Our National Pay-UP Week
February to 26 Is The Week Set Aside For Every body
to Get Straight With The World.

The idea of a national Pay-Up
Week, to be observed from Febru-
ary 81 to February 26, is meeting
with favor; and it is probable that
in all the states successful cam
paign will be conducted to induce
people to pay their honest debts
some tinae during those six business
days. The careless way in which
bills are allowed to go unpaid is a
serious loss and continal inconveni-
ence to creditors; and there is not
often any justification in the fl
nancial circumstances Of the debtor
for the dilatory method he practices
in regard to his monthly accounts.
Pay-Up week would be bene-
ficent institution if it succeeded in
doing nothing more than to make
heads of households realize that
they and their families are in many
cases living beyond their means, in
dulging in luXuries which their pay
envelopes do not warrant. When
the monthly collector is told to
"just leave the bill for the present, "
that bill is too likely never to come
to the surface again until his next
visit thirty days later.
The man who takes to Pay-Up
week in an honest spirit may disco
yer that he has been giving his wife
hot house flowers for an anniversary
present at the same time that he
still owes for his kitchen range or
for last winters wood. He may
find that those carelessly offered

tial payment on tie suit of clothes
for which he expects to be in debt
many months.
Depend upon it, your grocer
would rather sell you only potatoes
cabbages and get the cash for them
promptly than to sell you grape
fruit, chocolates, and stuffed olives
and wait a year for the money.
Your meat dealer would rather send
you soup bone once a week than
T-bone steak every day if the first
charge means immediate payment
and the second one the delay of
more than twelve months.
Pay-Up week for all outstanding
accounts should commend itself to
the mind of every honorable man.
If the cash is not at hand, you can
do what other honorable men do,
give we'll secured, interest-bear-
ing note. The good faith of a
delinquent customer should be put
to the test during Pay-Up week
He should give his patient creditor
compensatory paper if he can not
wipe out the account by cash pay
ments.
Even the local editor would have
better spirits and work harder to
make his, paper more newsy and
equal to your wants, if the subscrip-
tion bill was met every year instead
of hanging on for years and years
and some move away and forget
him entirely.
