Does Your Advertisement Appear in This Directory ?
If Not, Perhaps Your Neighbor's Does MORAL-Keep An Eye On Your Competitor
A WORD MORE :- Neither Lend, Borrow Nor Steal- This Applies to Directories
DO not borrow your neighbor's Directory, some borrowers never return; the borrowing habit is bad and one which will grow, keep it up and you may next want to borrow your neighbor's cooking stove; there is just about as much sense in one as the other.
GET A DIRECTORY OF YOUR OWN. A Word to the Wise Should be Sufficient.
