j At a meeting la*'t winter which
iwas presided over bv President
Humphrey of the Federal Trade
Commission, the representatives of
the Fur Trade Industry, SO percent
of which was represented, agreed
to abandon the use of false and
misleading names for manufactur
ed furs in advertising, says the Am
erican Game Protective Associa
tion.
It has been the practive for
: many manufacturers and dealers
to use any name they might con
| sider suitable or attractive and that
j would tend to help sell the goods.
(The public is entitled to know what
it is buying and should not be sold
(“beaver”, “mink” or “seal” which is
1 in reality rabbit, house cat or
muskrat. That the fur industry has
agreed to discontinue this sort of
misleading advertising is to its
credit- and will be appreciated by
the public. Neither is it likely that
the fur trade will be unfavorably
affected.
The agreement entered into at
'the conference above referred to
included the following:
In describing a fur the correct
name must be the last word of the
description, and if any dye or blend
j is used the word “dyed” or “blend
led” must be inserted between the
'name of the fur simulated and the
itrue name. Thus “Hudson Seal”
I would be correctly designated as
j “Seal-dyed muskrat”.
I All furs shaded, blended, tipped,
l dyed or pointed must be described
accordingly, as: “Black-dyed Fox”
of “Pointed Fox”
In referring to a country or sec
tion in the name of a fur the cor
rect country of origin must be used,
and trademarks must not be, by in
tent or otherwise, hiisleadlng or
capable of misinterpretation.

! One or more misstatements con
j cerning Alaska would seem to make
! little difference but now and then
they are so ridiculous they are in
teresting. Editor Charles F. San
ford of the Hyder Weekly Herald
one time of the Nome Nugget
grows caustic concerning a story in
the True Story Magazine which is
| fantastic in the extreme in the
author’s absence of knowledge of
j things or geography in Alaska. To
imake it more pointed, the author
|was awarded a $1,000 prize for t
story which is reviewed by Sanftid
:s follows:
The title of this fantastic tale is
‘‘Both Sides of the Story.” In so
i far as it deals with Alaska, the
| yarn is fiction of the most fanciful
| type, although apparently based on
! a recent Alaska incident involving
! the accidental shooting of an Alas
| Iran woman. Its mot amazing fea
ture, however, it its protrayal of
1 not only colossal ignorance of Alas
ka on the part of the unnamed
author but also of still more
I amazing absence f knowledge of
1 Alaskan geography on the part of
the editor who accepted the tale
as a ‘‘true story” and the judges
who selected it for the $1,000 prize
award.
Briefly related, the story deals
with the adventures of a doctor’s
wife who left her home in a fit of
pique, caught the first train out
and journeyed on the same identi
cal train all the way to Juneau, dis
daining such trifles as steamships
and in total disregard of the hun
dreds of miles of ocean and the
total absence of all rail communica
tions between Alaska and the
States.
Then along comes the doctor
husband in search of his wife and |
also lands in Juneau. Whether he
j also ‘‘took the train” or not, the1

impossible as his arrant wife’s- rail

bought himself “an old, second

he didn’t stop until “nearly to
