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 cities "too sharp" for bad-check "operators."

Features and Departments of a City Directory
Your new, improved City Directory is the most complete and comprehensive catalog ever published of the inhabit- ants, business concerns and institutions of your city. It is much more than just an alphabetical list of names and addresses.
Your City Directory Contains:
1
An Alphabetical list of names and addresses of every resident, business concern and insti- tution, plus wife's name and if a widow the deceased husband's initial, and the occupa- tions of all. Principal officers or owners and a description of businesses are included as well.
2
A Householders' Directory including a Street and Avenue Guide. This section lists every street and where intersecting streets appear. It lists numerically every location on each street, naming the householder or business at each number and whether the person is a homeowner or renter and if he has a telephone. Similar information is provided on office and public buildings and their occupants.
3 A Classified Business Directory -listing every business, classified as to type, and showing names and addresses. It also lists every pro- fession, club, society and association, hospital and cemetery, labor organization, library park and playground and school.
4 A "Yellow Section" or Buyers' Guide, where the advertiser may explain in greater detail the services or products he has to offer.
5 A Statistical and Historical Story of your city; plus miscellaneous other information.
