Ought to Be a Pleasure to Pay Debts.

Gastonia Gazette.
AS the year draws to its close,
honest people have constant thought
of the fact that settling time is here.
They are looking after their accounts
and paying them up SO that they
may begin the New Year with clean
sheet and clear conscience. There
cannot be too much of this debt
paying sort of honesty. 1t is the
real thing. 1t doesn't deal in post
ponements and empty promises that
fool nobody and help nobody. One
OF the biggest delights an honest man
has is in paying his debts, and by
this sign one may know whether he
is honest. if he enjoys paying up at
pay time, he'll do.
