Why a BUYERS' GUIDE?


* It is customary to include a Buyers' Guide in the City Directory because . . .


It gives business firms the opportunity to elaborate upon a description of their products and services impossible in the limited space of regular Alphabetical and Classified listings.


The Buyers' Guide is a necessary supplement to the regular listings; it is good City Directory information ... EXTENDED

Out of Sight! Out of Mind! Out of Business! .


The importance of keeping firm and product names in the public eye is recognized by all business men. It is astonishing to see how a firm or product, however meritorious, will slip into the limbo of the forgotten if not persist- ently advertised.


The City Directory is the natural medium for keeping a business or product name in the spotlight. Insist on being well represented in its pages.
