POWER OF ADVERTISING
The City Directory is the power that gen- erates information for the buyer that he may know who deals in the product he wishes to purchase. If your business is not classified properly, and a display advertisement ar- ranged to describe your business, how can you expect the buyer to trade with you?
ADVERTISING is the foundation upon which successful business is built. You must apply this to your own particular busi- ness.
ADVERTISING is the power of an idea mul- tiplied.

Every Wasted Minute Costs You Money
Whether it's your time or that of an inexpensive clerk that is wasted by using an out of date directory, the loss is yours.
In the course of a year the time wasted usually costs far more than the price of a new directory.
Misdirected parcels or messages cause expense and annoyance.
Cut out this leak. Order a new city directory at once. It will pay you bigger dividends for the money invested than many of your ventures.
