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."

Out of Sight! Out of Mind! Out of Business!
The importance of keeping firm and pro- duct names in the public eye is recognized by all business men. It is astonishing to see how a firm or product, however meritor- ious, will slip into the limbo of the forgot- ten if not persistently advertised.
The City Directory is the natural medium for keeping a business or product name in the spotlight. Insist on being well represented in its pages.
