last has been illegal boards be ¬

cause the boards were appointed

andnot elected iThe presentboard is the selection of your ownchoice and no longer can the cry of

an illegal board be the basis ofcompiaint for the kickers Thesecond and greatest kick comesover the collection of taxes Wedo not find fault with any tax pay-

that all taxes and fines Collectedmust be paid to him and then paid

out by order of the board of trus-
