be proud Of the fine establishment he
has built up and it will well repay
a visit from anyone.
The latest addition is a cement
engine room 16x24 with a new hori-
zontal boiler for the engine that fur
nishes power to the whole laundry.
The process through which clothes
go in the cleansing operation is re-
markably interesting. They are
washed in great revolving tubs that
clean them thoroughly. The wiring
ing is in small centrifugal driers that,
being turned at high speed, throw
out nearly all the water without
damage to clothes. Then the auto
matte ironers are operated by skilled
workmen, smoothing collars, cuffs and
shirts marvelously we'll and at swift
rate. Ladies' shirtwaists and all
dainty material are ironed by hand
with much care which accounts for
the popularity of the Abilene Steam
laundry among the ladies of the city.
The newest machines are used in
every department. Collars are made
smooth by patent devices that must
be seen to be understood. A com
plete system for keeping account o.
over 1000 packages of laundry thai
are handled every week, coming from
So towns from Chapman to the Colo
RADIO line, has been perfected. Sc
we'll is it arranged that it is very rare
that even collar is misplaced.
Electric irons are used in the finish
ing departments, thus saving heat
This is but one of the new ideas
carried out by Mr.. Goodwin in max
ing his laundry perfect.
The pure Sand Springs water is
used throughout the processes, this
of itself meaning great deal in &C.
complishing good work. Fifteen per-
sons are employed.
Abilene people should take pride
in patronizing home institutions and
especially such worthy institution
as the steam laundry. Not a pack
age of laundry should ever be sent

HOW ABOUT "MALT?"

The drugstores were notified this
afternoon by Mayor Rice that they
cannot sell "malt" which has been a

that it contains A per cent of alcohol
which is about the same as beer.
