JOHN ISMAY AND SONS.

At the recent Annual General Meeting of John Ismay and Sons Ltd., the Chairman, Mr. John Ismay, was able to present a very satisfactory Report, stating, among other things, that the company had disposed of some of its investments and had strengthened the cash position. Sales both at home and abroad of the company's lamps increased greatly, though, on account of competition, the increase in profits was moderate.
