. INTRODUCTORY
This edition of The Lexington City Directory marks the
sixth year of its publication by this Company, and is presented
with the assurance that it will meet with approval and appre-
ciation of our patrons and the general public. A complete
canvass has been made of the City and outlying suburbs by
experienced and competent enumerators, and every effort has
been made to produce a work that will be in keeping with the
progress of the City. In its general scope and plan of construc-
tion, the present edition of the directory follows the same
general arrangement as heretofore, and the greatest care has
been exercised to obtain accurate data, and make the directory
an unfailing guide to the city. We desire to call attention to
the Street and Avenue Guide and Directory of Householders.
n We have had this part of the directory set in smaller type than
heretofore. This makes the book somewhat smaller than the
previous issue, but we feel that our patrons will {ind it more
· · convenient as the information is in a more compact form.
It will interest our patrons to know that we maintain a
directory library in all the principal cities of the country, and
a copy of the Lexington book is on file at each of these libraries
for the use of the public.
’ With sincere thanks for the patronage of the business
community and the aid of the citizens in giving the desired
information for the directory, we are,
Respectfully,
R. L. POLK & CO.,
Publishers.
