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

DO YOUR EMPLOYERS FURNISH YOU WITH THE LATEST EDITION OF THE CITY DIRECTORY?

You need it at your elbow at all times, to protect your company from forgers and bad-check artists. A few questions, checked against City Directory informa- tion, 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."

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

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