Notice to Septic
Tank Ovners
There's nothing more embar
rassing than a septic tank, that
doesn't work! Usually there an
two reasons why they stop-up
and overflow (1) the tanks ar.
not cleaned at proper intervals;
(2) toilet tissue that does not
readily disintegrate may clog ths
drains and force them to back up!
Not all toilet tissues srs made
with the septic tank problem in
mind. The one that is MD
Toilet Tissue is scientifically
processed so that it absorbs water
completely and quickly.
Best advice: Consult your
County Health Department, your
plumber, or a septic tank servic
company, for advice on cleaning
your tank. Use MD Toilet Tissue!
Paper Fabric for
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.PJ Don't be
surprised if any day now. one of
the neighbors says, "Well, I
think I'll go paper myself a new
dress."
For paper is the latest material
to enter the fashion world.
And one designing consultant
foresees the day when a woman
can buy or make a fashion
able dress for $3 to $5, wear it
one, two or three times and toss
it into the wastepaper basket.
The material, basically paper
combined with rayon, nylon or
other fibers, is the development
of Kimberly-Clark, the manu
facturers who launched the
paper handkerchief in 1924. The
company says the material is as
flexible as a natural or syn
thetic fabric.
Vera de Give, the veteran de
sign consultant who pioneered
its use in clothes, said the ma
terial has the feel of fabric and
drapes or takes folds well.
"I've had clothing manufac
turers here who couldn't tell the
difference between a paper dress
and a similar style in cloth,"
she said.
Miss de Give first used the
material four years ago for the
Atomic Energy Commission,
which wanted a disposable but
comfortable coverall for indus
trial workers.
Recently, she made a sequinned
evening dress for an actress' ap
pearance on a television show.
The dress cost $4. "In fine fabric,
the same dress would have cost
$125," she said.
K i m b e r 1 y-C lark hasn't
dreamed up any fancy name for
the material. It's still known by
its laboratory name "K-2000."
A spokesman said the material
can be dyed or printed, and can
be made up any weight from
cheesecloth lightness to the bulk
