Announcement
"A Wise Man changes his mind, a Fool never."
Daring the fifteen and one-half years I have done business
in this town I have thought best to do a partial credit busi
ness, but the change in conditions, the high cost of merchan
dise, has forced me to change my mind. I now know that it
can't be done successfully without a larger working capital
than I have. I can serve my patrons better, give them better
merchandise for the same money or as good merchandise for
less money on a cash basis, so I have decided that after May 1st
I will extend no more credit. I shall always be grateful to my
good stand-by credit customers and am sorry I can not con
tinue to serve them as in the past, but conditions have forced
me to this change to protect my own interests.
Oood-bye Old Man Credit.
Pretty little Miss Cash, I extend to you a Mayday greet
ingT" Let's Go." Sincerely,
Roy Beckwith
