Excerpt from Bradentown, Florida, City Directory, 1918-1919, Vol. 2: Including Manatee, Manatee County, Palmetto and Sarasota; Containing a General Alphabetical List of Names, a Classified Business Directory, a Street Directory and Much Useful Miscellaneous Information The business world has awakened to the realization of this need; and there are few towns of any consequence that do not have a City Directory. Just how up-to-date or complete the Directory is, depends in most cases upon the support accorded to the publishers, provided, of course, that they know their business. It is an old saying that you can judge a man by the clothes he wears - whether this be true or not matters little; we all know that it is generally done; often no doubt to the disadvantage of some one. Just as much as man is judged by his clothes, just so much is the business life and activities of a town or community judged by its Directory; because the Directory is the most complete and the only recognized standard book of reference regarding the citizens of a com munity, their address, occupation or kind of business in which they are engaged. When you consult a Directory of a town, you can easily determine if it is up to the standard, and if you find it to be well pat ronized, you need not be told that it belongs to a live community the fact is self-evident.
