BEWARE TOO
MUCH XMAS SPIRIT
Shoppers in the Valley are
warned against the holiday gyps,
schemes, rackets and promotions
which figures around Yuletime.
These sharp operators take ad
vantage of the charitable spirit
which abounds during this season
and they accumulate illegal pro
fits from unsuspecting shoppers.
Four main areas require special
care and alertness for con
sumers:
Mail order schemes using mis
leading advertisement; profes
sional promoters seeking charity
donations; unordered merchan
dise rackets, and special Xmas
‘sales’.
