Easing up on our work once in a while—hitting the pill with the boys, strutting with the girls, or stepping on the gas with both —what is generally known as ‘taking a day off is good medicine and fair enough. Provided the day belongs to us. Provided we aren’t making some other good guy work harder to meet his obligations because we haven’t met ours to him. For every man and woman who buys anything on CREDIT is really a Silent Partner with the merchant who extends the credit, who first invested his credit before he could accommodate ours. Is it quite fair to keep such a merchant’s nose to the grindstone’ of his obligations while we take a day off from ours? It is not. How about that department-store account

due ‘on or before the tenth of next month’ — how about paying it NOW and then taking a day off? Or that motorcar, jewelry, furniture, real-estate, clothing, or investment-stock we're buying on time —we’re Silent Partners in all these businesses, remember —should the Active Partners do all the worrying? You and we and all average Americans are 100% honest. We’re just plumb careless — that’s it! —so you see it only requires a little more thought and we’ll pay our monthly accounts johnny-on-the-spot NEXT month —■ you know we will! So if you must ‘take a day off take any day but the tenth of the month, unless that day finds your CREDIT unimpaired and healthy: Th V of the greatest words in the English lang \ ,e continue to be: “ENCLOSED FIND CHECK!”
