Cash Tells
For many moons we have sold "for credit, and in
many cases have lost money. We could have sold at
a little lower margin had we gotten the money for 'all
the goods we sold. The people who pay are entitled
"to this saving, and we are entitled to our money. Be
ginning with the first of the year, we are selling for
cash only. We will make the goods cheaper, but you,
have to pay for them when sold. This will save money
for those who pay, ant those who do not, cannot have
the goods.
