You're to Blame
XATHEN you ask for credit at store and are
W. informed that you can't have it-DON'T
~ BLAME THE MERCHANT.
There is no one to blame but yourself. YOU
MAKE YOUR OWN CREDIT and whether it is
good or bad, it stands a monument to your et-
forts.
Remember, your credit is based upon HOW
YOU PAY YOUR BILLS. If you pay them prompt
ly, you deserve credit and you getit If don't pay
them, you don't deserve credit, and YOU DON'T
GET IT-but whether you get credit or not DE-
PENDS ABSOLUTELY UPON YOU AND
YOU ALONE.
If your credit is not good-YOU ARE A DEAD
BEAT. When you don't pay your bills you are
class thief You lied merchandise and by
lying getting merchandise under false pretense
and in stripes and behind the bars
YOU ARE AN ENEMY TO SOCIETY You are dangerous and
discredi to the community in which you live
But YOUR status of making. rotten place
your somewhere you be watched and CAN'T BE
TRUSTED.
But don't blame the merchant-it's not his fault

TRIDAY was the first of the month.
On that day, all the bills you have incurred
since the first of last month became due-un-
less arrangements have been made to the contrary
You who made purchases last month and had
them charged on open account are now expected
TO PAY.
Remember, the merchant MUST PAY HIS
BILLS, and he can't unless you pay yours. Expect
ing him to carry you two three four months is
imposing upon his confidence in you.
He extended you credit as convenience and
you should not inconvenience him now by not pay
ing promptly. And you do when you don't pay. 4
He believed you honest fair and worthy of his confidence
Are you going let him show that he mistaken and that
you are DISHONEST, UNFAIR AND UNWORTHY? And
then will you have enough back later and
more credit?
It's how you PAY YOUR BILLS TODAY that determines
your rating for It's how you paid your bills yes
terday THAT GIVES YOU YOUR RATING TODAY
To yourself your honor and your integrity you should
PAY YOUR BILLS PROMPTLY.
