Editor o! {the Black Fox Magazine. has a ‘very interesting article in the May number entitled “Fur Style Show Draws Huge Crowds". Following are extracts fmm it: "Advance .styles of silver fox and mink ‘scarfs, coats and capes were pre- sented recently in a twice-daily chow on the mam floor of the massive Grand Central Palace.

Crowds of men and women from the metropolitan area asweii las from the middle west. and New England attended. Altogethenncar- iy 100.000 visitors passed through the doors during lllL‘ week. More than $200000 worth of furs were ex- hibited at each of the Associat- ion's shows through the co-opcra- tiou of inziiiy of New Ycirk‘s most _prominent retailers and manu- facturcrs. An interesting aspect o! the ev- ent. was a. style survey conducted by the Association aimed at dis- covering the preferences consumer as to color phase in a one or two skin sliver fox scarf.

What to do about the great quantities of silver fox catalogued on the auction sales has many people thinking. When it is ad- vertised that such and such a sale hos 30.000 slivers the effect. on the buyer is not apt lo raise his en- thusiasm. On the other hand the Limited Montreal. Que. New Brunswick Saint John l quantities force him to the con- clusion that. the average price will of the . [of other fur farmers. The following suggestion by W. Chester S. McLure would have the efIeot of placing the poorer skins in the category of "sundry furs”. and as these poorer skins consti- tute proportions ranging from 10 to 20 per cent of moat. oflerings. they would lesson the number of silvers catalogued very appreciably and that would have a good psy- chological eflecf. on the buyer. Here are Mr. MoLureb views. "In looking over the numerous auction sales’ catalogues of silver fox. one sees a considerable quan- tity of silvers graded as Inws and Interiors. These are mostly made up of badly damaged skins, pieces, summer skins of adults and pups, and as the grade designates ‘In- teriors’. Practically all of these ‘Inferiors are used as trimmings and repairs. However, they are catalogued as slivers and create the impression that the offering of silvers are larger than they really are. Breeders and shippers might. urge on the auction houses to catalogue these Inferior grades under ‘Sundry Furs’ and sell on the regular sale". Fur farming in Germany has reached a saturation point as re- gards further sales for breeding purposes and the home raised pro- geny of fur bearers are now find- ing their way to the German auc- tion sales. Due to the scarcity of foreign furs because of exchange difficulties. German furs find a ready sale. At. the last Ravage auction held the middle of Decem- 'ber. 1936. 4.500 silver fox and 1,500 .mlnks were offered and sold. These lall originated from German fur farmers and were of good quality. Germanfur farming is confined mostly to the raising of silver fox- es and mink and the quality of the animals is understood to com- pure very well with those on fur farms in other countries. Compg. tiiion is mostly with Scandinavian and Russian fur farmers, who by means of trading cartels have a certain amount. of access to the German market and their lower feed costs permit. them certain price advantages. American fox breeders are com- plaining of late litters this season, but most of them do not find fault with that. because they clnim that there is not so much danger of losses. Mink farmers as well as fox farmers are of the opinion that the crop in the United States will be definitely smaller this year. What is the earliest you have ever heard of silver fox pups be- lilg dosed for ivorms? Up until o, week ago I thought about fifteen days was the eariieshbut last Sat. urday Frank McKay. Royalty, in- formed me that he had dosed "We pups eight days old um. were badly infested with worms‘ two in the litter having died from that cause. The liquid fox rem- edy proved quite successful and the youngsters are. at last reports. doing well. I believe fox breeders would bt‘. well advised another year to ex- amine all pups at not later than ""1119?" ilflYF- and if neceasarv dose them then or at latest 2A1 days. Where worms are present and allowed to develop until the pup is 28 days it is not only very difTicull. to thoroughly rid the {Ox of them but there is also the fact that a great deal of damage has been done to the gall bladder. liv- or. stomach and other organs of lllP YOX by the presence of ‘the worms. The other dny I was told about n fox pup that -died when five weeks old whose intestines. gall bladder. nnd liver were in ter- rible condition diie to worms. The recent fox thefts point out the necessity of incrcnsed vigilance on our part to prevent repetitions. The fact. that burglaries can he successfully carried out is liable to engender a feeling of confldenceln gentry of that nature and make il. Review 0f Collegiate iilub Activities Another term is about to close 1n the annals o! 0011980 life. I-nd it is interesting to cast a glance over the program which the Catholic Collegiate Club has carried out. according to the plan terminated at the beginning of the term. At. the organization meeting in 80P- tomber the following were eiecwd to office: President. Stephan Mo- Mllian; vice Pres, Blanche Grif- mh; sedy, Grace Campbell! ‘Pres- surer, Florence Dalton; Moderator. Rev. Wilfrid MbCu-die. Following the plan of the previ- you; year, Thursday afternoons have been devoted to eetings. si- temately featuring an address. with musical program and n. class 1n Christian Doctrine conducted by the Chaplain. Having 1n mind the fact that there can be no ideal- ly perfect education. which is not Christian education, Rev. Father McCardle has been untiring in his zeal to impart to the students. through a series of instructions in morals and dogma, a solid founda- tion m ethics, thus premrlns them to take their places in the com- munity. as worthy citizens in the l coming‘ year. l The literary meetings were of a. ihigh educational value, and Rev. Dr. McMahon was the first speak- er. The aims and objects of the C. C. Club were explained to the students by the Reverend speaker, who in his ‘inspiring and helpful manner urged the young people to obtain this objective, by their earnest co-operatlcn. Addresses along patriotic lines were given by Prof. W. J. McDonald of P. W. slan. who kindly consented to speak on two occasions. During the visit to Charlottetown of Rev. Fr. .Morrl.son, Missionary. the students i were honored wiht his presence at one of their meetings. Of great interest. was his telling of the pro- {igress made to Christianize pagan i China. during the short. time in which he had labored there; and in hearing the “Our Father" re- cited in tlie Chinese language by the learned missionary. Mr. George Gillespie, M.A., Prof. of English at St. Dunstan‘s Uni- versity was the speaker at the final literary meeting of the term. and his address on “How reporters get news for their papers" was re- plete with interest to his audience. Through the medium o! this pro- gram our students have had the opportunity of receiving the great benefits of the treasure house, which lies in the realm of litera- ture and are duly appreciative. During the latter part of the term, debates were initiated and these have proved to be an inter- esting nnd splendid method of teaching expression and self-as- surance so esentiai in public speaking.

That's the essence oi the story of John Coulter, whose one-act play "The House in the Quiet Glen" won first pr ze in the fifth annual Do- minion Drama. Festival. just con- cluded at Ottawa. The play was almost a certainty that more thefts will be attempted. Fox ranchers would do iveli to take every pre- caution withln their power fopre- vent. thefts and also to use every endeavor to trace those that have occurred. Where anyone has any information that can be of use in the authorities they should 1m- part it. quickly. In a. little hamlet in the Uniide States recently. a sliver fox farm was raided and 23 pups stolen. By the (‘o-operation neighbors and the police. the culprit was i0- cated within 24 hours. pups re- turned and the burglar sent to the hoosegow. Don't forget now is the time to clean up pens and surroundings and disinfect dens. houses. etc. before the warm weather arrivics. By using a good coal tar disinfec- tant you will be spared the nec- essity of treating for fleas. In our ranch we have not seen any fleas for the past two years because we are constant users of disinfectants. Sterling Macbean, well known fox rancher. North River Road. had his fox pups tattooed yester- day. so that in event of theft they could be traced. Borne of the pups were very little more than three weeks old. It is the earliest date that tattooing has ever been done In Prince Edward Island recent thefts of silver fox pups is caus- ing great indignation among ran- chers. At Nose Creek.
