CAUTION ....
Pay no money in advance to itinerant Di- rectory canvassers. We are led to mention this from the fact that certain parties have been fraudulently using our publications as speci- mens, and by that means collecting money in advance. Before signing an order, see that it has the name of the publisher of this City Direc- tory printed thereon. We ask no payment until the work is delivered, and our solicitors have strict orders not to take advance payment for either advertising or subscriptions.

IN ADDITION to names and addresses, your City Direo 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 mable 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 mall 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.

-thus assuring you the ultimate service that skill and care can produce in the way of City Directories or other reference media, and providing protection against fraudulent advertising schemes which operate under the name of Directories.
The following "Standards of Practice," adopted at the inception of the Association of North American Directory Publishers in 1898, and strictly adhered to over the years, is your guarantee of satisfactory Directory Service.
The publisher of a Directory should dedicate his best efforts to the cause of business uplift and social service, and to this end pledges himself:
1. To consider, first, the interest of the user of the book.
2. To subscribe to and work for truth, honesty and accuracy in all departments.
3. To avoid confusing duplication of listings, endeavoring to classify every concern under the one heading that best describes it, and to treat addi- tional listings as advertising, to be charged for at regular rates.
4. To Increase public knowledge of what Directories contain; to study public needs and make Directories to supply them; to revise and standard- ize methods and classifications, so that what is wanted may be most easily found, and the Directory be made to serve its fullest use as &
business and social reference book and director of buyer and seller.
5. To decline any advertisement which has a tendency to mislead or which does not conform to business integrity.
6. To solicit subscriptions and ad- vertising solely upon the merits of the publications.
7. To avoid misrepresentation by statement or inference regarding cir- culation, placing the test of reference publicity upon its accessibility to seek- ers, rather than on the number of copies sold.
8. To co-operate with approved or- ganizations and individuals engaged in creative advertising work.
9. To avoid unfair competition.
10. To determine what is the high- est and largest function of Directories in public service, and then to strive in every legitimate way to promote that function.
$100 Reward will be paid by the Association of North American Directory Publishers for the arrest and conviction of any person or persons engaged In the publishing, collecting or canvassing for any fraudulent or fake directories.

Intelligent use of the City Directory for this purpose has saved thousands of dollars and helped make some cities "too sharp" for bad-check "operators."

Know Your Endorser
· The United States Secret Service has launched & "KNOW YOUR ENDORSER" campaign against check forgery to supplement its highly successful "KNOW YOUR MONEY" drive, which, over a period of six years, reduced the amount of coun- terfeit money in circulation by more than 97 per cent.
We can all cooperate in this long-pull educa- tional program and thus eliminate the market for forged checks by making it dangerous and unprofitable for forgers to operate. Here are a few simple rules for those who cash checks and those who get them cashed.
If You Cash Checks for Others
1 DEMAND PROPER IDENTIFICATION. Remember that lodge cards, Social Security cards, auto licenses, letters and the like can be forged and stolen. A forger's credentials are often forgeries themselves. Proper identification can best be determined by asking your- self this question: "IF THIS CHECK IS RETURNED, CAN I FIND THE PERSON WHO GAVE IT TO ME?"
2 Always demand that the person cashing the check en- dorse it in your presence. Even though the check has been endorsed, insist that he endorse it again.
