These are official City Directories and may be con­ sulted free for single reference by the general public. Your local City Di­ rectory is also on file in Directory Libraries in other cities for free public use Every City must have a Directory not only to give the names and addresses of its citizens, but also to give that character of progressiveness that would record the names of its people for historical purposes. Everyone has fore­ fathers, 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 BIOGRAPmCAL HISTORY OF THE MASSES IS CONTAINED IN THE CITY DIRECTORY AND NO OTHER PLACE. That stamps its importance to the family. To make your history, watch your directory registration to see that it accurately records your position in life from year to year. THE CIRCULATION OF THE CITY DIRECTORY EXTENDS TO EVERY CITIZEN OF TillS CITY. The Information Bureaus of the City are for FREE public use and your merchant, banker, physician, dentist, hotel, restaur­ ant and garage man expect that the masses of the people shall, without hesita­ tion, ask for "a look at the City Directory."
