An exchange says: Pay your debts.
Business depends upon the free move
ment of money. The man who has money
and does not promptly pay his bills in
these times is more hurtful to a COM
munity than a bankrupt. Keep money
moving and good times are sure to fol-
low. Money passes from hand to hand,
and over ninety per cent. of the persons
who receive money in the cause of bust
ness promptly pay it out again. Those
who hoard money, or having it, decline
to pay their bills, are the real enemies O
business, and are the ones that make
hard times. If every person would make
a special effort in times of depression to
pay their bills, and keep afoat W h a
money there is, they will have done
their community a good act.
