National Pay-Bp Week had Its be ginning in the little city of Waukou. Iowa, a county seat of but little over 12,i mm i population at the end of a tittio railway in the northwestern parf of the state of Iowa.. , NVaukou is a beautiful little city, and a busy business center, but the people of that community are like tile people in many another town and community that is, some of them have, during the past years, bought gopds for which they never paid, until the week of January 9-15, 1015, the principal of the high school, who hap pens to be secretary of the Commer cial Club, suggested that It would be a gotsl thing for Waukou to have a day of reckoning, or rather, a week of reckoning. The idea appealed to the business men of Waukou, more par ticularly to the merchants av^o had considerable money in outstanding ac counts. So the week of .January 9 15 was advertised as Pay-Up Week, and during thtut time In tills little city, over $50,000 in old accounts was wli>cd oil' the books of the local busi ness houses. , lOverylMsly BCClUCd to j< ?i ii in the spirit, and consequently all found it easy to pay their debts. And it is needless- to say- that ^prosiierlty reign ed in that town, for it means some thing' to a town of 2V000 population to lift a debt of $50,000 in one week's time, and especially when part *?f the debt is so old that it has been con sidered uncollectible. The results of Pay-Up Week at Waukon were so flood that the Mer chants Trade Journal, a national maga zine read by retail mercliants in every town of any consequence in the en tire country, told its readers of the success of the Waukon i?eople in pay ing their debts and urged business men In other towns to give greater at tention to their collections, and soon other towns began trying the i?ian? all with splendid results. And now the entire country seems ready for this extrafjrdinary event of National Piay Up Week. Our credit is national in its scope. The manufacturer extends credit to J]U' jobber, the Jobl>er carries the re tall merchant, the merchant in turn extends credit to his customers, and, therefore, every business interest should be interested in a National Pay rp Week. _ If loeal people in towns ^wmiTd mHke it a point to pay the docti>r, the preacher, the grocer and all other merchants, and the merchant made it a point to pay the wholesaler and the Jobber, and the wholesaler to pay the manufacturer during this week, Feb. 21-20, there would be more dol lars put in circulation in this country than were ever started moving dur ing the same length of time. A >;ood slogan to be used from now till National Pay-Up Week would 1k\ "Von pay your bills ? I will pay mine, February 21-20."
