COMMERCIAL and HOME "Your Problem Is Our Business"
CITY DIRECTORY ADVERTISING IS National ADVERTISING
* Each edition of your City Directory is widely distributed to free-reference City Directory Libraries located at the Chambers of Commerce of hundreds of other cities.
Therefore your ad in the City Directory is seen by buyers from coast-to-coast
CASHIERS! TELLERS! CLERKS!
Do your employers furnish you with the latest edition of the City Directory?
You need it at your elbow at all times, to pro- tect your company from forgers and bad-check artists. A few questions, checked against City Directory information, will trip them at once. Intelligent use of the City Directory for this purpose has saved thousands of dollars and helped make some cities "too sharp" for bad- check "operators."
