“PAID-WITH-THANKS”
LONDON’S LATEST PARTIES “Paid-up” parties are the latest fads among Londoners. It is not everybody who knows what a “paid-up party” is, and at least one person was astounded to receive the folio wing invitation:— “Please come to a ‘Paid-with-thanks’ party at on Saturday. Music and dancing.” Ringing up to inquire just what it meant the following explanation was give ‘ It’s just a little friendly gathering to celebrate the fact that all the instalments have been paid on the furniture and piano. I’m having another one next January to rejoice over the last payment on the motor-car." In view of the growing popularity of buying furniture and motor-cars on -the Instalment plan, there will probably be a large increase in paid-witb-thanks parties this season.
