President A. G. Gulbransen in his formal announce-

preciation for service in which the company will bear
the cost of insurance and there will be no charges
either direct or indirect to employes. "This insurance
will be in force so long as you remain in the com-
pany's service, and the protection it affords you will
not affect in any way any compensation to which
you may be entitled under the State Compensation
Act," said Mr. Gulbransen.

CHICAGO
Valuable things for the piano exporter to know
are the laws concerning trade-marks everywhere.
They are so many that John H. Ruege and W. B.
Graham took 1,007 pages of a book published by the"
Trade-Mark Law Publishing Co., New York, to tell
them all. The book is a collection in English of the
texts of the trade-mark laws of 110 countries, colon-
ies, and protectorates, compiled largely from material
in the library of William Wallace White, of the New
York bar, and with his cooperation. The authors
state that only the basic laws and amendments are
given for each country, since the supplementary
features and provisions in. the way of regulations,
etc., are so numerous as to make their inclusion im-
practicable. An effort has been made to gather the
material from authoritative sources. The work should
appeal to trade-mark attorneys, exporters, manufac-
tinuously five years or more will immediately be in-
sured for the full $1,000. The Equitable Life Assur-
ance Society has agreed that no medical examination
is required, and no employe is barred by reason of the
nature of his or her occupation. Those of you who
have experienced difficulty in passing an examination
will understand how big a concession w T e have been
able to get for our employes. In addition to the life
insurance which is payable at death, to beneficiary
named by employe, there is a further benefit of $150
for funeral expenses. There is also provision for
settlement in full of the amount of insurance in case
of complete disability."
turers, and others interested in the protection of
trade-marks. • In this connection it may be worth
pointing out that Commerce Reports contains every
week current information in regard to trade-mark
changes in foreign countries, compiled by the Division
of Foreign Tariffs.
TO MOVE IN MILWAUKEE.
The Kreiter Piano Co., 181 Third street, Milwau-
kee, Wis., will move about January 1st to the four-
story building at 310-312 West Water street, which
has been purchased and is now being redecorated and
painted at a cost of about $9,000. The move is neces-
sitated by the purchase of the present home of the
company by the Central Drug Co. The drug house,
at 182 Third street, must vacate before May 1, 1923,
due to the fact that the Wisconsin Hotel' Co. has ac-
quired the property for an addition to the hotel.
