Reductions at Lutana
The Company has written to the Co-operative Council advising, for the information of the Co-operative Houses Trustees, that approval has been given for a very substantial reduction in the rents of the various houses at Lutana.
Houses are now available at the extremely low rental of:---
Five rooms.---Sixteen shillings per week.
Four rooms.---Fourteen shillings per week.
Five rooms (two storey).---Twelve shillings per week.
The cottages, built on ample blocks of land, are sewered, well drained, and fitted with many modern conveniences, and were specially designed for the use of Zincworkers.
The very low rents should provide an opportunity for employees to start a Savings Bank Account.
A bus service has been inaugurated between Lutana and Hobart, and full houses will materially assist its continuation and improvement.
If you are looking for a better house at a cheaper rent see the Secretary of the Co-operative Council.
Mr. Syd. Harper has build a cupboard under the stage of the Hall for storing new equipment in.

Lutana Free Kindergarten has now reached the end of its second year, and the Committee has endeavoured to carry on the programme which was arranged during the previous year, as far as keeping interest and raising funds were concerned. The programme of activities for the children has, of course, been varied and progressive under the capable care of Miss Rowlands, Miss M. V. Trappes, Misses Burrows, Sole, Piesse, Roberts, Schaedel, Loney, and other students. While a nice lot of new equipment has greatly helped.
Owing to several of the old Committee moving to distant places we found it necessary to appoint several new members at our last Annual Meeting; and for the same reason it will again be necessary to nominate more this year, but we hope that all of those who are left and have so ably and willingly helped so far will still be heading our report next year. We deeply regret the loss of those who have left.
We started the year last July with 45 children on the register, and in November reached the high figure of 60. But after vacation, many little ones were admitted at the State School at 5 years old, and so our numbers decreased to 24. Since then it has gradually risen to 41 in May, and will probably increase when warmer weather comes.

Although the revenue shows a falling off, many enjoyable functions have been held in the Hall. The Lutana branch of the Free Kindergarten continues its success, and is well supported.
