The annual meeting of Home Inde

holders was held In the Central ex
change offices yesterday afternoon,
and as a result of It, a new policy has
been adopted by the company, com
prised almost entirely of local people.
With one or two exceptions the old
officers were re-elected. W. J. Church,
formerly vice-president and a director,
Is now succeeded by J. L. Caviness, In
the first-named office. The newly
elected slate follows:
W. H. Bohnenkamp, president; J. L
Caviness, vice-president; S. D. Crowe,
secretary-manager; Charles H. Button
superintendent of Union county; Har

Of chief Interest to the public Is the
expansion policy adopted. From It
present capital stock of $75,000, the
homo company will expand to $100,000
at once, and the Investing public will
be given a chance to take up some of
the new stock, on a dividend-paying

Meetings Continue.
Quite a gain in attendance marked
the special services In Central Church
last evening. The illustrated sermon
on "The Five Kingdoms" was very
tercstlng and was well received. Each
person could readily locate himself as
to where he Is living and also answer
In the light of the Scriptures where he
will go at the close of this life, pro
vided he makes no change In manner
of living. "The wages of sin Is death,
but the free gift of God Is eternal life
In Jesus Christ, our Lord." Those who
are accountable for their choice and
neither Infants nor Insane persons are
either in the kingdom or sin or in
Christ's kingdom. The kingdom of
sin opens Into eternal punishment. One
may pass out of the kingdom of sin
by becoming a Christian. Conversion;
turning to Ood Is necessary. People
