He said that the city could not continue to grow unlets places for people to live were provided. 'Yov. can fill a bucket of water.' he said, 'but when you pour in some more you lose the overflow." He called the attention to several in dustries that were anxious to come to this citv, but they would not make the move unles they were assured that homes could be found for their employe-;. This led to an animated discussion, and the result was that e meeting of the directors was called for today, they having dinner at Brown's restaurant, and then pro ceeded to take the necessary steps to ward orsraniizing a builders' asocia tion. "Some time a so the directors at tempted to organize such an associa tion but it was permitted to go to sleep, but now it promises to develop into something tangible. At the meet ing today articles of incorporation were adopted, of which the following is the substance: "The name of the corporation will be the Home Builders' association of Nebraska City and the nature erf the business to be transacted by said corporation shall be the building of houses for residence purposes, in Ne braska City and vicinity, and to pro vide an easv manner for those who are unable to buy homes to acquire the same bv purchase, lease, ex change or otherwise, and to sell, con vey, mortgage or lea.se and otherwise dispose of any real or personal prop erty so acquired. aTtol take security on any property so sold for the un paid part of the purchase price thereof by mortgage or otherwise. and to arrange for the payment of any balance due thereon on such terms and conditions as may be nec essary, expedient, or advisable.'
