ANNOUNCEMENT
On and after January 1, 1921 I am going to adopt a cash system
for selling merchandise. I will sell for cash only. I am 'doing this
for two reasons. One is it will place me in position to sell you' goods
from 10 to 15 per cent less than I can sell them now. The capital
it takes to carry long standing accounts compels a merchant to sell
goods for a'larger per cent of profit. Besides 'it enables the man
that pays cash to buy his goods a great deal cheaper and the man
that buys on credit can borrow money and save from 6 to 10 per
cent by paying cash. And another thing it eliminates all rrors that
are liable to happen in book keeping.
Second, it will do away with the work and expense of keeping
books which adds largely to the overhead cost of doing business. As
I am,goiiig to adopt the cash system would ask that everyone who
is indebted to please make their arrangemnts to settle all accounts
by the 1st of the New Year 1921.
I am sure it will mean much in dollars and cents to both parties
concerned.
I want to thank my many friends and customers for past favors
and solicit your valuable patronage in the future.
E. A. HARDESTY, Stephensport, Ky.
