COOL AIDS
For
Summer Heat
THESE WARM DAYS raise the question of what to eat . .
We are not hading out advice, but beg to offer some
suggestions:
FIRST-Use a generous amount of Fruits and Vegetables.
SECOND-Keep your ice box filled with citrus and other
fruit juices and soft drinks.
THIRD-Stockyour larder with canned goods, cold meats,
cheese and other articles so you can prepare a
tasty, wholesome meal without sweltering over
a stove.
FOURTH-(and this is important) -Buy these supplies
from your old reliable grocer and you will have
that satisfaction which only the best foods can
give.

A CHARACTER
LOAN
WHY BECOME A CREDIT OUTCAST?
o WHY LOSE YOUR CREDIT STAND
ING with your Merchant and Doctor?
Why jeopardize the greatest asset you
ever had-YOUR CREDIT STANDING
in your community?
STOP, THINK, don't forget when you
asked for credit you asked for a PER
SONAL LOAN!
REMEMBER you asked for confidence when you asked for credit and you were not com
pelled to sign a note or put up any kind of collateral as security. This is called a CHAR
ACTER LOAN by the banks, so don't lose that confidence that your Merchant or Doctor
bestowed on you. Start now to pay, part pay or satisfactorily arrange to pay on that
CHARACTER LOAN. REMEMBER you lose your character and you lose something you
may never regain.
