INTRODUCTION and GENERAL INDEX


HILL DIRECTORY COMPANY, publishers of Southeast- ern Directories (publishers of the Dunn-Erwin Directory since 1957), present to subscribers and the general public, this, the 1963 edition of the Dunn-Erwin City Directory, which also includes East Erwin, South Erwin and rural route residents.


Confidence in the growth of Dunn-Erwin's industry, population and wealth, and in the advancement of their civic and social activities, will be maintained as sections of this Directory are consulted, for the Directory is a mirror truly reflecting Dunn-Erwin to the world.


The enviable position occupied by HILL'S Directories in the estimation of the public, has been established by ren- dering the best in Directory service. With an unrivaled or- ganization, and having had the courteous and hearty co- operation of the business and professional men and resi- dents, the publishers feel that the result of their labors will meet with the approval of every user, and that the Dunn- Erwin Directory will fulfill its mission as a source of au- thentic information pertaining to these communities.


Four Major Departments


The four major departments are arranged in the fol- lowing order :-


I. THE BUYERS' GUIDE constitutes the first major de- partment of the Directory, printed on yellow paper. In the first section of this department, grouped under appropriate headings, are included the advertisements and business cards of firms and individuals desiring to make a complete presentation of their products or services. Following this is the Classified Business section, which embraces a list of the names and addresses of all business and professional concerns of the city, arranged in alphabetical order under appropriate headings-a catalog of all the activities of the city. The Buyers' Guide represents reference advertising at its best, and merits the attention of all buyers and sellers seeking sources of supply or markets for goods. In a busy and diversified community like Dunn-Erwin, the necessity of having this kind of information up-to-date and always immediately available, is obvious. The Directory is the com- mon intermediary between buyer and seller, and plays an important role in the daily activities of the commercial, industrial and professional world.


II. THE ALPHABETICAL LIST OF NAMES of residents and business and professional concerns, is the second major department, printed on white paper. This is the only record in existence that aims to show the name, marital status, occupation and address of each adult resident of Dunn- Erwin, and the name, official personnel, nature and address of each firm and corporation in the communities.


8


INTRODUCTION


III. THE DIRECTORY OF HOUSEHOLDERS, INCLUD- ING STREET AND AVENUE GUIDE, is the third major de- partment, printed on green paper. In this section the num- bered streets are arranged in numerical order, followed by the named streets in alphabetical order; the numbers of the residences and business concerns are arranged in nu- merical order under the name of each street, and the names of the householders and concerns are placed opposite the numbers. The names of the intersecting streets appear at their respective crossing points on each street. Special fea- tures of this section are the designation of tenant-owned homes and the listing of telephone numbers.


IV. THE NUMERICAL TELEPHONE DIRECTORY is the fourth major department, printed on blue paper.


Community Publicity


The Directory reflects the achievements and ambitions of the community, depicting in unbiased terms what it has to offer as a place of residence, as a business location, as a manufacturing site and as an educational center. To broad- cast this information, the publishers have placed copies of this issue of the Directory in Directory Libraries, where they are readily available for free public reference, and serve as perpetual and reliable advertisements of Dunn-Erwin and vicinity.


The Out-Of-Town City Directory Library


Through the courtesy of the publishers of the Dunn- Erwin Directory, a Directory Library is maintained in the offices of the Dunn Chamber of Commerce, for free refer- ence by the general public. This is one of more than 1,000 Directory Libraries, installed in cities and towns throughout the U. S., Canada and Puerto Rico by members of the Association of North American Directory Publishers.


The publishers appreciatively acknowledge the recog- nition by those progressive business and professional men who have demonstrated their confidence in the City Direc- tory as an advertising medium, with assurance that it will bring a commensurate return.
