In recommending the adoption of the new Articles the Directors have in mind the facts that the existing. Articles, which date from the year 1913, are not only old but are also out of date for practical purposes, and that it has been found in- creasingly difficult to carry on the management of the Company under them. The new Articles, if adopted will substitute a new and fuller set of regulations for an old and less. convenient set.
