Grocer Comes Before Garage

FOURTH. None Of our associates enter
tanned in class with us. We were
locally famous for doing things correctly,
decently, and in order We always had
"the extra touch, which-byw of moral
izing-always means an extra touch.
Our printing bill was large. We We're
kind to the caterer, too. We helped the
florist maintain himself, with genial
smiles for us. We were strong on fancy
groceries, But the butcher and baker
We're left unpaid!
So we changed our course. Little by
little we surprised ourselves by self
denials. We are not racing our neigh
bors any more. People have forgotten
to compliment our clever dinners and
distinctly different parties. We are hos
ptable, hope, but with a more whole
some brand of hospitality.
And it's great to be even with the world!
1t is like an immortars tonic to get a
receipt and know that you have been
manly and womanly and worthwhile.
Sacrificing begins to take on a sort of
domesticated glamour. The automobile
can wait. The grocer must be paid before
the corner garage makes money. Even
old clothes rest rather comfortably on
buoyant shoulders.

How We Got Ourselves

THIS bit of practical method is not

success. But the message is there.

are rarer far than the proverbial days
of June.
True, an occasional statement of our
account marred the absolute serenity of
home JOY; but the first of the month
soon GIBBS out into those glorious bill
proof days. Undisturbed, we little needed
our danger.
But finally terse note from col
lection agency gave us cold chills. How
did we go about to secure a remedy?
We began by nibbling at them-the big
bills. We paid off $500 note by com
polling ourselves boldly to hand over
twenty-five dollars every month. The fur
niture bill we faced at the rate Of five dol
lars month.
We kept right after those debts. And
fives and tens will eventually pay off any
thing-even plumber.

Nibbling at the Big Bills

SECOND. We had known some bills
- We're large, and therefore left them
absolutely alone in their glory. No month
ever came when we felt free to say, Now

The Awakening

ABOUT fourteen months ago we sud-
denly awoke to the fact that we were
running farther behind every month. The
revelation sickened and distressed us. We
were then about twelve hundred dollars
in absolute debt.
Pancky-and, fear, simpering-I
strove to find larger salary in another in
stitution. Failing, | rushed to this friend
and that, only to find that money in
our community was air-tight and chained
in addition.
Then | faced the situation somewhat
squarely, and with brave wife started
in to reduce expenses and "pay Off Our
methods are so simple that you may
scoff at them. But they worked with
as. They have paid off a huge amount of
debt; at least, huge to us. BY the same
methods one may accumulate funds.

We Tackle the Small Bills

THIRD. We knew we had small raft
of small debts. We owed one jeweler
eight dollars, and promptly changed shops
to keep from annoyance. We owed eight
here, six-thirty here, seven-twenty at an
other shop.
Being cultured and not wishing to
offend. we slid by these merchants or,
like the Levite, more often passed by
on the other side Now walk straight
past these same stores and their owners.
We quit shamming. We borrowed
large amount of money-large for
us-and paid off all the tag-end, no.
account bills.

We Get Our Change

FIRST. We were ordering by tele-
phone. We had one dry-goods bill
of $S1 which we supposed was about
500 We had grocery bill Of SllO
which | honestly thought was about
$40 or $50. Not being pressed, we had
allowed the butcher to credit us to the
amount of S75.
You see, we are reputable citizens.
We are church folk. Sometime they
will pay up!' sang the chorus in their
varied stores; and they allowed the tele-
phone to keep adding to our misery.
How did we meet the telephone imp?
Well, my wife says, kindly send us u
tifty-cent pork roast and change for a
dollar!' We send our maid with cold
cash when we wish to buy anything at
the dry-goods store. We have slain that
abominable little insect!

| WORKING FOR PEACE

Washington. April 27,--Ambassa-
dor Won Bernstorff here and Ambas-
sador Gerard In Berlin are doing
their utmost today to prevent a rup-
ture between the United States and
Germany In discussing Bernstorif's
attitude. one Official said;
There is no question that Bern
storff is anxious to avoid a diplo-
matte break. He will do all possible
to continue friendly relations. He
has done so In the past. He is In
the very hardest kind OF a position
but his work is appreciated"
As long as Bernstorif is trying
TO meet President Wilson's views, II
Is believed unlikely that the execu-
tive will demand any greater haste
or take any action for the present
which might embarasss him.
Comment In the German press Is
so divided that It Is clear that an
understanding of the German POSI-
tion Is not yet to be obtained.

Berlin, April 27.-The crisis be-
