Page 6 Franklin Local Town Pages www.localtownpages.com October 2018 QUALITY continued from page 3 “Take a coffee stain,” Quay says. “There can be several components in that one stain: coffee, a sugar, a dairy product. Many off-the-shelf spot removers can’t handle those stains.” Other items are wet cleaned— washed in detergents, additives, and specialized machinery. Still others, most notably buttondown shirts, are destined for the laundry. And some garments are washed individually by hand with specialized additives and a lot of care and time. Some of the machines at Quality Cleaners are among the best in the business. Quay says that his BÖWE M26 dry cleaner machine is “the Rolls Royce of dry cleaning machines,” and he loves his Sankosha presses. So, why bring your clothes to a cleaner, when much of the work could be done at home if one has the time and the desire? Take ironing. It’s a relatively simple task—you haul out the board, plug in the iron, select a heat setting, and iron away. But it can take forever, and some items are too big to iron at home (plus it’s really hard to get that snappy pants crease like the dry cleaner provides). Instead of ironing at home, one can take advantage of Quality Cleaners’ experience, equipment, and technique. They use a press system with a slight vacuum in the ironing board that keeps the garment from moving. Quay and his team know when to apply steam, when to apply heat, and when to let the garment cool (that’s how they get that snappy pants crease!) Quay works constantly to improve his business’s efficiency. For example, existing customers can drop off their items in about thirty seconds, saving them a few minutes with each visit. He also took a hard look at all of the store’s functions and relocated some to decrease time spent going from station to station. He’s tweaked some of his formulations, like enzyme ingesters, to lessen the physical impact on garments and extend their life. Back to that question: why bring your clothes to Quality Cleaners? Because they’re dedicated, they innovate, they save you time, and they can extend the life of your garments. Plus, your clothes will look way better than after you do them yourself. Quality Cleaners is open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. They offer free pickup and delivery and also provide alterations. Give them a call at (508) 376-9100, or visit them at www.qualitycleanersmillis.com. Dean College Presents: Scapino!, October 25-28, 2018 The School of the Arts at Dean College will perform Scapino!, beginning Thursday, October 25 through Sunday, October 28, 2018. Inspired by the French playwright Molière’s original 1671 play, Les Fourberies de Scapin, Frank Dunlop and Jim Dale have heightened Molière’s comedy with slapstick and burlesque, resulting in a story of the most engaging nonsense. Set in contemporary Naples, Italy, two sons, two daughters, and two fathers find themselves mixed up in the crafty Scapino’s plot to solve romantic problems faced by two of his friends. A fast-talking, quick-thinking scamp, Scapino cleverly manipulates and cajoles everyone into doing what he intends them to do. The Dean College production of Scapino! will take place in the Main Stage in the Campus Center at Dean College, 109 West Central Street, Franklin at 7:30 p.m. Thursday – Saturday and 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. General admission is $22, Seniors $12 and Children $7. To learn more and purchase tickets, visit www.dean.edu/ boxoffice. Worried about rising Mortgage Rates? Tina M.

October 2018 Franklin Local Town Pages www.localtownpages.com Page 7 First Universalist Society in Franklin Welcomes Rev. Eric Cherry as New Minister Beloved Rev. Carol Rosine, Minister Emeritus, Retires after 29 Years of Service The First Universalist Society in Franklin (FUSF), located at 262 Chestnut Street in Franklin, recently welcomed Reverend Eric Cherry as its new permanent minister. Cherry is the Director of the International Office of the Unitarian Universalist Association, and he brings 26 years of experience as a youth minister, chaplain, teacher and parish minister. “My life and my vocation have been indelibly shaped by Unitarian Universalism,” says Rev. Cherry, who fills the vacancy of the church’s beloved Reverend Carol Rosine, Minister Emeritus, who is retiring after 29 years of service. “My earliest memories are of the embracing kindness and caring guidance provided by the UU Fellowship of Stony Brook, in Long Island, NY, which was at the center of my family’s life while I was growing up. And, our religious tradition has been the principled center of my life through the years that have followed. I regard this as a precious, unearned gift - receiving it compels me to provide faithful leadership that assures that many will experience that gift as well.” “The search committee was deeply drawn to his passion for making church relevant in this day and age and helping each of us, and especially our youth, find lives of purpose and meaning,” said FUSF Search Committee chair Vicki Coates. “Rev. Cherry brings a unique combination of strong and varied experiences as both a parish minister and a Director of the International Office at the Unitarian Universalist Association.” “Through my denominational service, I’ve come to understand the dynamics of ministry and the capacity of supporting organizations in new ways - both in the US and abroad,” says Rev. Cherry. “I’ve developed strength and deep experience in administration, staff management, and stewardship. And, I’ve had the privilege to develop relationships with global U/U and interfaith leaders whose partnership expands the strength and impact of our religious commitments. I’m excited to bring these experiences to my next congregational ministry.” Upon accepting FUSF’s offer to become their next settled minister, Rev. Cherry reiterated his call to: • to create worship that changes lives • to celebrate - in the broadest sense of the word - so that the power of joy and hope are continually present • to care for the fearful, the lost and the broken-hearted • to invite attention to and thoroughly support faith development for people of all ages • to faithfully confront systems of injustice near and far • to stewardship of the administrative needs of a strong and growing faith community • to be fully present and welcoming to the Town of Franklin and neighboring communities as a strong, reliable, center of religious strength. The First Universalist Society in Franklin is a growing congregation of nearly 235 members and friends. Its history in the Franklin area dates to November 22, 1856. We are diverse in faith, ethnicity, history, and spirituality, but aligned in our desire to make a difference. We have a track record of standing on the side of love, justice, and peace.
