THIS HIS SOCIETY has for its object the reform of the unsatisfactory state of the Legal Profession. The want of such a Society has long been felt, and the demand for it has been rendered all the more imperative by the recent and the impending legislative changes in our judicial system. Societies for promoting these changes, as well as Societies for the amendment of the law itself, already exist. This Society, of a less ambitious character, does not seek to supersede any of the existing organisations, confining its operations to the reform of proved abuses in connection with the Profession only. Although its basis is thus restricted, it will have no lack of work to perform. Among the many subjects which engage its attention may be mentioned the following: 1. To adjust the relations of the two branches of the Legal Profession, as well inter se as in reference to the Public. 2. To protect the Legal Profession against the encroachments of unqualified persons. Members of the Legal Profession of every degree, whether Barristers-at-Law, Attorneys-at-Law, Solicitors, Special Pleaders, Conveyancers, or Proctors, and Articled Clerks, or Students of the Inns of Court, are eligible for Membership. The Annual Subscription of Ordinary Members is fixed at the almost nominal amount of FIVE SHILLINGS, to secure the adhesion of as many Members of the Legal Profession as possible. Any movement for the reform of the existing state of the Profession, to be permanently successful, must necessarily proceed from within, and secure the hearty co-operation and support of both its branches. The Annual Subscription of Vice-Presidents is ONE GUINEA. Vice-Presidents. Donors of FIVE GUINEAS are eligible as Life Any further information may be obtained from the Honorary Secretary, CHARLES FORD, Esq., at the Office of the Law Times, 10, Wellington-street, Strand, London, W.C., to whom all Communications should be addressed by Members of the Legal Profession desirous of joining the Society. Subscriptions for the current year are now payable to the Honorary Treasurer, W. T. CHARLEY, Esq., D.C.L., M.P., 5, Crown Office-row, Temple, London, E.C.; or at the Society's Bankers, Union Bank (Chancery-lane Branch).

MOST OST PERSONS ARE FAMILIAR with what is known as the "THREE YEARS' SYSTEM" of the Pianoforte Makers, by which anyone who Hires an Instrument and pays the Hire for that period, becomes the ABSOLUTE OWNER OF THE PIANOFORTE. Previously to the introduction of this plan i was almost as difficult for those of limited income to buy a good Pianoforte as tc BUY A HOUSE; and persons went on year after year, paying for the Hire of an Instrument, and expended as much money as would have bought the Pianoforte several times over. What will hold good for Pianofortes will hold good for HOUSES; and there are many who would no doubt AVAIL THEMSELVES OF THE OPPORTUNITY, if it was afforded them, of becoming THE OWNER OF A HOUSE in the same way as they have already become the owner of their pianoforte. THE DIRECTORS OF THE BIRKBECK BUILDING SOCIETY HAVE DETERMINED TO AFFORD THE SAME FACILITIES FOR PURCHASING HOUSES As now exist for Buying Pianofortes. A HOUSE being, however a more expensive article to Pur chase than a Pianoforte, the "Three Years' System" will not apply, excepting in a very few cases; so that a MORE LENGTHENED PERIOD IS NECESSARY over which the Time of Hiring must extend. In pursuance of this resolution THE DIRECTORS HAVE MADE ARRANGEMENTS WITH THE OWNERS OF HOUSES In various parts of London, and its Suburbs, by which they are enabled to afford to the Members of the Birkbeck Building Society AND OTHERS A very wide CHOICE in the SELECTION both of HOUSES and the locality in which they are situated. The Plan upon which the Directors propose to proceed is TO LET THESE HOUSES FOR A PERIOD OF TWELVE-AND-A-HALF YEARS, At the end of which time, if the Rent be regularly Paid, THE HOUSE Will become the absolute Property of the Tenant WITHOUT FURTHER PAYMENT OF ANY KIND. IN ALL CASES POSSESSION OF THE HOUSE WILL BE GIVEN WITHOUT ANY IMMEDIATE OUTLAY IN MONEY. BEYOND THIS SMALL SUM NO PAYMENT OF ANY KIND IS REQUIRED BY THE SOCIETY BEYOND THE STIPULATED RENT, WHICH MAY BE PAID EITHER MONTHLY OR QUARTERLY. THE RENT PAYABLE BY THE TENANT Includes Ground Rent and Insurance for the Whole Term. Although the Number of years for payment of Rent is fixed at 'Iwelve and-a-Half, A SHORTER PERIOD MAY BE CHOSEN AT AN INCREASED RENTAL, OR A LONGER PERIOD AT A LOWER RENTAL, The Terms of which may be ascertained on application to the Manager. THE ADVANTAGES OF THIS New System of Purchasing a House, MAY BE SUMMED UP AS FOLLOWS: 1. Persons of Limited Income, Clerks, Shopmen, and others, may, by becoming Tenants of the BIRKBECK GREAT CENTRAL WINE CELLARS, BUILDING SOCIETY, be placed at once in a position of independence as regards their Landlora. 2. Their RENT CANNOT BE RAISED. 3. They CANNOT BE TUINED OUT OF POSSESSION so long as they pay their Rent. 4. NO FEES or FINES of any kind are chargeable. 5. They can leave the House at any time without notice. rent being payable only to the time of giving up possession. 6. If circumstances compel them to leave the House before the completion of their Twelve-and a-Half Years Tenancy, they can Sub-let the House for the remainder of the Term, or they can Transfer their right to another Tenant. 7. Finally, NO LIABILITY or RESPONSIBILITY of any kind is incurred, beyond the Payment of Rent by those who acquire Houses by this New System. The BIRKBECK BUILDING SOCIETY have on their List several HOUSES, which they are prepared to LET on the TWELVE-AND-A-HALF YEARS' SYSTEM, and in many cases Immediate Possession may be obtained. The Terms on which Honses can be placed on this Register may be obtained on application to 2 FRANCIS RAVENSCROFT, Manager. |
