The literal difference between
water cleaning Laundering, as It Is
known byl and dry cleaning IL that
by the former process water Ii used
and by the latter q dry liquid Il the
solvent, commonly called gasoline.
The trade term, dry cleaning, gets is
name from sthe absence Of water.
which does not mean, however, that
fabrics are not made wet" in the
cleaning process, for they are I'M.
nlersed quite like the method OF
water laundering. In dry cleaning

removes ordinary soil in fabric with.
out subJecting II to the effects pro.
duced by wetting a garment or fabric
In water; however, dry cleaning does
not remove all stains without the use
of water.
The commercial dry cleaner resorts
to the use Of water and certain spot.
ting liquids when dry cleaning fails
to clean. Common stains in fabrics
that can be removed only with water
are perspiration, sugar. soft drinks,
and such other soil az may be ex-
GREETED by the human body. Though
the dry cleaner uses water in re-
freshing fabrics, It Is applied in com.
bination with other agents or by

He started his career in sport A. a
16~-year-0ld football coach and in 81
years, BY shifting his allegiance from

president Of the American League.
Barnard has been called hard

e., but his friends insist that he j.
only fair" He never tried to make
a good fellow" Of himself, but in
25 years OF dealing with ball players
none Of the athletes who paused for
a time in Cleveland and passed on
entertained hard feeling toward him.
He was more closely associated with
Napoleon Lajoie than any other play
er connected with the Cleveland
club. During the five years the
great Lajoie managed the Indians,
Barnard was still travelling with the
club and they roomed together.

player for whom he entertained the
greatest admiration.

Cobb first and was preJudiced IN
his favor kept him from ~bracketing
Iris Speaker with him rs the
greatest player" Barnard set HIM
apart with Lajoie and Cobb as the
greatest trio he has known IN the
game.
Barnard has always been an ad-
mirer III Ban Johnson's bulldog
fighting spirit.
AS president he may be expected
20 stand firmly behind his umpires.
As Cleveland executive, Barnard
mas been proud Of his record for
fair dealing.
