The notice shall state the time, place and purposes of the meeting.

(b) At the first meeting, or at any adjournment thereof, the incorporators shall organize by the choice by ballot of a temporary secretary, by the adoption of bylaws and by the election in such manner as the bylaws may determine, of directors, a president, a secretary, and such other officers as the bylaws may prescribe. All the officers so elected shall be sworn to the faithful performance of their duties. The temporary secretary shall make and attest a record of the proceedings until the secretary has been chosen and sworn, including a record of such choice and qualification.
