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

Two important symbols are used in your City Directory. The symbol "r," before an address stands for "Resident." That person resides at that address but is not the head of the family or family head. The symbol "h" stands for "Householder"-the person in whose name the home is occupied.

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."
