AHIIGE
GAME
Commercial Club Hearg
C. W. Nelson on Credit
Mr. E. W. Nelson, credit manager
for Rudge and Guenzel, addressed the
University of Nebraska Commercial
club Thursday morning at 11 o'clock
in Social Science 302. After the
address members of the club asked
Mr. Nelson questions about credit
and credit management. A short
business meeting of the club was
held after Mr. Nelson finished.
"If credit men could only put them
selves In the customers shoes," said
Mr. Nelson, "a much better condition
would exist." By doing this, he con
tinued, a friendly feeling will exist
that will cat down the per cent ot
loss on credit accounts.
Mr. Nelson tninks that every young
man should have at least one credit
account. A credit account establishes
a reputation for a man that will be
an asset when he makes business
affiliations or starts a business for
himself.
Next Thursday morning, November
4, Fred II. Rindge, Jr., national sec
retary of the Industrial Service Move
ment of the Y. M. C. A. will address
the club. Mr. Rindge is a speaker
of national reputation and will give
