 The chief matter before the Board at this meeting was a consideration of raising of funds for aggressive advertis- ing, but in view of the fact that the time is near for paying of taxes, and for other reasons, which were thought not favorable for such an undertaking, the recommendation of the Finance Committee that the raising of such funds should be delayed to some time in the future. was approved.
