LOCAL NEWS.

January 10th, at the office of the
said Association will not only prove
very interesting on account of the
magnificent showing of that insti-
tuition forthe past year, but is most
important as several amendments
are proposed to the Charter. Every
shareholder is therefore urged to
be present in person, if possible,
or, if not to be represented by
proxy. Only once during the year
are they especially asked to attend
any meeting Of the Association
hence they should strive to be on
hand on this occasion. The regu-
lar meeting Of the Board of Direc-
tors Of the Iberia Building Asso-
citation will be held on Wednesday
next. This is a most important
meeting as the Board of Directors
elected to serve for the ensuing
year will organize by electing Off
GERS and selecting their depository
and official insurance agent. All
financial institutions or insurance
agencies desiring to act in either Of
these capacities should send in their
sealed applications to the board on
. that evening.
Economy Don't Mean
squeezing a cent until it is out
of shape. 1t means investing
your money to the best advantage.
There is no safer or betterinvest-
ment than real estate. If you
have only a few dollars each
month, let us buy the property
for you and we will accept week
ly, monthly or yearly install
ments in payment therefor. -
