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.

-thus assuring you the ultimate service that skill and care can produce in the way of City Directories or other reference media, and providing protection against fraudulent advertising schemes which operate under the name of Directories.
The following "Standards of Practice," adopted at the inception of the Association of North American Directory Publishers in 1898, and strictly adhered 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 addi- tional 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 standard- ize 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 cir- culation, placing the test of reference publicity upon its accessibility to seek- ers, rather than on the number of copies sold.
8. To co-operate with approved or- ganizations and individuals engaged in creative advertising work.
9. To avoid unfair competition.
10. To determine what is the high- est and largest function of Directories in public service, and then to strive in every legitimate way to promote that function.
$100 Reward will be paid by the Association of North American Directory Publishers for the arrest and conviction of any person or persons engaged in the publishing, collecting or canvassing for any fraudulent or fake directories.
