No man who makes a practice
of being dishonest and repudiat-
ing his just accounts ever
amounts to a hill of beans. In
the commercial world they never
get to the quarter pole. The
successful business man thinks
more of his credit than he does
of his wife, for he knows if his
wife leaves him he stands some
of getting another, but it his
credit forsakes him he is up
against it. He can have but one
credit. It seems strange with
all this in mind that young men
will start out beating little bills
at the restaurants and at the
store. They will even borrow
fifty cents of a friend and refuse
to pay it back. That class of
fallows always wear a banner
that can be seen all over town
and everybody is onto them.
When it comes to paying your
debts, “honesty is the best
policy.”
Don’t kick because you have
to button your wife’s waist. Be
glad your wife has a waist and
doubly glad you have a wife to
button a waist for. Some men’s
wives have no waist to button.
Some men’s wives’ waists who
have buttons on to button don’t
care a continental whether they
are buttoned or not. Some men
don’t have any wives with
buttons on to button, any more
than a rabbit.
DECORATION DAY
The beautiful spring month of
May. while it comes to us with
the fragrance of flowers and
much that is cheerful and be-
autify yet it also brings to us
Memorial Day and with it many
sad memories. We are not in-
debted to history for our know-
ledge of the greatest of national
crises. Many of us remember it
and fathers and mothers now
living and better keep telling
that story to their children, so
that instead of their being de-
pendent upon cold type and
obliged to say: “On such a
page of such a book you can read
that,” will they rather be able
to say: “My father told me so!”
Men and women who vividly
remember 18(!1 andl862and 1863
and 1864. be yourselves t h e
historians telling it not with pen
but with living tongue and voice
and gesture. That is the great
use of Memorial Decoration day,
for the cally lilies on the grave
tops soon become breathless of
perfume and in a week turn to
dust like unto that which lies
beneath them. But the story of
courage and self-sacrifice and

Don’t
Take It
Easy
There are lots of merchants who are prone to take things
easy when they should be up and doing. It is not because
they are lazy or because they shirk meeting an issue, but
rather by reason of being uncertain just how to make a
beginning
This uncertainty is making many a merchant overlook the
trade possibilities which the parcel post now enables him
to develop. He hesitates, because he doesn’t know how,
about taking advantage of the low cost of delivering goods
within his zone, which enables him to compete with ever
the largest mail order house not in his immediate vicinity.
He fails to realize that his field for trade is vastly broad-
ened and that he can ship and deliver goods far more
quickly- to consumers within his district than any one else.
To take advantage of these features of the parcel post he
must plan out an effective advertising campaign (it will
pay him now where it wouldn’t in times past) and
organize an efficient shipping and correspondence depart-
ment. The results will not be long in coming.
