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.

Please! Do Not Lend Your CITY DIRECTORY
IT COSTS YOU MONEY-Every Time it Is Loaned
The practice ol lending your City Directory, in o great measure, is responsible for the increasing cost ol Directory Service.
The reason is :-
There is a definite cost involved in the moking 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 obsorb 1/100th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.
If there were 1000 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to obsorb 1/1000th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.
From which it is obvious that the GREATER the number ol subscribers -the LESSER the cost to each.
And
It is also obvious that the LESSER the number ol subscribers-the GREATER the cost to eoch.
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.

COMMUNITY SPIRIT
The Keystone of Progress
Stone by stone an arch is built with the keystone giving it strength and binding it together. The process is the same in building a Finer Carolina town.
Recreational and educational facilities, municipal services, attractive shopping areas, social and service organizations, well-kept houses and lawns form a firm foundation. But - the "keystone" of progress is the SPIRIT of the people in the town or community. No real lasting progress can be made without it.
Mrs. Fannie Foscue, chairman of the Maysville, N. C., Finer Carolina Program in 1956, explained this SPIRIT in a letter to all those who participated in that program. She wrote, "The community spirit that you have given to others, the spirit of cooperation, the desire to see each other succeed - these you have gained. These attitudes, this friendliness, this cooperation, far outshine any- thing you have built . .. these build a true com- munity."
HELPING TO BUILD la Finer Carolina
It takes many people with the right kind of com- munity spirit to build a Finer Carolina town. Offer your services now and help place the KEYSTONE in your town's plan for progress.
