POT MAKERS' CREDIT ASSOCIA- 

 TION. 



The Pot Makers Credit Association 

 recently held their second quarterly 

 meeting in Columbus, Ohio, with 95 

 per cent, of the pottery trade on hand. 

 The credit system established at the 

 former meeting has in a few months 

 shown a considerable saving in losses, 

 proving the beneficial results of a 

 credit system— and that the large 

 losses of the past will be no more. To 

 illustrate, under the methods of the 

 past, a customer of one potter neglects 

 to pay him, and buying from a new 

 firm each year he soon owes all, and 

 he is able to undersell his brother 

 florist. The vital question of long 

 credit was also brought up and after 

 much discussion was held over for 

 the next meeting, when more data 

 would be obtained. However, it was 

 brought out that the long-time credits 

 were undesirable and unfair to the 

 customer as well as to the business 

 man. P- M. Re.\^d. Sec.
