PRO BONO PUBLICO
PREFACE
We take pleasure in submitting Vol. VIII of the High Point, N. C., Directory. While no directory is free from errors, we feel sure the High Point directory will rank above the average city directory and will give general satisfaction. Experienced help only has been used in collecting the data for this directory, and if there are any omissions of names it is not due to the fact that the ground was not fully covered by our canvassers, for a house-to-house canvass was made. It often occurs that a person, in giving the information for the directory, over- looks or forgets to give names of persons that should be listed, and in such cases it is not the fault of the publisher that some names are left out. As a rule these omissions are few. Of course, the printers have to make a few typographieal errors-they would not be printers if they did not-but as a whole we know that the High Point Directory can be relied upon, and will be found by all who use it to be a very valuable book of information, and one which no up-to-date business man can afford to be without.
We desire to thank our patrons for their liberal support, by which this publication was made possible. We also desire to extend our thanks to our many friends and the public in general for the courteous way in which they supplied us with the proper data. It is a pleasure for us to publish a directory in a city where the people are interested and where they are willing to co-operate with us and lend their aid in the making up of a work of this character as was the case in High Point. This of itself is good evidence that High Point is a good, live, up-to-date city, and a good place in which to live.
About 10% of the people, or 35% of the grown people, own property. Population 25,26I
We shall continue this publication, and promise you efficient service.
