A Tip From Your: l
Cleaner
l
DON’T DRY CLEAN
AT HOME v
It is not safe to dry-clean in,
your home. The use of a high‘ i
-ly inflammable fluid invites dis-
aster, and even non—explosive or
noninflammable cleaning fluids
are not safe to use in lingo quan-
tities, as the vapors from them
are toxic if inhaled to any ex—
tent. However. it is safe to use
these noninflammablc fluids in
the small quantities required for
removing stains, if the work is
done in a well-ventilated room.
-Another reason for not attempt—
ing dry—cleaning at home is that
good work cannot be done. Dry—
cleaning is really a Washing
process, using cleaning fluid in«
stead_of soap and water. Large
quantities of cleaning fluid. spee—
i'al washing machines for thor—
ough cleaning and rinsing, and
equipment for clarifying the fluid
are needed. If the fluid is not
clarified. the cleaning process be—
c0mesan expensive job. Spec—
ial equipment is needed also for
pressing and reshaping gar—
ments. Only the good dry—clean—
.r is equipped to do all this.
ltogether. it is safer. much
more satisfactory. and more eco—
nomical. to send your clothes to
a good cleaner.

recent appointment, of Burwell Banta as Director
of Highways by Governor Langlie, Wltlfl the pros-

Mason County than has been shown in recent
years. i
