Pres. Moore — I 'will appoint Mr. 

 York, Mr. Bowen and Mr. Pyles as the 

 Auditing Committee. 



Pres. Moore — ^We will now have the 

 financial report from the Secretary, 

 Mr. Stone. 



Mr. Bowen — ^I move that this report 

 be referred to the Auditing Committee. 



Mr. Stone — If I read this report here, 

 the meeting will get placed before 

 them an itemized account of what they 

 are spending money for. 



Mr. Bowen — ^Do you mean to say 

 that the Treasurer does not know 

 about the matter you refer to in this 

 report? 



Mr. Stone — No, sir; not until the end 

 of the vear. 



Mr. Bowen — ^Very well, then you had 

 better read it. 



Pres. Moore^The Secretary pays the 

 moneys out of current funds as he gets 

 them in, and charges them to account. 



Mr. Stone — I could advance nearly 

 $100 to run the expenses, and turn 

 the money over to the Treasurer and 

 make demand for money .40 times a 

 year. I spoke of that in session once, 

 and said that if it were demanded of 

 me, that I turn in the money as soon' 

 as I get it, I would not act as Secre- 

 tary. 



Mr. Diebold^ — ^If there is any balance 

 left after you pay the bills you turn it 

 over to the Treasurer, according to 

 my way of thinking. 



Mr. Stone reads Sec. financial re- 

 port as follows:
