REVIEW AND HERALD STOCKHOLDERS, ATTENTION!
By JNO. I. GIBSON
The directors wish to call the attention of the stockholders to the notice of the annual meeting of the association, which appears on this page. Every shareholder who wishes to be represented, and who can not attend the annual meeting, should write at once to the undersigned for blank proxy forms, which will be supplied promptly. It will facilitate the work of the secretary, and save time at the annual meeting, if all those who purpose issuing proxies will kindly do so, and forward them to the secretary, as soon as possible, so that they may be duly filed. The filing of proxies is made obligatory by Section VI of the Statute, which reads as follows: “Stockholders may appear and vote in person, or by proxy duly filed with the secretary.” There are a large number of old unrevoked proxies on file, made out, several years ago, to persons who formerly resided in Battle Creek, but who have gone elsewhere, and can not attend the next stockholders’ meeting. All such useless proxies should be revoked by the stockholders who issued them, and new proxies made out to some one who purposes being present at the annual meeting on March 26. Please note that proxies issued by the shareholders of a religious institution are exempt from the war tax of ten cents. JNO. I. GIBSON, Sec.
