CORRESPONDENCE
from: Ruth Meechan, Haney, B.C,

Dear Fotters:

I hope you have all been pondering Charmian Johnson's
suggestions about opening a retail outlet of our own in Vancouver.

There are so many of us depending on our pottery for
a living; there are so many of us producing good pottery - there are so
many of us - and not one fully satisfactory outlet.

I am sure we could do it though there would be plenty of
problems and even more work, We have shown in the Hycroft sale that
we can work together and that there are those amongst us with
organizational ability.

Location would, of course, be our first problem. Not only
where, but how do we pay the rent for the first few months? Should we
consider selling memberships (to those whose pottery has been passed
by a jury) in order to have some capital to tide us over the first few
months ?
