JULY DIRECTORY IN
 ENTIRELY NEW FORM
New Book VIII Have Three Columns
 Instead of Two

The July Directory will appear in an entirely new form, both inside and out, measuring 9 3-S in- wide and Il 1-4 in. long, three columns being used on the side of the book instead of two as heretofore. The styles of typo have all been changed and represent selections from over one hundred samples. This type, which is believed to be much more 1egible than that which has been used in the past, was not decided upon until every directory in the courty had bee nexamined and. as a matter of fact, is different from all the types in the other books.
 Joseph E. Southerton, Directory Agent. in cooperation with A. F. Brooks, Commercial Engineer, origi- mated and designed the new cover. In changing the shape of the Telephone Directory the book follows the style of all the large companies in the country, and in addition is greatly re- duced in the nunbe of pages Owing to the fact that it had to be entirely reset, this throwing a great deal of work on the field as well as on head quarters, the book will not appear un- til August 9th instead of on June 23rd.
