(Sudbvi.lowK This Thing Called Credit By EARL WHITLOCK The modern credit man strives to keep people from go ing too deeply in debt. Once a man is overwhelmed with debt ne ceases to be v- J . ''-iff ber of the com munity. By con structive s e r v ice, such hu man wrecks are avoided. Yet credit, properly used, is one of the V1U.U41UB lurces vi nmencan i hllAinpM A rnnv.ni.nr. that' could not be done without. Frequently we are asked if credit arrangements can be made to take care of funeral expenses. Of course they can. And we are glad to extend credit to those who are entitled to it and even to stretch a point to make things easier for those who call us in time of need. But on one point we wish to be emphatic. It is never our pol icy here, to use that credit as a lever to urge the purchase of a more expensive service than would otherwise have been se lected. There is always the temptation, at time of bereave ment, to allow sentiment to over-rule sound judgment in the choice of a service and, more often than not, it is our policy to suggest the less cost ly arrangements. Because we feel that we want the entire memorial to remain, in your mind, as a cherished memory. And that cannot be accomplished if, for long months to come, there is an overburden of indebtedness Next Saturday Mr. Whitlock of the Earl Whitlock Funeral home will comment on Easter.
