New, Zealand

register be kept. "' '-'-•" ; '- 3rd It is intended that the Head Office of • the Bank.sh'all be,in;D.a.uedini;.and;ithat a General M-inager of high professional standing shall be appointed to guide the operations of'tbe Bank; and also that a Board of qualified Directors shall be elected from among the Committee to advise with the General Manager, and generally to watch-the interests of the whole institution. \
