"Just Going Through a Form?"

SOME MEN regard the signing of a personal

bond as a favor. "Just going through a

form," they call it. Yet when a man asks a

friend to sign a personal bond he is really ask

ing him to assume a liability which only time can measure and which death may not end.

Bonds are a business proposition. The

proper place to go for them is a good Surety Company, where, on the payment of a small sum a bond is obtained without imposing on

friendship and without bother or worry on the

part of the attorney or his client.

Place the bonds required by your clients with the ?Ctna Casualty and Surety Company. Years of handling this sort of business has per fected ^Etna bond service, millions of assets

assure swift and sure payment when just claims arise.

All Kinds of Fidelity and Surety Bonds.

A MOST IMPORTANT DECISION

BECAUSE

a foreign corporation had not qualified to do business in the state the Supreme Court of Tennessee recently

held its individual stockholders to be liable as partners for all debts contracted by the company within the state. Against one single stockholder with property in the state it awarded recoveries totalling nearly $150,000.

The court, finding the company not quali fied to act within that state as a corporation, applied the principle that it cannot be re

cognized as having any other character than a partnership.

The Tennessee court says:

"To the same effect is the rule announced in Taylor v. Branham, 35 Fla. 297, 17 South, 552, 39 L. R. A. 362, 48 Am. St. Rep. 249;

Bigelow vs. Gregory, 73 111. 197; Loverin v. McLaughlin, 161 111. 417, 44 N. E. 99; Hill v. Beach, 12 N. J. Eq. 31; Lasher vs. Stimson, 145 Pa. 30, 23 Atl. 552; Guckert v. Hacke, 159 Pa. 303, 28 Atl. 249."

These decisions strongly emphasize the im portance of such services as The Corporation Trust Company renders to attorneys in the organization, qualification and representation of corporations.
