Don't Contribute to Counterfeiters KNOW YOUR MONEY!
Don't Be Fooled by Forgers KNOW YOUR ENDORSERS!
The Government Never Redeems Counterfeit Money!
1. KNOW YOUR MONEYI Study the bills you receive so as to become familiar with the workmanship on them, especially in the portraits.
2. COMPARE a suspected bill with a genuine of the same type and denomination. Observe these things:
PORTRAIT Counterfeit-Dull, smudgy, or unnaturally white, scrat- chy; oval background is dark, lines irregular and broken. Portrait merges into the back- ground. Genuine-Stands out distinctly from the oval back- ground. Eyes appear lifelike. Background is a fine screen of regular lines.
COLORED SEAL
Counterfeit-Saw-tooth points around rim are usually uneven, broken off.
SERIAL
Genuine-Saw-tooth points around rim are even and sharp. Counterfeit-Poorly printed, badly spaced, uneven in appearance.
NUMBER
PAPER
Genuine-Figures firmly and evenly printed, well spaced. Counterfeit-Generally has no silk threads, but these may be imitated by very small red and blue ink lines.
Genuine-Printed on distinctive paper in which very small red and blue silk threads are scattered. The silk threads are not always noticeable on bills that are badly soiled or worn.
3. RUBBING a bill on a piece of paper will not prove it is genuine or counterfeit; ink can be rubbed from good bills as well as bad ones. 4. CONSULT an experienced money-handler or police officer to make sure, if you are still in doubt, whether a bill is genuine or counterfeit.
5. REMEMBER, NOT ALL STRANGERS ARE COUNTERFEITERS, BUT ALL COUNTERFEITERS ARE LIKELY TO BE STRANGERS.
This information is reprinted from the U. S. Secret Service 32-page booklet, "KNOW YOUR MONEY," which tells how to detect counterfeit coins and bills and how to guard against losses from forged Government checks. Copies may be purchased for 100 each, or $7.50 per 100 from the Superintendent of Docu- mente, Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C.
Published in Cooperation with United States Secret Service Treasury Dept.

Power of Advertising
THE CITY DIRECTORY is the power that generates information for the buyer that he may know who deals in the product he wishes to purchase. If your business is not classified properly, and a display advertisement arranged to describe your business, how can you expect the buyer to trade with you?
ADVERTISING is the foundation upon which successful businesses are built. You must apply this to your own particular business.
ADVERTISING is the power of an idea multiplied.

Please! Do Not Lend Your CITY DIRECTORY
IT COSTS YOU MONEY-Every Time it Is Loaned
The practice of lending your City Directory, in a great measure, fs responsible for the increasing cost of Directory Service. The reason is :-
There is a definite cost involved in the making of the DIRECTORY of Your City. THIS COST MUST BE' ABSORBED BY THE SUBSCRIBERS-BE THEY ONE-OR BE THEY 1000.
If there were but ONE SUBSCRIBER to the CITY DIRECTORY-THE ONE SUBSCRIBER would of necessity have to absorb THE WHOLE COST.
If there were 100 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/100th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.
If there were 1000 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/1000th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.
From which it is obvious that the GREATER the number of subscribers -the LESSER the cost to each.
And
It is also obvious that the LESSER the number of subscribers-the GREATER the cost to each.
Every time you Ioan your City Directory the LESS NECESSITY THERE IS FOR THE BORROWER TO SUBSCRIBE FOR THE SERVICE.
MORE BORROWERS result in FEWER SUBSCRIBERS which means IN- CREASED COST.

Out of Sight . Out of Mind Out of Business
The importance of keeping firm and product names in the public eye is recognized by all business men. It is astonishing to see how a firm or product, however meritorious, will slip into the limbo of the forgotten if not persistently advertised.
+
The City Directory is the natural medium for keep- ing a business or product name in the spotlight. Insist on being well represented in its pages.
