Power of Advertising


The City Directory is the power that generates informa- tion for the buyer that he may know who deals in the pro- duct 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.


RATES UPON APPLICATION

PRO


LISHE


Thus assuring you the ultimate service that skill and care can produce in the way of City Directories or other reference media.


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 heading that best describes it, and to treat additional listings as advertising, to be charged for at regular rates.


4. To increase public knowledge of what Directories contain; to study public needs and make Directories to supply them; to revise and stand- ardize methods and classifications, so that what is wanted may be most easily found,' and the Directory' 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 organizations 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.
