Fifteen years ago colored neg'igee,
or plain bosom shirts. were seldom
worn. Launderers looked at them in
askance when they came in to be
Numbered, and many expressed dis
gust that they were made or worn NJ
all. Few shirts were made carefully
and the fabric OF many was nimsy
and the colors of such variety OF
hues that dip in water would MAKE

laundries as claims Of $l.sS or e

The question OF municipal laundries
has been discussed In an informai
way by the members OF the associa-
ton attending the convention. al
though the matter has not come up
during the sessions Of the body 20
far. Sifted down. the consensus OF
opinion among the delegates is that
municipalities attempting to conduct
laundries are undoubtedly going out
Of their way for an occupation or
diversion. whichever 1t may be term
ed. as they say.
On this subject the National I4aun-
dry journal carries the following In
teresting article in its current num-
Der:
With the establishing sof a fully
equipped municipal laundry in Kan
sas City. Mo-. there arises the ques-
ton Of whether or not municipality
can conduct an establishment that
will more or Tess compete with an
industry operated within that NUM-
cipality by private interests. 1t would
seem as rather illogical that NUM-
cipal government should, by taxation,
force the general laundry industry to
help support the municipal institu-
ton operated In such . manner ~ to
be a competitor. II IL only natural.
lem and the solution for It will prob
ably not be forthcoming for some

The new municipal laundry at Kan
sas City has been Installed on the
basement floor of the new $3S,0O0
building that has been erected by the
Thomas II. Swope settlement, and is
In charge OF J. f. Chain, superinten.
dent OF the settlement institution.
That this municipal laundry will
compete with the general laundry
business Of Kansas City is brought
forth as fact from statement
made by Mr.. Chain to a Kansas City
newspaper. in which he said: I'm the
basement Of the new building a place
has been set aside for model iaun-
dry and all supplies will be furnish
ed to the patrons free of charge. 1t

no place at home for such matters.
