PREFACE
No city or town of today can expect to prosper or progress without making adequate municipal improvements; without such it will never be looked upon as being any good, or having any future; but simply will be called dead or a has-been. In business eireles, the City Directory is just as important to the health and vigor of a business, whatever line it may be, as municipal improvements are to the health and vigor of a town; they both go hand in hand; they both mean progress; for they both stand for
EFFICIENCY
which fact is being more vividly demonstrated every day; for there are thousands of City Directories in use now, where there were to be found comparatively very few only a very short period ago.
The business world has awakened to the realization of this need; and there are few towns of any consequence that do not have a City Directory. Just how up-to-date or complete the Directory is, depends in most cases upon the support accorded to the publishers, provided, of course, that they know their business.
It is an old saying that you can judge a man by the clothes he wears-whether this be true or not matters little; we all know that it is generally done; often no doubt to the disadvantage of some one. Just as much as man is judged by his clothes, just so mueh is the business life and activity of a town or community judged by its Directory; because the Directory is the most complete and the only recognized standard book of reference regarding the citizens of a com- munity, their address, occupation or kind of business in which they are engaged. When you consult a Directory of a town, you can easily deter- mine if it is up to the standard, and if you find it to be well patronized, you need not he told that it belongs to a live community-the fact is self-evident.
It is therefore with pleasure that we present Vol. II of the Burlington and Graham, N. C., City Directory, for the fact is self-evident that we are doing business in a live community.
