CLASSIFIED BUSINESS LISTS OF THE DIRECTORY THAN ANY OTHER MEDIUM ON EARTH
INTRODUCTION
R. L. POLK & CO., publishers of the Indianapolis City Directory, as well as more than 700 other city, county, state and national directories, present to subscribers and the general public, this, the 1929 edition of the Indianapolis Directory. This issue is characterized by an entirely new feature, the listing of wives' given names after the names of the husbands.
Confidence in the continued growth of Indianapolis' wealth, indus- try and population, and in the advancement of its municipal and social activities, will be created as sections of this directory are consulted, for the directory is a mirror truly reflecting Indianapolis to the world.
The enviable place occupied by R. L. POLK & CO.'S directories in offices, stores, libraries and homes thruout the country, has been estab- lished by rendering the best in directory service. With an unrivaled organization, and having the courteous and hearty cooperation of the business and professional men and residents, the publishers feel that the result of their labors will meet with the approval of every user, and that the Indianapolis Directory will fulfill its mission as a source of authentic information pertaining to the city.
Population
The estimated population of Indianapolis is 439,074, based on the number of individuals' names in the alphabetical section of the directory, with due allowance for children and for women whose names are not listed separately from those of their husbands. Territory immediately adjacent, which is part of the city, as far as business and social life are concerned, is included in the directory.
Six Major Departments
The several essential departments are arranged in the following order:
THE MISCELLANEOUS DEPARTMENT, pages 25 to 38, presents a variety of information, such as lists of city, county, state and federal officials; post office and public school directories; statistical summary; manufacturing, trade and civic surveys, etc.
THE BUYERS' GUIDE, pages 101 and 292, printed on tinted paper, contains the advertisements of leading manufacturing, business and pro- fessional interests of Indianapolis. These pages will be found particu- larly interesting and instructive to substantial purchasing factors. The advertisements have been carefully grouped by departments and are indexed under headings descriptive of the business represented. This is reference advertising at its best and, as such, merits a survey by all buyers anxious to familiarize themselves with sources of supply. The city's activities, in many interesting phases, are authentically pictured. In a great commercial center like Indianapolis, the necessity of having this kind of information immediately available, is very great and, fre- quently, pressing. General appreciation of this fact is evidenced by the liberal support the city directory enjoys in the many fields which it serves.
