“Note on Procedure in Changing the Quorum Provision in Bylaws. If it becomes necessary to change the quorum provision in a society’s bylaws, care should be taken, because if the rule is struck out first, the quorum will instantly become a majority of the membership, so that in many cases a quorum could not be obtained to adopt a new rule. The proper procedure is to strike out the old provision and insert the new provision, which is moved and voted on as one question.”
