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 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."

WHY A BUYERS' GUIDE?
* It is customary to include a Buyers' Guide in the City Directory because ! ! !
It gives business firms the opportunity to elaborate upon a description of their products and services impossible in the limited space of regular Alphabetical and Classified listings.
The Buyers' Guide is a necessary supplement to the regular listings; it is good City Directory information ... EXTENDED

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.
