Pay no money in advance to itinerant Directory Canvassers. We have been led to mention this from the fact that certain parties have been fraudulently using our publications as specimens, and by this means collecting money in ad- vance.
Before signing an order, see that it has the name of R. L. POLK & CO. printed thereon. We ask no pay- ment until the work is delivered, and our solicitors have orders not to request payment for either advertising or sub- scriptions in advance.

What is a Live Prospect?
He is a man with a lot of questions in his mind. He wants to know Where and What and Who and How and When.
Thousands of live Prospects are looking in directories daily to find out
Where they can buy something? What they can get for their money? Whom they can buy it from? How they can get it?
The time to sell a prospect is when he is alive. Make this book your Salesman to live prospects.

GLOUCESTER DIRECTORY
There are two kinds of Advertising
That which the Buyer seeks, and that which is thrust upon him.
Both are good
Display advertising suggests wants and creates desire. Of its tremendous power many present day successes bear witness.
Reference Advertising steps in when the desire has been created. It shows where the goods can be purchased and gives information that the buyer wants when he wants to buy.
À Connecting Link
The weakness of display advertising is that often a need is not realized until the ad that suggested it is misplaced or thrown away.
A shrewd buyer usually looks the field over before buying and where is so logical a place to look as in this book.
A Help to You
In your buying, use the lists in this book. If you see a name in heavy type it is because that concern thought enough of your possible business to make it easy for you to find them. If it says "See page - - ", you will find there information that will really help you.
Are You Covered?
Have you made it easy for buyers to find you, by putting a bold type listing under every heading where they might look for you or a competitor? Have you put information in the "Selling Section" that will really help a buyer, and point to you as the one who can serve him best?
If not, make a note to do it in the next edition, and let us tell you now how little it costs to be protected.
