The Consumers Supply Co. Limited Co-Operation Means Live & Let Live Hanley, Sask. (Succeed Through Honesty, Industry & Persistency Good For $10.00 In Trade) In 1909 a group of men around the new town site of Hanley formed a company and in June of 1910 the Consumers Supply Company opened for business with MacBeth Malcolm as Pres. Right from the start the company ran into difficulties and when the store burnt down in January of 1912, many accusations were made which only widened the rift between the owners. It seems that very little insurance was carried and no effort was made to rebuild. No one remembers the tokens but several have been found at the site of the burnt out store as nothing has ever been built on that location. |
