Your Credit Is Good!
Daily Journal of Commerce, seattle)

(Daily Journal of Commerce, Seattle)
 Advertisements signs and display cards tell you your credit is good, but in the general run of installment buying you offered credit Credit does not enter into the usual transaction You may have article delivered, after making down payment and agreeing to pay the balance ln weekly or monthly instalments, but you do not own the thing purchased until the last installment lis paid.
 Under the laws of France title to the article purchased pass from the vendor to the vendee when delivery is made. Here it does not So you lreay do not know whether your credit is good, because you are not offered credit. You are given lcustody and of the article purchased but it is not yours until paid for in full, Credit is hardly the proper word for us to use.
 Many families never would their homes, their furniture, their and other desirable prop critics were they not permitted to buy them on installments large percentage of our people will meet their contract payments, but never seem able to save enough to pay cash in full at the time of purchase They mistakenly think they are using their credit, but such is not the unless title passes with the acceptance of the commodity ordered
 Instalment selling has never attained great popu- larity in European countries. English firms, spec ializing in instament contracts, shield their cus- toners from neighborood gossip by advertising that All purchases are delivered in that do not bear the name of company" Here installment buying carries no stigma If family wishes to mortgage it's future earnings, it is no ones busi- ness. American nstament selling has boosted sales to point that staggers the imagination of Euro pean manufacturers and dealers. And whle credit lis presumed to be more dignified there than here while may seldom be offered real credt-it seems that Americans, as class, have as kene an appreciation of honesty as do the people of European countries and judging by recent wholesat debt defaulting far finer sense of personal re- sponsbility in meeting their just obligations when due &

 II this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn't digest. It just decays in the bowels. Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a thick, bad taste and your breath is foul, skin often breaks out in blemishes. Your head aches and you feel down and out. Your whole system is poisoned.
 1t takes those good, old CAMPERS LITTLE LIVER PILLS to ee1 these two pounds of bile flowing freeiy and make you feel ''up and up." They contain wonderful. harmless. gentle vegetable extracts. amazing when it comes to making the bile flow freely.
 But don't ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter's Little Liver Pills. Look for the name Carter's Little Liver Pills on the red label. Resent . substitute

AN ACHIEVEMENT

Last Thursday morning DR..
Albert c. Forsythe and G.. Alfred
Anderson pointed the nose of their
trim 90-horse power mono-coupe
southwark on the first leg of their
Pan-American goodwill flight.
Early that evening they were in
Miami, Florida.
Anderson and Forsythe made
history last year when they flew
from coast to coast in small
plane without modern equipment.
According TO the latest news dis
patches the two filters have reach
ed Santiago on schedule.
They are visiting several South
American and British West Indian
countries in an attempt to build
goodwill and to prove that colored
Americans have the courage and
the ability to engage successfully
in aviation.
These two men deserve the high
est commentator. They engage in
perilous adventure not for fame
and fortune but to offset lies con-
corning tho ability and courage of
their racial group. No greater love
has any one. that he who risks his
life for the cause OF promoting
goodwill for his fellow men.
AS they fly over ocean and
dodge mountain peaks, they have
the best wishes and the sincere
prayers OF those who watch with
bated breath for their safe return
to those who love them. And may
their unconquerable spirits give
courage to others who live within
the veil" to go on in the face OF
tremendous difficulties.
