The CITY DIRECTORY has a Definite Place in the Business Man's POST-WAR PLANS
The average market is nothing like it was at the out- break of the war. The extent of change has been tre- mendous. Use the new City Directory to reanalyze the city-to see what it has gained and lost-to check the movements and trends-to secure a record of the vast army of removals-to organize for merchandising new products and services.
The City Directory is an Unbiased Picture That Tells a Story

WHY A BUYERS' GUIDE?
IT IS CUSTOMARY TO INCLUDE A BUYERS' GUIDE IN THE CITY DIRECTORY BECAUSE:
It gives business firms the opportunity to elaborate upon a description of their products and services impossible in the limited space of regular Alphabetical and Classified listings.
* The Buyers' Guide is a necessary supplement to the regular listings; it is good City Directory information ... EXTENDED

TERMITE CONTROL
TERMITES Are Prevalent Throughout Rhode Island
An unsuspected and concealed destruction of wooden timbers in the understructures of a large number of houses and other buildings is taking place. Large expense for future repairs may be avoided by finding the infestations promptly and taking steps to apply TERMINIX BONDED INSULATION to stop the attacks. Over 100 Providence and Rhode Island structures are now termite-protected with Terminix. We make FREE INSPECTIONS AND REPORTS on request. No obligation. Phone GAspee 5676
