That is the best reason for the pre-eminent position ivhich this store occupies at the present time. Q\The newest things are always here first. The wchoicest values— the best qualities are alivays here. The unusual price features ivhich the action of trade in its devious channel from maker to consumer pro­ duces, are also found in abundance at McCurdy's. And because our friends know that this is so, and can alivays rely upon it being so, ive have been successful in building up the largest garment and millinery business in Rochester. (H, Little things make for large successes. With us the small details haue alivays been of transcending importance. We carry large stocks. We have most excellent__store service. Distribution facilities are perfectly organized. And still ive alivays look after the little things, and see some little way to improve every day. Of course, ive are ambitious. We look forivard hopefully to a bigger and better store—to still larger facilities—to broader and more comprehensive merchandising in future. But it is chiefly for the purpose of serving you better and better as Rochester grows in size and importance McCurdy (§f Norwell Co. Rochester, N. Y.

Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County · Miscellaneous Directories Qreface THE fifth issue of the &orije£fter Wittt JBoofe possesses some features which we trust will entitle it to retain the high place in public favor that has been accorded its predecessors. We desire especially to thank our lady patrons for their cordial appreciation of our efforts. Neither time nor money has been spared to make this work as complete and valuable as possible. The difficulty attending the compiling of such a book can be easily appreciated; and we therefore trust that any omissions will be brought to our notice, that they may be corrected in future. We hope to make the ISltlC I^OOfe as nearly perfect as it is possible to make such a volume. We do not claim the IBlue JSook is either a City Directory or absolutely an Elite Directory; neither do we pretend to pass upon the social or financial standing of the parties whose names are contained therein. It is simply a compilation of about two thousand names of the most prominent householders of Rochester and suburbs, published in the most convenient form for reference by our lady patrons. The title, "JSUtlE JBoofe," is given the work because of its blue cover. It does not refer to blue blood, as many people suppose. Webster's definition of Blue Book is as follows: " Blue Book—a book containing a list of fashionable addresses." Please send any information you may have that will aid in keeping the records correct, to Dau Publishing Co., 54 West 22d Street, New York City. ,fH£ PUBLISHERS Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County · Miscellaneous Directories Jfursi importer anb iHanufacturtr of ii^igf) 4Brabe furg 66 East Avenue Home Phone 1967 Rochester, N.
