February 21 to 26, inclusive, will be pay-up week all over this country, and every citizen is presumed to walk in to his creditors and square up his ac- counts. The good citizen will do this if it is within the bounds of reasonable possibility. The man who fails to square up be- cause he doesn't care is not worthy of further credit and should not receive it. Business men are not allowed by their creditors to wait until February 21 or 26. They must forward their checks every thirty days or their credit is shut off. 1t therefore becomes a great hard ship to the business man when he IS compelled to pay his own bills promptly and yet is required to carry the accounts of hun dreds of people for indefinite periods. We have a lot of faith in our people and we believe they will walk right up and square up their little accounts between the 21st and 18th, and we don't for one minute think they. will forget the editor in their rounds. We have faith that this will be one time when they will not forget to think
