Section 27, the term of the present Secretary be extended to June 1. 1911, and that June Ist of each year be made .the time for the incoming Secretary to take charge of the office. “Any ' policy holder wishing to get the benefit of the above provisions may do so by sending their policy to the Secretary with ten cents per $lO6 premium for the extra amount that if may be changed to confonn with “the amended By-Laws. Loss on personal property will be settled for on a basis of 3-4 cash value at time of loss; on buildings,the amount the policy calls for unless changed to 3|-4' instead of 3-3. w. i.
