Owing to the increasing cost of material of all kinds, the Retail Merchant finds his capital of former years insufficient to conduct his business without using a great deal of borrowed capital: therefore,' we want to ask you, our customer, for a few minutes of your time to present to you a business proposition that is of mutual interest and benefit. We want you for a period to place yourself in the position of the Retail Merchant. You have on your books several hundred open accounts and are beginning to realize the burden you are carrying when they are. not met promptly at maturity. Each claim must be handled as a distinct and separate business transaction. The collection department of any business is the most delicate part of its organization; its task, is to impress upon the customer the importance of prompt settlement and still keep his good will and trade. The one account is not a burden, neither is it a problem, but when you consider several hundred accounts it becomes a serious burden for you to fully, unravel. Ninety, per cent of the business of the country,' today,' is done on credit. Credit is the basic principle of business and the foundation of our commercial system. Credit is confidence and capital, and when we abuse this privilege we have, through our own effort?, helped to tear down the principles of credit accommodation. In the purchase of merchandise from a manufacturer, a distinct contract is made regarding the time of payment and the dealer is held strictly to these terms. There should be an understanding between a' dealer and his customer as to the time of credit, whether tomorrow, thirty or sixty days. Owing to the prices of material and the demand of all shippers and manufacturers for immediate payment of all invoices, even to the extent of asking the favor of advance payment in some instances, and in order to give the customers the benefit of the best prices possible, the undersigned dealers had. a meeting to discuss this question, in an endeavor to relieve the situation, and it was the opinion of all that the following terms would give everybody a square deal. '"'" . - - . - i . Commencing July 1st," 1917, all bids and open accounts are due the first day of each month, following purchase, and payable at the Company's office. Interest from first of month at the rate of 8 per annum, will be charged on all bills not settled by the 10th of the month. ' In the event it becomes necessary for collector to make the second visit to collect an overdue bill, 2 will be added to defray this expense. All bills for building material not paid at the expiration of fifty days will be subject to lien.

Wise To The

me;

This is the type of man Our community needs, the man who is "Wise to the game." The man who can't be "April-fooled." He is on to all. the tricks of the mail order business. He's got them all down Pat, and so he smiles as he passes up the gold brick on his way home with his basket of home bought goods on his arm. Take a good look at the man, for we need more of his kind. The crying need of today is for more men and women who refuse to be fooled by the most gigantic swindle of modern times. Every community needs men and women who will investigate for themselves, who will compare home values with out-of-town values. Let us all get wise to the game and place our money in the "Trade-at-Home" basket. You will, find that the Richmond Merchants are the best people to trade with after all. The closer at home you keep your dollar, the sooner it will get back to your own pocket. These merchants are leaders in Richmond's commercial life and will serve you at all times to the best of their ability. If the merchandise you want is not in stock, these merchants will get it for you.
