Good 1idrice to Those Who Are Careless
-abo"t Their Erpexses-TAe advantages of
Cash Basis
(Catholic Citizen.l
If everybody paid their debts every
business in this country would be lucra-
tive, and honest people would not have to
pay so much for what they buy. If your
grocer had no debts to look out for. he
could content himself with smaller profits.
Most failures are due to worthless credits
which can never be realized upon.. Col
lection agencies alone get an idea of the
vast number of people in this country who
go.throughlife living on the sweat of other
peoples brows.
The habit of not paying as you 90 in
creases with the practice. People think
they must have what their neighbors have,
and they recklessly go in debt for it with
out rejecting that, perhaps, their neigh
bors have larger incomes than they have.
Once IN debt they find it difficult to re-
trench, and the business Of debt-making is
carried on until it grows impossible TO
pay what Is due. Then people fall back
on their good intentions; they would pay
but for the fact that they have no money;
they are "unfortunate;;'' lack has gone
against them, etc.
1t Is good practice for young people
starting out in life to live upon strictly
cash basis. If you cannot pay for some
extra convenience do not contract for it,
II you have not enough money to buy
clothes, don't buy them at ALL Old clothes
and self-respect are warmer and more
comfortable than showy garments that are
not paid for. In addition to this, it is we'll
to bear in mind tho good old maxim of
Franklin shat nothing is cheap which
We do not need"
In some way the man who owes a debt
which he is not honestly striving TO pay,
has lost portion Of his self-respect which
he can never recover. He may feel very
indifferent about it. He may even take q
diaboiical pleasure in leading his creditor
futile chase after it, but the fact remains
that there is debt on his life account not
paid up, and he cannot help feeling
unpleasant about it. Six years
will outlaw the account and
| remove his liability in court of law, but
no statute in limitations runs against his
| conscientious duty to pay it up to the last
| cent sometime. Indebted persons have ex-
perienced kind of relief when, through
some accident or inducement, they have
paid OF an account they had no intention
of paying. This elevation of spirits shows
that the owing of debts has a depressing
| influence even on the most hardened per
| sons.
