CAUTION


Pay no money in advance to itinerant Directory Canvassers. We are led to mention this from the fact that certain parties have been fraudulently using our publications as specimens, and by that means collecting money in advance. Before signing an order, see that it has the name of the publisher of this City Directory 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.

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, is 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 loan 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.

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 ques- tions, checked against City Directory information, will trip them at once. 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."

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.
