I' IN ADDITION to names and addresses, your City Direc- tory contains much detailed information concerning the people of your community. In order to list this information certain symbols and designations have been developed which enable important statistics to be compressed into the smallest possible space. You will receive far greater benefits from your City Directory if you familiarize yourself with the symbols and what they stand for.
In checking credit applications, in conducting direct mail advertising programs, in planning sales campaigns, in build- ing prospect lines, and in scores of other ways your City Directory will prove of invaluable assistance.

A STATEMENT OF ADVERTISING PRINCIPLES
I. Good Advertising ~aims to inform the con- sumer and help him to buy more intelligently.
2. Good Advertising ~tells the truth, avoiding misstatement of facts as well as possible deception through implication or omission. It makes no claims which cannot be met in full and without further qualification. It uses only testimonials of competent witnesses.
3. Good Advertising ~~ conforms to the gen- erally accepted standards of good taste. It seeks public acceptance on the basis of the merits of the product or service advertised rather than by the disparagement of competing goods. It tries to avoid practices that are offensive or annoying.
4. Good Advertising ~ recognizes both its eco- nomic responsibility to help reduce distribution costs and its social responsibility in serving the public interest.
Advertising Federation of America
