PAYING UP
BUSINESS MEN REPORT Salts
FACTORY SETTLEMENTS
TO-DAY.

Madison collectors were out in full
force today and report a very salts
factory business along the line of
cleaning up accounts. For once in
their lives, they say, the collectors
were welcomed at practically every
place they visited. Business men
also state that many creditors called
at places of business and settled ac-
counts. Today is the first day of the
National Pay-Up festival and the
manner in which the week starts out
in Madison is very satisfactory to all
concerned. Debtors and creditors
seem to be working together in the
most generous spirit and it is pre-
dicted that by the end of the week a
large percentage of accounts in Lake
county will be satisfactorily adjusted.
