A. Manning Company, with the assistance of the Ithaca Chamber of Commerce

The publishers of this Directorv consider it advisable and desirable to set forth the follow­ ing paragraphs, in as simple and attractive a manner as possible, to enable the readers of these descriptive pages to comprehend as many of the outstanding features of Ithaca as limited space permits. The local resident, the visitor, and the distant reader about Ithaca wish to gain an impression of Ithaca as well as to have at hand a statistical reference regarding the city and its people. It is the publisher's aim to portray as much of Ithaca's charm and great­ ness as is consistent with facts. We believe with John Cotton Dana, the great librarian, that "Good citIzenship springs from a knowledge about one's own community." The teachings of the City Map and the City Directory about localities. districts, street locations, street changes, growth of sections and general city changes are of great importance to property owners, old residents, new residents and school children. Racial characteristics of names in the Directory enable the consultant to gain a very comprehensive knowledge of the inhabitants of the eity and many other educational facts. Nctable men all through history have contributed their philosophy as to the value of knowledge about the home town. Here is one from Abraham Lincoln: "I like to see a man proud of the place in which he lives. I like to see a man live so that his place will be proud of him." In studying the following, remember that the Ithaca City Directory disseminates this information far and wide where this Directory represents Ithaca in the Free Directory Library Exchange System of North America. The Ithaca City Directory, with over 500 closely printed pages, is the City of Ithaca in book form; its family and social life, business and industrial life is portrayed in great detaIl. The publishers invite and accept constructive criticism and suggestions for the improvement of the Directory for the benefit of Ithaca and all interested.

LOCATION-The City of Ithaca, located in the heart of the Finger Lakes Region of Central New York State at the head of beautiful Cayuga Lake, is famous for four things: 1.

The city itself is bordered on three sides by hills cut through by the deep gorges of Six Mile.

Climate ranges in temperature from an average minimum of 26° to an average maximum of 69°. This comparatively close range of minimum and maximum temperatures results from Ithaca's enviable position at the head of 40-miJe long Cayuga Lake.

This is the Sign of the Progressive Merchant

Every City must have a Directory not only to give the names and ad­ dresses of its citizens, but also to give that character of progressiveness that would record the names of its people for historical purposes. Everyone has forefathers, these forefathers have made the history of this country; some­ day you will be the forefather and your descendants can,.visualize your life's work quicker through the registration in the Directory of your time than in any other way. The BIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY OF THE MASSES IS CONTAINED IN THE CITY DIRECTORY AND IN NO OTHER PLACE. That stamps its importance to the family. To make your history, watch your cfB'eetory registration to see thatitaccurately records your position in life from ,... to yeu. 34 1954-MANNING's ITHACA DIRECTORy-1954

These noble edifices placed at intervals about the city add much to its attractiveness and charm.

They are a factor that makes for the ready assimilation into the religious and social life of the community and hastens the time required to make citizens of the strangers who come to us.

The Church of today is the great institution for the planting of good thoughts in the minds of the people and stands as a bulwark against degrading influences that surround us.

Therefore, let us give a thought to these institutions that form so great a part of our city life, and in visualizing our future greatness as a city let us remember their value as § ;tactor for l1rogrt~~

Mter having met and rented quarters for a number of years the Masons finally erected a Temple of their own at the corner of North Cayuga and East Seneca Streets. The Temple, one of the finest in this section of the State, was dedicated in October 1926. It has furnished a proper meeting place to incul­ cate the teachings of Masonry so that its traditions may be carried on.

The various bodies and organizations are always glad to welcome visiting Masons or their wives.
