An Invitation by Shoor Bros. to the Legitimate Furniture Stores of Hartford and Vicinity. --to help protect the customer in his purchase of furniture N Saturday, (January 6) the Federal Trade Com- mission announced its approval of rules adopted bv the New York Retail Furniture Stores to “NAME THE WOODS” entering into all the furniture sold to the public. S the result of this meetino, and consistent with its standing as “Hartford’s Leading Furniture Store”, Shoor Bros. issues an invitation to the legiti- mate Furniture Stores of Hartford and vicinity to adopt this “NAME THE WOODS” policy. THE principles embodied in these rules are advo- cated by the Better Business Bureaus throughout the country. (A Better Business Bureau is in process of formation in Hartford). We urge support of these principles, and we recognize this action as one more move to safeguard the public against incorrect de- scription and other misleading statements in newspa- per furniture advertisements. WHAT IT MEANS AME THE WO0ODS” policy is practically self- explanatory. In the future, the stores which adopt these rules will in their advertising and oral descriptions, indicate plainly to the purchaser the ex» act nature of the wood or woods of which the furni- ture he proposes to buy is constructed. THE purchaser will know whether the furniture he buys is of walnut or mahogany; or whether wal- nut and gumwood; or mahogany and birch; or some other combination of woods. Furniture which is veneered (veneering heing the achievement of sur- face beauty by means of a panel built of a number of layers of ply wood), will be so described. HOOR BROS. are glad to support the “NAME THE WOODS” poliey. In fact, this has been our prac- ticlg in the past, and we shall continue to adhere to this policy. WE recognize this practice as being for the public interest, and for insuring accurate information to the publie. WE invite the legitimate furniture stores of Hartford and vicinity to support us in the “NAME THE WOODS" policy because it is well in line with the idea of service upon which the business procedure of all good stores is founded. %@W@%P j e Pf::v T:d HARTEORD'S Auvl LEADING FURNITURE STORE sylum 196-206 Trumbull
