Cash Prizes Offered Schools

5000 as prizes has been Offered
by the Honorable j. W. Archibald
a patriotic citizen of Jacksonville
to be competed for by schools
throughout the state in selling
War Savings Stamps and in enlist
ing new savers in the thrift army
Mr.. Archibald's offer was made
at the meeting of the county chair
men in Jacksonville few days a.
go.
Mr.. Archibald has turned over
to State Director j. f. G. Griggs
his check, with the brief statement
OF how he wishes it used. 800 of
this money will be given to the
school making the largest number
OF sales between now and Jan. list,
1919. Another 800 will be given
to the school making the largest
sale per capita. This is just a
rough outline of the plan which
Will be developed in the State Di-
rector'S office, and full details of
which will be sent to all of the
schools.
In making known this generous
offer in prizes by Mr.. Archibald,
State Director Griggs stated that
those schools which have already
begun work will lose none of the
effort that they have already made
during the campaign, but they will
be given credit for all of the sales
or purchases that they have made
before this offer was put forward.
Details of the plan will be an
nounced in bulletins issued to the
schools, many of which have al
ready closed their sessions for the
spring term, but those which do
not open again until late summer
will have ample opportunity to
win one of these valuable prizes.
The money will be invested i'm
mediately insWar Savings Stamps
and will have an added value
when they are turned over to the
winners.

plying with these requirements
its stockholders shall be per-
sonally liable for all of the corpo-
ration debts, as if they were men,
bers of general partnership and
not stockholders of a corpora
ton"
After the word, "liable" should
be inserted to the extent of the
damages done the creditors
through such failure" Creditors
have a right to expect that at least
| ten per cent of the stock has been
paid in. If such has been paid in
at the time of debt, the creditor is
not damaged. The creditor has a
right to see the charter. If he is
damaged by his inability to see the
charter at the clerks office and
cannot see it at the treasurer's of
fec, he should be made to prove
his damages.
As it is now, if The lawyer who
usually gets up the charter fails to
see that the charter is recorded or
to inform the treasurer or anyone
else, a stakeholder, coming into
the corporation years afterwards,
is responsible as partner for the
debts OF the corporation. If any
business is done at all, before the
ten per cent certificate is filed, the
stockholders are forever after
wards partners. Creditors may do
business with the corporation for
many years, and, if the concern
should fail, the stockholders are
responsible as partners, for no
fault OF their own, nor for any
damage done the creditors. No
one is safe in buying any stock un-
less he knows these requirements
have been fulfilled.
1t is the most iniquitous, unjust
law ever perpetrated, No one
should be elected to the legisla-
ture, unless he pledges himself to
this legalized robbery of
stockholders. Unless
the creditor can show that he has
been damaged through the failure |
to record these requirements, all
money collected under such a, law
IS obtained without any moral
right and is legalized robbery
