Attention-Mr. Miller:
Gentlemen:
Your Mr. Ford has arrived in Charlotte. We will help him in any way we possibly can. If there is anything special we can do, let us know.
I am presuming, Mr. Miller, that you are going to give us the same free pages that you did in the book last year. Let me know if this is the case, so I can prepare the copy, and have it ready for you.
Want to congratulate you on the book last year. It was splendid, and I am glad to say we have had no complaints except one, which I told you at the time, that the directory was late coming out. Now, if you can speed up the pres- ent book it will certainly be appreciated.
Remember if we can help you in any way let us know.
February 26, 1927.
Yours truly, C. C. KUESTER, Business Manager.

PREFACE
We take pleasure in submitting Vol. X 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 oceurs that a person, in giving the information for the directory, overlooks 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 lew. All directories contain a few typographical errors but such errors do not affect the value of the book, the main object of a directory is to enable someone to find or locate someone else. As a whole, 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 pub- lication 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 progressive city where the people are interested and where they are willing to co-operate 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 invest or live.
About 10% of the people, or 35% of the grown people, own property. Population 32,000
We shall continue this publication, annually, and promise you efficient service.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Brownsville, Texas
October 25, 1926.
M. E. H. Miller, President,
Piedmont Directory Company,
Asheville, N. C.
Dear Mr. Miller:
Referring to your letter of October 20th, wish to advise that I have met your Mr. Atkins and have given him the endorsement of the Brownsville Chamber of Commerce.
Mr. Atkins tells me that he is meeting with good success, which I was sure he would.
I would like to suggest that you consider making a directory of Cameron County, of which Brownsville is the County seat. There are two other good towns in this county-San Benito and Harlingen-in which you probably could get some good support, and I am sure that the Chambers of Commerce of these communities would co-operate with you to the fullest extent. The other com- munities are small and would be covered quickly.
Will you kindly consider this suggestion ?
Youry very truly, G. C. RICHARDSON, Sec.
