 parties to visit laundering establish
 ments. They always enjoy these trips. and have heard many of them say that .sthey had no idea that laundry was anything like what 1t Is, and that they could have spent a whole day most enjoyabIy in watching the differ ent processes-y
 They were surprised to see how many times collar must be handled and how carefully each opera tion must be performed. Then they wondered how all these different attentions could be given it for the modest price of from two and one half to three canEs. | The up-to-th he minute laundry pre- sents one of the most interesting of present-day economic problems. As a bulletin in laundry know so con- cdseIy states It, laundries are selling lcIeanliness

doubt find In your locality one of these laundries
 z They are generally known by the efficiency of their service, the quality of their output, and their interest in all matters pertaining to the general welfare of the community in which they live These men are modest; few of them advertise the fact that they are members of the L.. N. A., but pre- fer to let their work speak for them.
 Seek out one of these plants, and you will usually find, upon inquiry. that it is a member of the National Association. and it is proud of it.
 Now let us see what actually hap pens to the clothes we entrust to the laundry
 From the time they are placed in the collection-b bag to their arrival back home, they are not subjected to q sim gle process that would tend to inJure the most delicate fabric.
 On their arrival at the laundry, the packages are sorted into bins, accord ing to the nature of the work in them
 The next step in the process is per formed by several clean n-looking, hap py-faced young women.
 One of them opens the bag or pack age and assorts it's contents; another counts the pieces and records them on printed list. with blank spaces to be filled in with the number Of pieces of the different articles.
 The cleaner pieces do not require so much washing as those which are bad ly soi1ed, and are. handled separately. Silks and wools. as well as delicate colors, are washed by hand in the soft est of water and with the finest of soap. Nothing but white goods is ever boiled.
 The best work whether in launder- ing or in any other line of industry, cannot come from the dark cellar or the underground refuge. The kind of men and women who ought to care for your linen cannot be prevailed upon to work under such conditions
 The improvement in laundry meth ods has meant vast improvement in the standard of the employee.
 Many large 1aundries have their s<weIfare departmen ents," devoted to the help and advancement of theworkers. We will find this department in charge of a hearted. motherly wo- man who has a large sympathy in the problems of the young women under her care. The writer knows one prominent launderer whose own daugh- ter took special training to it her for this humane work
 Principles of absolute cleanliness must be instflIed
 l A high standard of sanitation must be set up and adhered to. All these things you should know. Women who have taken their stand upon questions of great public poli- cies have wrought important reforms. 1. They have won their fight for health ful milk in clean bottles; they have closed up unsanitary bakeries; they have battled successfu1ly against the short-welght grocers.
 Why should they not look to their laundry, and see that their linen is handled in 8 clean. light, wel1-ventilat- ed establis hment by men and women

 have tried to show you that the. Iaundries are doing their part to i'm prove conditions.
 The creed of the laundry business to- day may be summed up in three para graphs:
 seThat every piece of poor work that goes out Of the laundry brings back its own penalty;
 "That inefficient. underpaid, discon- tented employees are ruinOus extray- aganee, and not an economy That the dirty. in-lighted. 1l-ven- tlated, slovenIy laundry should be shunned, and the clean. bright, pro gressive laundry patronized.' ? Now, gentle reader, are you doing your part? Have you made it your business to find out if your laundry Is the high-grade institution l have de scribed
 The next time your laundry comes home. open your bundle yourself and examine each piece. You will be im- pressed with a freshness, a snow-white cleanliness, seldom found in the .shone wash. z Another thing that may i'm press you is the fact that here Is an organization equipped to handle osJ of your wash. You may be sending It only part of your work: but when yon find the right kind of laundry, you will have located an establishment that can handle every thing washable better. more carefully more cIeanly l than it can be done anywhere else. If you remember tho old-fashioned Mon day. the housefuI of steam the lunch con of left-overs favored with the heavy aroma of boiling clothes, you will be quick to appreciate the part the laundry has played in the pursuit of comfort
