The dues on each share of stock subscribed for by a stockholder shall continue to be paid by the stockholder to the association until the share has been duly withdrawn, cancelled, or forfeited or until the share has reached its matured value; that is to say, when the dues paid on each share and the net earnings thereof in accordance with the by-laws shall amount to the matured value of the share, but such association may issue and sell paid-up stock for each and also investment stock to be paid in installments. and may pay to the holders of such paid-up stock out of the net profits such rates of dividends as may be fixed from time to time by the board of directions of the association, which shall be expressed in the stock certificates and shall not participate further in the profits or accretions of the association. Paid-up stock issued after the date when this Act shall become effective shall not be entitled to vote he dividends payable upon such paid-up stock shall not be cumulative in the sense of being a charge upon the future earnings of the association should the earnings of the association not be sufficient in any particular year to meet the dividend requirements of such stock in that year. Either paid-up or investment stock may be surrendered by the holder at any time upon the giving of such notice as the association may require.
