good work in St George Society
before he came to M‘Neil Street, while this is equally true of Mr
M‘Lay’s connection with Cowlairs. Mr Hamilton was for a number of
years the representative of Pollokshaws Society, and his untimely
death while this book was being written served to act as a reminder
that “life is but a fleeting vapour.” Another member of the group who
has done good service to Co-operation in his own society as well as in
the Baking Society’s board is Mr Cadiz, for a number of years the
energetic secretary of the Glasgow and Suburbs Conference
Association. Mr Johnstone has done good service in Shettleston
Society, and Mr Simpson in London Road Society; while Mr Walker,
the “baby” of the board—he only joined it two months before the end
of the fiftieth year—has been well known for a number of years as a
representative of Clydebank Society.
Nor can we close this record of “men who wrought” without
reference to some of the men who, while not quite so prominent in
its affairs as others, yet had something to do with shaping the
destinies of the Society. Prominent amongst such was Mr Alexander,
who represented Paisley Provident Society on the board from the
election of Mr Brown as president until their society withdrew from
the Federation. For the greater part of the time he acted as treasurer
of the Federation. Mr Ballantyne, of Thornliebank, also was one of
the earliest members of the board, and continued to be associated
with its work, as stable inspector, for many years. The late Mr James
M‘Murran, of Glasgow Eastern, was the Federation’s last treasurer,
the office being abolished during his tenure. Nor must the names of
the late Homer Robertson and Michael Shiels be omitted. For a
number of years Mr Robertson represented St George Society on the
board, while Mr Shiels was for long the representative of Cowlairs
Society, and both gentlemen died in harness within a few months of
each other. For a long time two gentlemen very well known in
another section of the Co-operative movement, Messrs Robert
Macintosh and Allan Gray, acted together as auditors of the Society.
Mr Wells, the respected secretary of Cambuslang Society, was an
auditor of later date, retiring when the amended Industrial and
Provident Societies Act of 1913 made it compulsory that auditors of
Co-operative societies must be public auditors. He was succeeded by
Mr John M. Biggar. The auditor who has served the members of the
Society for the longest period, however, is Mr William H. Jack, who
has audited the Society’s books for over twenty-one years, having
been elected in September 1897 on the retiral of Mr Allan Gray.
The work of many others, who in one way and another helped
while they could, has gone to build up the Society. They are gone,
leaving often not even a name behind them, but the result of their
labours is preserved as by a monument in the strong, virile Society of
which we speak so familiarly as “The U.C.B.S.”
STATISTICS.
In general readers do not care much for statistics, but no record of the Society would be complete
which did not give in some statistical form the growth which the Society has made during fifty years. The
table given is not long, however, nor is it difficult to follow. It gives the position of the Society at the end
of the first year, and at the end of each tenth year thereafter. In addition there are given the first
balance-sheet issued by the Society and that issued for the 200th quarter. Readers can thus see for
themselves the marvellous growth which we have tried, however inadequately, to picture.
