Information in the mass
seems like a dull proposition
but when we have a need
of some person or thing
nothing interests us more than getting information about that person or thing
This directory
looks like a big book to be walked around or fallen over or put out of the way, until you need some in- formation it contains, and then it becomes the handiest thing around the place.
You can never tell when you are going to want to know something this book will tell you. When you do, you will probably be in a hurry. Why not spend a little time looking it over, so when the need arises you will know just where to look?
It may be you will find a lot of information you did not know was here before, that you would have spent a lot of time and trouble to find in other ways, and
you will increase your efficiency just that much

A PUBLIC SERVICE PUBLICATION
Few lines of Business have such a varied clientele as has the City Directory. It serves high and low, rich and poor, with equal im- partiality and with profit to all.
It answers the questions What? and Who? which arise in daily Business and fills a posi- tion occupied by no other publication under the sun. It is often used from its issue until it falls to pieces and seldom will you find one entirely discarded while its leaves cling to- gether. A publication which is used so uni- versally and whose life is so long, must appeal to every shrewd business man as a most de- sirable advertising medium.
