A receptionist would then an
SWer either the doctor is busy
or he is out. IF she tells t b e
salesman the doctor is not there,
he would then say, Here is the
syrup which DR.. ordered.
The fraud first came to the
attention of the festival board
when two letters were received
here from professional men in
Toledo who had been stuck with
the imitation.
The letters were addressed to
the Chardon Maple Co., but were
turned over to the festival board
when the postoffice could find
no such firm here. Although the
board has no direct connection
in the case, they feel it is their
responsibility to protect the good
name Of Geauga Maple Syrup
Members have been serving as
clearing house for information
received.
The first letters were received
from DR.. Paul Holly, and the
John C. Fotfh and Son Funeral
Home, both Of Toledo,
Both complained that syrup
was delivered to their homes
while away. The seller said they
had been ordered and he was
paid by persons at home at that
time.
DR.. Holly, who is coroner of
Lucas County and a member Of
the Toledo Better Business Bur-
eau, had written that he h a d
never ordered syrup from any,
one. His maid paid $3.50 for the
can of syrup" the standard
price being charged by the op-
orator everywhere.
Thomas L. White, member of
the festival board, talked to DR..
Holly in Toledo and took some
samples from the can. He gave
the doctor a can of real maple
syrup.
The liquid in the cans is not
heavy enough to be real maple
syrup, Mrs. Wedge said. She
said tests performed in US. gov
ernment laboratories in Philadel-
phia and at Ohio State Univer-
sity reveal the sugar content in
the "syrup" is less than that re-
quired.
Tests are now underway to de-
termine if the sugar which is
present is really maple sugar.
Mrs. Wedge said she and most
members of the festival board
had tasted the phony syrup. Her
comment?
