ITHACA Compiled by H. A. Manning Company, with the assistance of the Ithaca Chamber of Commerce The publishers of this Directory consider it advisable and desirable to set forth the following paragraphs, in as simple and attractive a manner as possible, to enable the readers of these descriptive pages to comprehend as many of the outstanding features of Ithaca as limited space permits. The local resident, the visitor, and the distant reader about Ithaca wish to gain an impression of Ithaca as well as to have at hand a statistical reference regarding the city and its people. It is the publisher's aim to portray as much of Ithaca's charm and greatness as is consistent with facts. We believe with John Cotton Dana, the great librarian, that "Good citizenship springs from a knowledge about one's own community." The teachings of the City Map and the City Directory about localities, districts, street locations, street changes, growth of sections and general city changes are of great importance to property owners, old residents, new residents and school children. Racial characteristics of names in the Directory enable the consultant to gain a very comprehensive knowledge of the inhabitants of the eity and many other educational facts. Notable men all through history have contributed their philosophy as to the value of knowledge about the home town. Here is one from Abraham Lincoln: "I like to see a man proud of the place in which he lives. I like to see a man live so that his place will be proud of him." In studying the following, remember that the Ithaca City Directory disseminates this information far and wide where this Directory represents Ithaca in the Free Directory Library Exchange System of North America. The Ithaca City Directory, with over 500 closely printed pages, is the City of Ithaca in book form; its family and social life, business and industrial life is portrayed in great detail. The publishers invite and accept constructive criticism and suggestions for the improvement of the Directory for the benefit of Ithaca and all interested. LOCATION-The City of Ithaca, located in the heart of the Finger Lakes Region of Central New York State at the head of beautiful Cayuga Lake, is famous for four things: 1. Its educational institutions 2. Its position as the agricultural center of the northeast United States 3. Its rugged and picturesque scenic beauty, and 4. Its many progressive small industries. Known far and wide as the home of Cornell University and Ithaca College, Ithaca is noted for its culture and refined atmosphere in all activities of business and social life. Its latitude is 42° 27' north and its longitude is 76° 29' west. Located in the center of Western New York State, it is 240 miles south to New York City; Boston is 400 miles east, Albany 175 miles east, Buffalo is 150 miles west, Elmira 35 miles south, Syracuse 55 miles northeast and Rochester 88 miles northwest

TOPOGRAPHY-Ithaca is in a land of lakes and hills, deep ravines and towering cliffs, waterfalls and c~taracts, The city itself is bordered on three sides by hills cut through by the deep gorges of Six Mile, Cascadilla and Fall Creeks which abound with cascades and waterfalls, a~d on the fourth side by Cayuga Lake, all providing a most picturesque setting, Climate ranges 1D temperature from an :\\'erage minimwn of 26° to an average maximum of 69°. This comparatively close range of minimum and maximum temperatures results from Ithaca's enviable position at the head of 40-mile long Cayuga Lake. The elevation of the lake, the lowest point in the city is 383 feet abo\'e sea level and Cornell University campus, the highest part of the cIty IS approximately 800 feet above sea level.
"HIGH ABOVE CAYUGA'S WATERS" HISTORICAL-Ithaca was settled in 1789, ten years after the visit of a detaclunent of 200 men commanded by Col. Dearborn from the expeditionary force of General Sullivan first visited the area on September 23, 1779. It was named Ithaca by Simeon DeWitt, Surveyor General under Washington in 1795 after the ancient Greek capitol of Ithaca. It was incorporated as a village in 1821, chartered as a city in 1888 and has been the county seat of Tompkins County since the county's formation in 1818. In days long gone past, Ithaca was a center of inland water transportation as well as the salt center of New York State. Ithaca celebrated in 1939 its 150th Anniversary.

MORE TRUE TODAY than
YESTERDAY
~I;
What Abe Lincoln said so well years ago applies to our living today even more. Consider his further comments:
l: "You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. "You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. "You cannot help strong men by tearing down big men. "You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer S"You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging ~J"i';; class hatred. ~~"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. '''You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money. ! "You cannot build character and courage by taking away man's .,1 initiative and independence. "You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves."

CHURCHES 1953-MANNING'S ITHACA DIRECTORy-1953
WITH A GRAND TOTAL OF TWENTY-ONE CHURCHES, representing all of the leading denominations, Ithaca could properly be called a
City
of Churches
These noble edifices placed at intervals about the city add much to its attractiveness and charm. They are a factor that makes for the re!iuy assimilation into the religious and social life of the community and hastens the time required to make citizens of the strangers who come to us. The Church of today is the great institution for the planting of good thoughts in the minds of the people and stands as a bulwark against degrading influences that surround us. Therefore, let us give a thought to these institutions that form so great a part of our city life, and in visualizing our future greatness as a city let us remember their value as

MASONIC TEMPLE
After having met and rented quarters for a number of years the Masons finally erected a Temple of their own at the corner of North Cayuga and East
Seneca Streets. The Temple, one of the finest in this section of the State, was dedicated in October 1926. It has furnished a proper meeting place to inculcate the teachings of Masonry so that its traditions may be carried on. The various bodies and organizations are always glad to welcome visiting Masons or their wives. FIDELITY LODGE No. 51 F. & A. M., 1st and 3rd Tuesdays HOBASCO LODGE No. 716 F. & A.

MANUFACTURERS 1953-MANNING'S ITHACA DIRECTORy-1953
Manufacturing From the period of the early 1800's until the rise of the Cornell University era of the 1870's the industrial activity of Ithaca equaled any community in New York State west of the Hudson River, with its intensity and its gambling spirit towards new ventures. The records show that around 1820 to 1830 the following products were made here: paper, woolens, cotton, flour, plaster, grist, machines and repairing, tanning of leather and hides, liquor distilling, potash, etc., so that in the "30's" there were nearly 100 industries operating in Ithaca. The period from 1840 to 1870 was a day of great activity in industrial Ithaca that hasn't ever been equaled before or since. Some of the products made here at that time were: paper, iron foundry products, agricultural implements, glass, woolens, steamboats, sailboats and rowboats, hosiery, pianos, organs, passenger cars, railroad car repair shops, machine work, horse rakes, wagons, threshing machines, well drills, fruit packing, paints, pottery, rakes, cultivators, lime kilns, etc. The transfer of coal and grain shipments from rail to water transportation at Ithaca formed the basis of much industry; coal transfer from Cayuga and Susquehanna Railroad (now Lackawanna) and then other railroads that now form the Lehigh, made Ithaca an important freight center. There were four grain elevators here.
A MODERN INDUSTRIAL PLANT After the 1870 period the industrial situation gradually changed with the time but continued active. Some of the products made were: guns, calendar clocks, salt, typewriters, wallpaper, incubators, aircraft, couplings, chains, clutches, electric clocks, adding machines, aerometers, laboratory apparatus, paper, power drive chains, mechanical stokers, leather handbags, cardboard boxes, cement, etc. The high class of citizenship in Ithaca makes it desirable for industry and the future holds much in store for this city along development of manufacturing. Water transportation to the Atlantic seaboard is available, also into the Great Lakes. Land with both water and rail facilities is available. &15

THE BEST ADVERTISING MEDIUM IS THE
CITY DIRECTORY Because It Is Used The Most To Find Just Such Information You Most Wish To Have The Public Know
FIRST-what line of goods you handle. SECOND-where you are located. Pick up a City Directory anywhere, and almost invariably you can tell who the progressive, up-to-date merchants and professional men are. There are many brands of clothing, shoes, dry goods, groceries, etc., and some prefer one kind, some another. What better place to state your special brands than in the City Directory?
