If You Are in a BUSINESS FOG in the
Aftermath of War ... Let the City Directory help guide you to reorientation. It is the natural key to things as they are after the great upheaval. A recent Directory will provide the basis by which business can obtain a new grip on markets and a new appraisal of pros- pects. Pre-war guides of nearly all kinds are deader than a dodo today. Business now enters a new era of great possi- Business Men Need Such Information in Such Times! bilities. The City Directory hews to the line without propaganda, and new editions of this service reveal the great physical changes that have come over cities and communities during the past five years.

Coastwide banking service
In 1864, a bank that adhered to an essentially commercial type of service was ahead of its day, for commercial and industrial progress on the Coast had hardly begun.
Since then, the unified development of the three Pacific states has demonstrated, many times, the foresight of the founders of The Bank of California. The steady growth of this bank (since 1864 in California, 1882 in Oregon and 1889 in Washington) rests on its close relationship with all major industries of the West.
