23MUNICIPAL PUBLICITY
24Advertising Saginaw
26An important function of the Directory is to set forth the characteristics and advantages of the city as a place of residence, as a business location, as an industrial site and as an educational centre. The Directory acts as a mirror, reflecting all that is noteworthy in the city in the above respects. In order to spread this information regarding the city broadcast over the country, the publishers place copies of this issue of the Directory in Directory Libraries which are maintained in all the larger cities of the country, where they are readily available for reference use by the public. There they serve as perpetual advertisements of Saginaw, for business men the country over realize that the City Directory represents the community as it really is.
