The material is usually made from a warp heavily sized before weaving and in the weaving operation a very close, tight fabric is constructed, making the interstices between the threads very small to prevent the escape of dust from the bag. Chemicals may be used to shrink the fabric and make the interstices smaller. The Pastor Says: Every renter should become the owner of his own home.

As they wandered more and more green and purple and yellow and black bamboo trees were to be seen, growing so tall and yet always so graceful. And now, as it was getting darker, the lanterns along the way were being lighted, candles were flickering and the flowered pagodas, the swinging lanterns, the orchards of mulberry trees, the low voices of the people, the funny old water buffaloes and the quiet friendliness of Yangtze made David feel as though he were in a magic land.
