THE EVENING STAR, W HIN{TON, EVERYMAN’S CREDIT BY LEWIS SINCLAIR GRIGSBY nt Secretary Associated Retail A > Nen ot Washingion. No. 4—To Much Credit. Quite often we find the individual who is overburdened with too much credit. The man or woman who lets old man “Debt” ride mercilessly on tired, aching shoulders. Who never gains a moment’s surcease from wor- ry and embarrassment. The man or an who carelessly overbought just because the merchandise was attrac- tive and the price was right. It is so easy to become accursed to one's self in a credit way. How many persons have not sald at one time or another, “What a relief it would be if I were only out of debt.” And yet the bur- den of proof is upon you. You are taking the genii of the lamp and mak- ing a slave driver of him by forcing needless burdens upon yourself. The effect of too much credit is tremendous. A well recognized factor of credit is “Capital” and if you hav overbought beyond youd liquid c vou are, indeed, in a sad predica ‘Again, if you have sought and ob tained too much credit beyond yonr ity” to learn and pay, you have nings to to come. your credit This de- w pay the bills of the mont The deterioration of standing is bound to follow. cline may be serious and without proper attention develop into a posi- tive suspension of credit.
