NOTICE
The Federal Government asks that all retail merchants put their
Business upon a war time basis.
The Commercial Economy Board of the Council of National Defense
recommends that merchants
Grant Credit for No Longer than Thirty Days
Sell More Necessities and Less Luxuries
Make Only One Delivery a Day
The idea of the government is to reduce the expense of doing business to the mer
chant with the object in view that the goods and merchandise sold will reach the
consumer at a less cost.
Believing that the adoption of these economies is tic doing of a patriotic duty, the
business houses of Cordova have decided to adopt the following practice, namely:
That all bills contracted in any month shall be paid not later than the 15th of tin*
succeeding month or satisfactory arrangements must be made by that date for a
definite extension of time.
That all parties owing old bills which they are unable to settle at the present time
must make definite arangements in regard to the same.

Miss Guerrin died before rescuers
could reach her and Neilson passed
away later from his wounds. The
fire was caused by a defective flue.
