GET LINE ON THE
CREDITS Of PEOPLE
INTERESTING AND HELPFUL
MEETING OF RETAIL CREDIT
ASSOCIATION is HELD.
CHANGE IN GROCERY DELIVERIES
Town People Urged to Shop Early in
the Mornings-All People Of the
County and Town Urged to DO
Christmas Shopping Early.

The Columbia Retail Credit Asso-
citation held one of the most interest
ing and helpful meetings in months
Thursday night In the Offices Of the
Maury National Bank, President K. p.
Turner presiding. There was good
attendance upon the meeting and
many interesting and important mat
tiers were brought up for discussion
Among the subjects discussed was
the delivery systems of the various
business firms. The grocerymen ask
ed for the permission to change their
hour Of delivery from o'clock in the
afternoon until 10 o'clock in the morn
ing, which was readily granted. The
motion to change the hour was put
by F. ID. Chaffin. The new change
goes into effect next Monday morning
November Is.
The merchants related many fun
ny experiences they had had In con
nection with the order that was pro-
mulgated as a war measure, prohib-
iting the return Of an article after
three days out Of the store. If the
customer could hear the many un-
reasonable requests that are made
upon the merchant they would no
doubt change their methods Of deal
ing with their merchants.
Another subject that consumed a
great deal of time. was the Importance
of impressing upon the good people
Of the town and county, to shop early.
One merchant said that If the city
ladies would shop early in the morn
ing that 1t would facilitate matters
very materially. Another merchant
said that his clerks sat around all
morning and did practically nothing
until about II O'Clock, when some of
them have their dinner hour, and
those that are left in the store are
run over trying to wait upon the rush.
The country people seldom get to the
city before II O'Clock, and the town
people do their shopping in the aft
ernoon, consequently, there is CON
gestion, and the limited help in the
stores make it almost an impossible
ity to give the customer first class
service.
Another subject was the Importance
Of doing Christmas shopping before
the last minute. The merchants are
very DESTROYS that their friends help
them out in this matter. Don't wait
until the last week to do your Christ
mash shopping. Do it now.
One of the most important and far
reaching questions discussed was the
best way Of getting line on the man
or woman who is in the habit of get
ting in deep to one merchant and then
jumping to another. Upon motion of
one of the leading members of the
association a plan was mapped out
whereby it was impossible for per-
son to beat a merchant without the
others knowing it. In other words
each member of the association has
an exact line upon the credit Of every
man and woman In the county. The
association will meet again the sec.
ond Thursday night in December.
