II ATT1NT0OMS I
Make Junea'Pay-Up" Proclamation
IT MEANS THE RETURN OF BUSINESS
Do You Know What Your Credit Rating Is With
The Morrow County Credit Board of Pioneer Service?
The merchants and professional
men of Morrow County have
formed a County Credit Board,
which in turn is part of the state
wide organization, to protect
each other from wilful delin
quent debtors, that refuse to
owes and if he is paying or ar
pay, part pay, or arrange to pay
their past due accounts... Each
month a credit report is issued
to all members of the County
Credit Board carrying each debt
or's name, showing where he
owes the bill, and the amount he
ranging to pay. BE SURE you
have either a P, which means
payment, or an A, which means
satisfactorily arranged, before
your name... Where no P, or a A
is in front of your name, that
means you are making no effort
to pay PAST DUE ACCOUNTS.
Remember That Every Time You Ask Your Merchant or Doctor
For Credit You Are Asking Him For a Personal Loan !
You can readily see that if you
do not try and make some effort
to maintain your credit rating
with your County Credit Board,
you will soon become a SOCIAL
OUTCAST, LOSE YOUR CRED
IT, and you lose something you
may never regain. REMEMBER,
the man who pays is welcome
everywhere and the one who
does not pay soon loses his good
name and his CREDIT RATING.
When you receive a PIONEER
SERVICE statement bearing our
registered trade mark, try to
pay, part pay, or satisfactorily
arrange to pay and . . . KEEP
your CREDIT RATING GOOD!
