-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 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 de- partments.


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 standardize 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.
