MOHA|R IS CLOTH

Hung With Wells Made
From Hair of Goats.

| IMAGINE your surprise if you
walked into a shop today and
asked for purple dress, hat or tie
and were told that it was a color
exclusively reserved for the Pres
ident and his Cabinet! Or wanted
to purchase a chair and found that
only members in the society Blue
Book were entitled to such lux
uries. That would have been the
case years back, when purple was
color for kings only, and only the
nobility were accorded the priv
ilege of chairs.
In the same way, mOhair, a mate
rial made from the fleece Of the an
CORA goat, was once the privilege
Of royalty and quite unknown to
the commoner. Back in 1881 b. c.,
King Solomon made use of this
luxurious material for his royal
robes and ordered the wells of the
famous Temple to be hung with
cloth from the hair of the goat"
And for centuries to come, mOhair
was used only in the palaces of the
rich and mighty, for draperies,
hangings and fine uphOlsteries. To

"The fact that our work
has been stamped with the
approval Of this society
which eXerts such a pro-
found influence upon geo
graphical science and edu-
cation throughout the world
will send all of us back into
the desert with enthusiasm to
meet the problems of fur
ther exploration.
Exploration has of neces-
sity entered a new phase.
The great pioneer lines of
discovery have been thrown
across the continents in every
direction; now only a few
comparatively small area of
the earth's surface remain
unknown. The task of the
future is to fill in the blank
spaces on the worlds map
and to study intensively the
little-known regions of which
there are many; to learn
what has been the history
of their making and what
they can contribute to sci

velmo is no less cherished but
within the reach of every private
citizen. The business man COM
muteS to his office in a railway
coach whose seats are upholstered
in the familiar red or green mo-
hair velvet At night, he throws
himself into an easy chair or day
enport finished with this luxurious
pile fabric He takes his family
driving in a car lined in the same
material and throws a lap-rug of
luxurious mohair velvet over their
knees, taking his right to the best
as a matter of course, in true
American fashion.
The mohair of long ago, how
ever, priced as it was by kings and
potentateS, was not the rich, pile
fabric that is available today.
Science has perfected the means Of
taking out most of the kemp from
the fleece and weaving the silky
hair into a fabric whose luster and
beauty vie with its durability and
comfort Because OF the unique
physical structure of the individual
fibers, mohair takes perfect, non
fading dye. AS mohair is woven
on cotton warp which takes a
different shade of dye and must be
dyed separately, most effective
twO-tone color combinations are
obtained. Mohair velvet is also
made in a variety Of hand-blocked
patterns, with a cut-pile or in an
interesting loop-and-pile weave that
makes for endless variety of pat
terms and effects.
While the chief application of
mohair is for furniture, automobile
and railway coach upholstery, it
is also used for clothing, draperies,
theatre curtains, miniature golf
courses, stuffed animals, trimmings
and a variety Of other uses.
