IF YOU ARE IN A BUSINESS FOG IN THE AFTERMATH OF WAR
Let the City Directory help guide you to reorientation. It is the natural key to things as they are after the great upheaval. A recent Directory will provide the basis by which business can obtain a new grip on markets and a new appraisal of prospects. Pre-war guides of nearly all kinds are deader than a dodo today. Business now enters a new era of great possibilities. The City Directory hews to the line without propaganda, and new editions of this service reveal the great physical changes that have come over cities and communities during the past five years.
