Modern Honsekeeper
Has Changed Wash Day

Although housekeeping is the most
conservative OF all trades or profess

a change and Improvement has come in

rule of having it done on Monday, rain

once upon a time house, wives went TO
bed early on Sunday evening, that they
might rise even before the birds to do
the family washing. It wa9 not uncOm-
mon, according to the memory of some
women, TO rise as early as O'Clock
in order that by breakfast hour the
family linen might be hung to dry.
This was often done without a taste
Of food to give the worker strength
for her task. The reward for this ex-
erUon was the satisfaction of being
among the first TO have Ter washing
out. and such an accomplishment added
to ones reputation as a housekeeper-
It is a mystery how these women
lived through such hard work and IN
seasOnable hours. and a yet greater
wonder why they ever did such a piece
Of fOOlishness. There were six days
in the week then as now and Il ira
day morning hustle was followed by
hours later IN the day that did not count
for much in work. The reason why this
custom existed so long may be explained
by the desire 10 get the clothing worn

The modern housekeeper takes Mon
day for picking up and preparing for
Tuesday. This day is often the time for
having a little company or TO make
calls, or do any OF the leftover things
that one is trying to get time for. Even
some of the public iaundries now send
their wagons TO collect family washing
on Tuesday forenoon, because IL is so
rare 20 find the bundles and baskets
