Italians Back
 Mahaney's Bill
B Societies to Hold Meetings and Register Protest
 Ask Delay in Scheduled Date of Hearing

The interest taken in the hearing schedule to take place at Hartford next Tuesday on the petition asking that the fixed charge on gas and elec- tricity be wiped out, is seen in mary ways but in none perhaps so forcibiy as in the fact that thirty-two Italian clubs and societies have requested Representative Mahaney to have the hearing postponed until some future date so that these organizations may have time to meet and take action on this matter.
 The Sociea Fratellanza Italian has taken the initiative in getting up this meeting which will be held in Liberty hall next Friday night, Fer ruary 13.
 Waterbury people who have opinions to which they would like to give expression before the legis- lative committees should get together and make plans to see that they are represented at these sessions. One might say that our representatives are there and that they should mirror the mind of their constitu. tents. but that is not sufficient. Senators and representatives wko present bills are not always per- sonally in favor of them. and though they might, it gives strength to their measures to have people go there and n1Orse them at the hearings called for this purpose.
 The different clubs in Waterbury and other towns in the state should get together and delegate commit tees to attend these sessions of the legislative committees. It is not convenient for large bodies to make trip to Hartford. but if they would appoint committees to represent them it would show where they take the ground that it is no use 70 because, as they believe, the legis- anyway.

Prize For Oldest
 Piece Of E Furniture
Household Science Institute Seeks Antique Moair Type
 for 1933 Worlds Fair Exhibit

use or non-use at the present time are not important, providing it Is in good condition. The owner of the piece selected will be awarded two hundred and fifty dollars and the piece itself will be exhibited with other old time furniture during the Worlds Fair at Chicago in 1883.
 Back of the institutes offer is the desire on the part of Grace ViaH Gray, it's director, to ascertain the longevity of mohair. Althought in- numerab1e pieces of mohair-cov- cred furniture and mohair rugs have seen many years of hard daily deliberately injured no instance has yet been found of a mohair fabric ever wearing through.
 Waterburyians who feel that they
 have something of interest should communicate with Mrs Grace Wall Gray, Household Science Institute. $. Dearborn St., Chicago. Illinois, giving the history of the piece they have in mind and all facts concern ing age. color, condition and other pertinent information. Mrs Gray will then decide whether the article is the one wanted and make arr engagements for shipping it to Chi- cago.
 History does not tell just when it was first discovered that mohair- the long, silky fleece of the Angora
 goat-made exceedingly beautiful and durable fabrics. But this is known: mohair fabrics are of great antiquity and have always been looked upon as rare and valuable; Prior to 1881, when George B. and Louis E. Goodall of Sanford, Maine, perfected a process for weaving mo- hair on power looms. the manufac- ture of mohair velvet was largely confined to Germany and France. where it was made by hand. Espe- cially famed is mohair velvet or vel mo as it is called for short, as an up- holstery fabric. Years of hard day in-and -day-out service leave the deep, rich pile unmarred, it's co1ors fresD and undimmed. Unless one wilfully cuts or burns it, it is as nearly indestructible as any woven material can be. This is due largely to the fact that all the rub and wear comes on the top ends or loops of these pile flores. whereas in smooth surfaced materials the rib comes on the sides of the individual flbers. Also, because the mohair fibers are smooth faced, the dust and dirt do not easily collect on them and usu- ally a light brushing is all that is re- quired to keep mohair fresh and clean. Housewives' fear of moths
 had been ended by the recent per
 lection of mill mothproofing pro-
 cess that makes mohair fabric im-
 mune to damage by these pests. Aside from it's use in furniture, mohair velvet is the favored fabric ] used in the upholstery of automo- piles, railroad cars, in the making of fine rugs, robes, draperies, cloth- ing and many other articles.

are not largely attended by parties in favor of what the petitions ask for these on whom devoives the duty of making recommendations .9 the general assembly cannot act in- telligentiy on them. and if they de- eide to submit unfavorable reports nobody should blame them.
 Very little is being said about the report of the charter commissions but this .s due to the fact that 1t IS generally believed that if the matter is taken seriously at Hartford. st will be referred back to the people for referndum vote. If that be so iI will be time enough to discuss # when it comes before the people. It is different with the other petit tions and those interested should govern their conduct accordingly.
