-thus assuring you the ultimate service that skill and care can produce in the way of City Directories or other reference media, and providing pro- tection 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 ad- hered 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 head- ing that best describes it, and to treat additional listings as advertis- ing, ' to be charged for at regular rates.
4. To increase public knowledge of what Directories contain; to study public needs and make Direc- tories to supply them; to revise and standardize methods and classifica- tions, so that what is wanted may be most easily found, and the Direc- tory be made to serve its fullest use
as a 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 circulation, placing the test of refer- ence publicity upon its accessibility to seekers, rather than on the num- ber of copies sold.
8. To co-operate with approved organization and individuals en- gaged in creative advertising work.
9. To avoid unfair competition.
10. To determine what is the highest 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 fske directories.

Do your employers furnish you with the latest edition of the City Directory
?
You need it at your elbow at all times, to protect your company from forgers and bad-check artists. "A few questions, checked against City Directory informa- tion, will trip them at once. Intelligent use of the City Directory for this purpose has saved thousands of dollars and helped make some citics "too sharp" for bad-check "operators."

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.
