The a ssoc iation coo.perates with other Credit :Men's associations along the north shore. The association announces that it also operates a department whereby it helps its members to collect past due accounts, working in conjunction with the National association. The primary purpose of a Credit association, it is pointed out, is to make credit business desirable and profitable. It seeks to protect the person who pays promptly, thereby establishing a good credit record and enabling him t.') secure credit at any time and in any locality. The credit record which anyone makes here, it is explained. not only e~tablishes his credit in thi s community, but everywhere. The reputation made here will be reported to the association inquiring from a distance. In order to maintain a satisfactorY credit record, every bill contract:ed during the month should be paid by the tenth of the following month, the association explains. "Good credit is a golden possession." is a worth while motto. the association believes. It carries with it influence. prestige, confidence, honor, faith, tru~t and esteem. It has always been the custom along the north shore to grant more or less credit. It is a ·c onvenience to the residents, and business houses do not wish to refuse credit to those who have been in the habit of taking care of their obligations promntly. However. through the Winne-tka-Glencoe Credit Men's association a close check is kept at all times. ~.{en's WITH EVERY SUIT OR OVERCOAT ORDER Price $25 The Royal Tailon, 1641 Orrington Ave. Garrett Biblical institute, Evanston, Monday morning, February 17, for the mid-year meeting of the institute's alumni association and the regular !!lOnthly meeting of the Chicago Methodist preachers.
