Change in Firm Name.

To Whom It May Concern:
By the common consent of over two thirds of the stockholders, and with the approval of the Superior Court of Santa Clara County, California, the Pacific Press Publishing Company has been merged into the Pacific Press Publishing Association, a membership corporation; and beginning Jan. 1, 1909, the business will be conducted by the new organization which has purchased the plant and assumed all the liabilities and obligations of the old company. This change has been made for the purpose of enlarging the constituency and placing the institution on a broader foundation.
The membership of the corporation, apart from the original incorporators, is composed of the following:
“Secondly: The executive committee of the Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, of the Central Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, of the North Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, of the Northern Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, and of the local conferences of Seventh-day Adventists within the bounds of the above-mentioned Union Conferences.
“Thirdly: Such of the stockholders of the Pacific Press Publishing Company as assign their stock to this Association, and who make written application for membership in accordance with these By-laws of this Association.
“Fourthly: And such of the said Seventh-day Adventists who shall be elected to membership in accordance with these By-laws.”
Mr. C. H. Jones has been elected General Manager, and the management will remain practically the same as that of the old company, and the same policy will be pursued, only on a larger scale.
Hereafter all bills should be made out and correspondence addressed to the Pacific Press Publishing Association instead of the Pacific Press Publishing Company.
This change affects the branch offices at Kansas City, Mo.; Portland, Ore.; Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, as well as the main office at Mountain View, Cal.
