Please! Do Not Lend Your CITY DIRECTORY IT COSTS YOU MONEY-Every Time It Is Loaned

The practice of lending your City Directory, in a great measure, is re- sponsible for the increasing cost of Directory Service.

The reason is :-

There is a definite cost involved in the making of the DIRECTORY of Your City.

THIS COST MUST BE ABSORBED BY THE SUBSCRIBERS BE THEY ONE-OR BE THEY 1000.

If there were but ONE SUBSCRIBER to the CITY DIRECTORY-THE ONE SUBSCRIBER would of necessity have to absorb THE WHOLE COST. If there were 100 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/100th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.

If there were 1000 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/1000th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.

From which it is obvious that the GREATER the number of subscribers -the LESSER the cost to each.

And

It is also obvious that the LESSER the number of subscribers-the GREATER the cost to each.

Every time you loan your City Directory the LESS NECESSITY THERE IS FOR THE BORROWER TO SUBSCRIBE FOR THE SERVICE.

MORE BORROWERS result in FEWER SUBSCRIBERS which means IN- CREASED COST.

THE HOME-OWNER SYMBOL, in the Householders' Guide of the New City Directory, designates Home- owners on every Street and Avenue in the city. As a means of Checking Credits, conducting Direct Mail Campaigns, Sales Planning, Prospect Lists, etc., it is of invaluable assistance.

THE BELL SYMBOL designates Telephone Subscrib- ers and appears in the Householders' Guide following street numbers.

NEW FEATURES and DEPARTMENTS are constantly being adopted in our efforts to improve and add to the recognized value of the City Directory service demanded by the public.
