CITY DIRECTORY
To Be PUBLISHED !,
BY THE CAPITAL
Arduous Task Of Compiling Data
Under Way And Business
People Can Help
is USEFUL COMPENDIUM

Recognizing the great need that ex
lists in Annapolis for a city directory
that shall be thoroughly up-to date.
compiled after the latest models of
such publications and embodying all
the usual departments of information,
the Capital Publishing Company has
begun the ardous work of producing
such valuable and necessary aid to
the business interests of Annapolis and
Anne Arundel county.
The capital city of the State has
been for almost ten years without
directory of any kind, aud that it may
no longer in tins respect remain behind
progressive cities the Annapolis City
Directory will shortly be given to what
il is confidently hoped will prove to bo
an appreciatiye public.
Few persons, other than those direct
ly concerned can have an idea of the
immense amount of labor involved in
such a compilation, properly carried
out.
Believing that Annapolis business
men will not fail to sense the import
ance of the undertaking, it is conf
IDENTIFY hoped that the necessary steps
in the work-such as the gathering of
names and getting of advertisements
will be willingly assisted by those with
whom the final benefits of the COM
pletcd work will rest.
1t is our aim that no name that
should be included shall be omitted,
and it is hoped that no business man
or woman of Annapolis will withhold
an adequate advertisement of his or
her business from the pages of the di-
rectory.
The success of such an indispensable
aid to business as the city directory is
largely in the hands of the business
men themselves.
