SETTLE.
Don’t put if off. Debts grow like bad habits.
Denton Retail Merchants’ Credit Association.
*
Your credit—bad today—by prompt paying and a
disposition to do the right thing will make it good to-
morrow.
CO-OPERATION among the merchants in reporting
cases of this kind has HEDGED THE DEBT DODGER.
HONEST FOLKS WELCOME RATINGS,
eat ones dodge ratings.
If you are “in bad’’—lay your plans—grit your
teeth and get down to PAYING YOUR HONEST OBLI-
GATIONS.
The merchant who intrusted you with his goods
last month EXPECTS A SETTLEMENT NOW.
BEING THE THIRTEENTH AND CONTINUATION OF A SERIES OF TALKS ON BILLS AND THE PROMPT PAYMENT OF THEM.
This co-operation has also helped the
PERSON.
Your credit—good today
row.
OLD DEBTS besmirch honor. To be able to carry
your purchase out of a store without paying cash is a
compliment to you. The merchant thought you were
honest—and he'll tell other folks you are honest until
you prove yourself otherwise.
DEADBEATS at one time were treated as honest
men. They had the benefit of the doubt—but they fail-
ed to live up to what was expected of them.
When you do NOT PAY your bills you are reported
and credited in the future accordingly. When you DO
PAY YOUR BILLS you are also reported and credited
accordingly.
DON’T PUT OFF UNTIL TOMORROW. There ia
only one way to get out of debt—and that’s to BEGIN
NOW.
Regardless of character and without a sense of hon-
or they decided to take the path of the crook and the
thief—to obtain goods without paying for them. They
succeeded for a while—but now their ROAD IS A HARD
ONE.
They are no longer trusted. Their word stands
for naught. Their “promise to pay’’ is an empty one.
You are judged by your rating, which is a record
of your past performances in “making good" on your t
promises to pay.
As failure to PAY YOUR BILLS takes away from
your credit, so prompt paying of them adds to your
credit.
When you bought—it was understood that you
would SETTLE when your bill was presented.
