After you have read and heard and seen a lot of urgent advertising inviting you to have your clothes cleaned with a new dry cleaning process called Desco, And all of asudden you receive an unusually desirable invitation to spend a week-end at very swell summer resort, And you find that all of your clothes are badly in need of expert cleaning and pressing, And you 'phone 904 and ask the folks at the Union Laundry to call and get your things, And after they have promptly called and taken your clothes you begin to worry for fear you won't lock as snappy as you really ought to, And vou wonder how you can manage to buy new clothes, And you keep hoping and praying that the Desco Dry Cleaning Process is really as good as your friends say it is, And then when your clothes come back look- ing fust as fresh and bright as they did the day vou bought them, You feel so gosh darned good you just throw your arms around the man who delivers your things and hug him joyfully.
