Her husband Is the present state ; master of the Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus. '. Mrs. Smith told the women ; she has found the CDA pro ; gram to be an effective and satisfying means of perform- ing one's duties as a Catholic and as an American citizen, as well as being an excellent so- cial and recreational outlet, : She also explained that while the Knights of Colum bus , Council in Utica, New I York, was instrumental in founding the CDA, the two orders are completely separate - organizations. Their programs and goals are similar and they often co-operate on joint proj- - ects, but it is not necessary . that thefre be a Knight of Columbus in a woman's family before she can join CDA. T Neither is it required that her " husband be a Catholic. Sunday, April 12, has been set as the date for institution ' of the Medford court and ini- tiation of candidates.

It is known as a cut pile tab- ric, and " during! cleaning and fin- khina the smooth! pile threads must be kept in order. During wear the pile often be comes badly fr, ickorJ anrl must be straightened and smoothed by the cleaner. Pile threads dif fer in velvets. Some are merely an chored under one thread and are easily rerroved. Other velvets, where the pile is secured under two sets of threads, are much less vulnerable to shedding and dam age. Velvet at its best is what is known as one of the "fragile fab rics" and should be shown extra consideration in wear as well as being cleaned frequently. Many vqjvets today have been given crease or crush-resistance treatments and present less wrin kle removing problems in cleaning than those which have not been so treated. But all velvets require special cleaning -care and handling. You can safely send -us all your "fragile fabrics" for thorough cleaning, to keep them looking new longer ... and looking better ' on you. Remember, the best dressed people in town send their dry cleaning to us! We'll pick your garments up, clean them and re turn them to you in record time, at BIG Y CLEANERS, 1928 Table Rock Road.
