CREDIT
EVERY man should con
sider his credit stand
ing in the community
whether he is asking for
credit or not. He owes it to
himself to maintain a good
credit standing and some
time he may need it. No
one thing will do so much
toward establishing one’s
credit as a Checking Account
at the baiiK and the paying
of all bills by check. Let us
talk to you on the subject.
