meeting of stock holders by the
committee notices were joted

Hinshaw building. The old
committee reported and pro
posed a constitution and by laws
for the (iuild and upon the
acceptance thereof the commit

ganization under the new con
stitution wns effected. The
first step with Frank Butler
acting as chairman was to elect
a secretary to serve until Thanks
giving day, l'.iO.'J.the time set
for the annual meetings of the
Guild. Scott Leavitt was elected
secretary. Next in order came
the choosing of directors to
serve one, two and three terms
respectively. 'Am Hinshaw, F.
J. Holman and A. J. Syron
were elected. M. L. Thomson
was made treasurer and Frank
Butler was elected Auditor both

is its first object. When, within
a short time, we have a good

in organizing the present society
