Confidencein thegrowth of Kinston, in itswealth, industryand popula- tion, as well as in the advancement of its municipal and social activities, will be created as sections of this directory are consulted, for truly the directory is a mirror reflecting Kinston to the world. The enviable place occupied by Hill Directory Company's, Inc., di- rectories in offices, stores, libraries and homes throughout our country causes the publishers to forecast the belief that the Kinston directory will fulfill its mission as a source of authentic information of any and every kind pertaining to our city. With an unrivaled organization having the courteousandheartyco-operationofthebusinessand professionalmenand residents, thepublishersfeel thattheresultoftheirlaborwill meetwith the approval of every resklent of the city. POPULATION The estimated population of Kinston is 13,419, based on the numberof individual names in the alphabetical section of the Directory, with due allowance forwomen and children, whose names are not included. Terri- tory immediatelyadjacent, which is partofthecity, asfarasbusinessand social lifeareconcerned, isincluded in the Directory. FOUR MAJOR DEPARTMENTS Theseveral essential departments are arranged in the followingorder: The Buyers' Guide, pages 17 to 40, printed on tinted paper, contains theadvertisementsof theleading manufacturing, business and professional interests of Kinston. These pages will be found particularly interesting and instructive to the substantial elements of the city. The advertise- ments have been carefully grouped by departments and are indexed under headings descriptive of the business represented. This is reference adver- tising at its best, and as such merits a survey by all buyers keen to prime themselves on sources of supply. The city's activities, in many interest- ing phases, are interestingly pictured to reveal what it has in its show win- dow. In an ambitious and progressive community like Kinston the need of this kind of information readily at hand is very great and frequently pressing. General appreciation of this fact is evidenced by the liberal patronage the City Directory enjoys in the many fieldswhich it serves. 9 11iiiwmmiiiiuimiiiii—mi 10 INTRODUCTION—Continued. The Alphabetical List ofNames ofresidents, business firms, corpora- tions is included in pages41 to 260. (A new feature of this section is the inclusion ofwives' names in parenthesis following that of the husband.) The Street and Avenue Guide and Directory of Householders covers pages 261 to 300. In thissection the namesof thestreets and ave- nuesarearranged inalphabetical order; theresidencesand business houses are arranged numerically under the name of each street and avenue, and the names of householders and business concerns are placed opposite the numbers. The Classified Business Directory is included in pages 301 to 344. This department lists the various manufacturing, mercantile and pro- fessional interests in alphabetical order underappropriate headings. This feature constitutes an invaluable and indispensable epitome of the busi- ness interests of the community. "The Directory is the common inter- mediary between buyerand seller." As such it plays nosmall partin the daily doings of the business world. "More goods are bought and sold through the Classified Business Directory Section than through any other medium." MUNICIPAL PUBLICITY The Directory reflects the achievements and ambitions of the city, depicting in truthful terms what it has to offeras a place of residence, as a business location, as an industrial site, and as an educational center. To give emphasis to their desire to broadcast this information over the country, the publishers have placed 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 free public reference and serveasperpetualadvertisementsofKinston, forbusinessmen thecountry overrealizethattheCityDirectoryrepresentsthecommunityasitreallyis.
