Common Sense ABOUT CITY DIRECTORY CIRCULATION


The true value of advertising circulation is circulation consulted.


To be exact by actual survey in twenty-four average American cities by actual count each city directory averaged three and one-half consultations for each business day.


To be conservative we will eliminate the sixty Sundays and Holidays when no tests were made. For every thousand directories sold there will be an average of three and one-half daily consultations for each book for three hundred and five days, therefore

REAL ESTATE


For Responsible Realty Service, Deal with a Member of the Oakland Real Estate Board


"'THE REALTOR''


A Realtor is a licensed real estate broker whose ability and integrity are vouched for by the professional organization of his craft, and whose record of business con- duct has brought him membership in a Realty Board of recognized standing.


He is pledged to observance of a code of business ethics imposed by the National Association of Real Estate Boards which alone has legal authority to confer the professional title "Realtor" and to withdraw it for cause.


In this city, only realty brokers who hold membership in the Oakland Real Estate Board may enjoy the prestige the term implies. The Board admits to mem- bership only brokers of approved reputation and it stands always ready to protect and defend the integrity of conduct involved in the practice of the realty business.


The Real Estate Board exists for the maintenance of the realty business upon a plane of responsibility and trustworthiness and of professional prestige, and to safeguard and promote the welfare of real estate and realty ownership interests.


The Realtor recognizes his responsibility to the Real Estate Board for the benefits derived from it to himself and his clients and the business he serves, and is proud of the fact that he shares the burdens of that responsibility.


By his alliance with leaders of his craft in Real Estate Board activity, and by conforming to its standards of business conduct, the Realtor identifies himself with that professional group which, in every city, exemplifies the best and most competent and most trustworthy element in the realty business.

How to Make Application for


Water Service


When moving into a new house the first requirement necessary is Water Service.


It is no trouble to get this service. You may come to any one of the District's four business offices, as shown below, and personally sign for meter connection-you may write your request for water- or if. in the confusion of moving, it is not convenient to write or call, a telephone message will bring a service man to you at your home.


It is the desire of the District to make it easy and convenient for you to get water service. All business offices are instructed to comply promptly with every reasonable request.


If you are a newcomer to this community you will be asked to make a deposit which may be returned to you after one year with interest at 6%.


The East Bay Municipal Utility District is anxious to serve you in every possible way, and the development of this broad policy of handling orders is part of the service to you.
