" ke The Sphere Of Credit Encompasses The Whole World It is difficult to imagine the world without credit today. It has become so much a part of our commercial and indus- trial life that it is almost indis- pensable. The furniture business was one of the first to take up sell- ing on credit. At first this plan met with certain abuses, which have long since been eradicated and today there is no more dignified method of selling known to modern re- tail commerce. The credit, or partial pay- ment plan, has even been dig- nified by the United States government itself in the sale of Liberty Bonds, which are sold on exactly the same basis which we sell our furniture with the exceptlon that you have the furniture in your pos- session from the day that you make your first payment.
