ANCHORAGE, ALASKA
WARNS TRAPPERS OF
ALASKA, FUR BUYERS
_—i—
Alaskan trappers and others who
have furs to sell are warned by the
office of t^he delegate from Alaska that
they should investigate carefully the
claims of fur buyers in the states who
claim to pay the highest prices lor
furs.
Much dissatisfaction has arisen
over the practice in the past of ship
ping furs to houses in the states which
advertise through the mails that they
pay the highest prices for furs. In
most instances this claim has been
found to be untrue, says the letter.
“The criminal prosecution service
of the Postoffice department has fol
lowed up some of these fraudulent
transactions, but it is difficult to get
a criminal case against these dealers.
“There are many old established
fur houses in the United States where
furs may be sent and honest returns
made, and Alaskan shippers are ad
vised to patronize these establish
ments instead of responding to new
♦ advertisers before learning what their
\ commercial reputation is."
DESERT THRILLER TO BE
SHOWN AT LIBERTY TONIGHT
Another screen drama that finds
its climax in the torrid desert of the
Sahara will find it way to the screen
locally today when First National’s
“The Lady Who Lied’’ is to be the
attraction at the Liberty theatre.
Principal roles in this new produc
tion, which is based on the Hichens’
novel, /‘Snake Bite,” are portrayed
by Lew’is Stone, Virginia Valli and
Nita Naldi.
It is promised that desert scenes
which are a breath-taking reproduc
tion of the carnival at Venice, with
m
its gondola-covered lagoons, and Al
giers as magistically revealed at night,
w'hen that city’s pulse throbs at its
highest, punctuate the plot and add
a note of the gorgeous to the tempes
tuous culminating moments of the
play.
NOTICE OF CHANGE OF NAME OF
