HAVE YOU A LITTLE SCRUBMOBILE
IN YOUR HOME?.
BY BIDDY Rye

Breathes there woman with
knees SO proud
They never TO the moor have bowed
in the necessary but painful duty
OF scrubbing7
"A few such lucky ones may exist.
but for most persons of female per.
suasion there are times and occasions
W c n home-naking involves plain.
downright floor scrubblng.
Such will welcome with delight
simple, homemade efficiency ex-
pert"--the scrubmoblc.
The scrubmobiIe is a small wooden
tray on wheels. and its purpose Is TO
save the scrubber the energy and
strength wasted In pushing and pull.
ing heavy pail OF water over the
floor. Also besides saving the woman.
II saves the floor. as the smooth cas-
ters OF wood or rubber spare the
floor surface from scratches.
Used by the worker who prefers
the brush and scrub cloth 10 the mop.
the scrubmobile is a blessing. for a
light push with the finger will guide
the heavy pail wherever desired with
the minimum OF effort. Scrubbing
with the mop is equally aided by the
scrubmobile. A long handled mop or
broom set in the bucket pushes the
scrubmobile about easily and the
worker Is saved the labor Of STOPPING
and lifting the pail from place TO
place.
The scrubmobilc may be made OF
few pieces OF kindling or broken
boxes. or II may be the proud prod.
uct OF the manual training school hoy
who wishes to do mother a real ser
vice.
For the bottom OF the tray use
board IL or II inches square and one
inch thick. For the rim or sides OF
the tray which prevent the pail from
sliding of. use two strips Of wood IL
inches long. one inch wide and one
inch thick. Nail the strips along op-
posite sides and finish tho two re.
naming sides with two io-inch strips
OF the same dimensions.
Screw four casters in nj the four
corners OF the tray. and tho scrub
mobile IL complete II rubber casters
are used the expense will be little
more. but the scrubmobile will have
the advantage of being noiseless and
scratchless.
The scrubmobile Is light weight.
small and easily set out OF the way
when not in use. II the base OF the
tray is made slightly larger II Is con
venient for carrying about the mop,
brush and sorubcloth as well as the
pail itself

Unless you are employed dur

wrong of you to shift the re-
sponsibility OF your children on

get beyond your control at their
ages. You are at fault some
where. You have not been firm
enough with them, or perhaps
inconsistent. The next time
they run away, tie them up,
giving them room enough TO sit
down or stand up. and don't let
them loose at the first signs OF
repentance. When they lie, de-
