DRY CLEANING TALK NO. l.
and
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

The term DRY Cleaning Is often
misconstrued- Many believe DRY

Of individual spots by local treatment
and indeed this belief has been given
birth by hundreds of pressing clubs,
clothes pressers" tailor shops. ETC.
whose most valuable asset is a sign
in the front door mistating that Dry
Cleaning" is done within
II may be a surprise TO many 20
learn that a thoroughly equipped
DRY Cleaning" plant often removes
as much as a small tea cup fun OF
dirt and grease from 4 single suit OF
clothes. So thorough a cleaning las
can only be given by one having the
extensive equipment necessary is ab-
solute insurance against spots reap
