The Merchant Tailor Studies You


.


When you order a suit from a Merchant Tailor you become the individual study of a creative artist. Your person must not only be suited, but your clothes must harmonize with your person- ality.


The suit made for you by a Merchant Tailor is a study in "good taste." It has style that is correct without be- ing extreme or erratic. It has been made for you. It is characteristic of yourself. A good tailor never makes two suits alike.


Every customer that comes to him has a different indi- viduality. He seeks to fit each individuality as well as 'each figure.


Only in garments shaped to your figure-adapted to your personality-made from materials becoming to you, can you get the distinction and dignity which mark the Merchant Tailored man.


Merchant Tailor clothes are an investment well worth the cost. Apart from the improvement they make in your appearance, they retain their shape and their style as long as the garments are worn.

Introductory


I V presenting the twenty-fourth annual volume of the Oakland, Berkeley and Alameda Directory to our patrons, we feel assured that it will be found the best we have issued.


Great pains has been taken in gathering the informa- tion and no expense spared to thoroughly cover the field. Some idea of the labor involved can be conceived, when it is taken into consid- eration that every residence, store and place of business in seventy- live square miles of territory must be visited once and hundreds of them twice or three times to get the data correctly. Every factory, mill and store was visited and the name, residence and occupation of each employe taken.


Only experienced men were employed in the work and all in- formation carefully examined each day in order to reduce errors to minimum and enable to turn out a complete and accurate Directory.


Our city has been constantly growing in population during the last decade and today has the brightest future of any city on the roast. We would invite special attention to the facts and figures presented by The Oakland Real Estate Association on page 1487. These statements are authentic and make very interesting reading to every citizen who has the future welfare of Oakland at heart.


POPULATION


The Oakland portion of this Directory contains 79,208 names, Berkeley 21,520 names. Alameda 10,935 names.


After deducting all firms and business places, using the multiple 21/2 to represent the women and children not enumerated in our work, gives a population for Oakland of 187,600, Berkeley 53.800 and Ala- meda 27,337. The figures for Oakland include Piedmont and Emery- ville.


The building permits show a steady growth for our city and all things points to a great future for this, our "Greater Oakland."


Thanking our patrons and friends for the assistance given us in gathering the information necessary to produce this work. we remain,


Respectfully,


POLK-HUSTED DIRECTORY CO.
