The Board of Directors decided that as certain expanditures, such as machinery, lands. and material, could be partially paid for with shares, a portion, to wit 20,000, be set aside to be used for this purpose, and while there are nius directors, yet no one had the time to give bis entire attention to the promotion of the enterprise, and that cortain personsde employed for this purpose, and coinmissions or services
rendered be also paid in shares, and further the Board of Directors have decided that subscribaen of 50 shares will get 5 premotion shares. It was not supposed that the entire amount of 20,00 would be required for this purpose, but it was set sile, and not offered for sale. The shares remaining after the concern is started are the property of the Company.
