The Home of Good Directories


COMPILING DEPARTMENT


The City Directory has become a universal necessity in looking up new pros- pects, in purchasing supplies, and in marketing products. Our experience of over eighty years-our reputation for accuracy, our large force of experienced help and our complete equipment for the work, all guarantee the best in directory compilation. Don't forget that directory advertising supplements and rounds out all your other advertising by giving the most explicit directions how to find you.


ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT


Put-"We are listed in the Directory" in all your advertising copy. Ad- dresses are often forgotten or mislaid, though the name is remembered. The firm that is properly registered in all branches of its industry is wise.


DIRECT ADVERTISING DIVISION 111 SUMMER ST., BOSTON, MASS.


Addressing the right people in the search for new business means a saving of Time, Postage, Labor, Guess Work, Stationery, and results in more profits to you. You want your mailing lists accurate-That's the kind we make. Ask us to tell you about this branch of our business.


Ask Sampson & Murdock Company about the City Directory, the book of many uses.

The Sign Over Your Door


is a good thing, isn't it? You would not think of doing business without it.


But it is only seen by those who pass your way


If you could put a sign where everyone could see it would it interest you?


The City Directory


is where people look for you when they want to do business. You should make it easy for them to find you, by putting such information as a buyer wants, in the Directory properly indexed under all headings where he might look for you.


To be properly registered costs less than to be left out
