Permit
Miss ELectricty
to do the
family laundry

Monday is no longer a
dreaded day of the week
in the many households,
because SO many wise
Housekeepers permit Miss
Electricity to rub their
clothes, iron their house
hold linen and other
things, and a drying ma
chine to eliminate all the
endless taking things out
in the yard, hanging them
up, putting up and taking
down clothes lines and all
that sort Of thing.
Really, an efficient laun-
dry such as one finds in
the
Wanamaker
Housekeeping Exhibit
is a joy to watch in opera
ton.
The electric washer
works like a charm. To use the
demonstrator's words. it washes
the thickest of blankets or the
daintiest of laces without injur-
ing them and without the slight
est physical exertion."
Just put the clothes, water
and soap in the clothes washer,
turn on the electricity and then
sort of stand around while or
do something else while the
clothes are being washed.
The wringer attachment is
marvellous thing too, one
feeds" in the clothes, and
doesn't become "a worn-out,
tired wreck" turning wringer
by the hour-just press but
ton and off it goes, clothes get
wrung out in no time.
The clothes dryer
eliminates all the waste of time
waiting for clothes to dry, and.
of course, makes trips into the
sun, wind, cold or heat unneces-
sary. This dryer bleaches
clothes. too. Dryerettes, as they
are called, cost according to
size.
Ironing machines
are great time savers. They
aren't mangles at all, but run
on the mangle principle. When
one gets accustomed to working
them, that is after trying it out
a few times. one becomes very
clever and manages to iron
mems shirts, house dresses, chill
dren's dresses and all sorts of
things. Imagine doing j tedi-
Gus back-breaking, hot, hard
days ironing in an hour or so.
The demonstrations in the
Household Exhibit show that it
only takes "a few cents worth
of electricity" to operate the
machine several hours-quite
inexpensive. don't you think"
We can safely say that an iron
ing machine successfully man
ages 80 per cent. of the family
ironing.

open with bang and go with zip.
In the opening scene an advertisement
for thoroughly efficient safe-blower,
who is used to taking risks" Is shown,
and the expectations thus aroused are
never disappointed.
The story is based ON one of the
Boston Blaclie stories by Jack Boyle
which appeared in the Red Book
magazine. It deals with the girls de-
termination to aid her sweetheart, a
United States secret service agent,
whose professional career is threat
ened with ruin unless he can get the
contents Of certain safe. His Off
cial position prevents him from TAX
ing the most direct means Of accom-
plishing this, but his sweetheart,
Doris Macon, is under no restrictions.
Doris, played by Miss Dean. hires
Boston Blackie" to go with her and
blow the safe. They are surprised by
the unexpected return OF the owner
and fights, flights and surprises fol-
low each other In rapid order. The
play moves with eyer-increasing
speed to an entirely unexpected eli

HANKINScN BUNCH PLAY
THE BEST POLO

The well.known Hankinson aggrega.
ton of auto polo players will enter,
tain the Iowa public at the coming
Iowa State Fair. Mr.. Hankinson is
the man who originated auto polo and
contributed it to the worlds list OF
sports. And we will all agree that II
was no mean contribution.
There have been imitators Of the
Hankinson players. Of course, those
who fondly imagine they are just as
good as the originators Of the game,
but 80 far they have all fallen short
Of the mark, short Of the extraordinary
dash and proficiency demonstrated by
the Hankinson teams, just as numer.
Gus aspirants for championship honors
in the squared circle have failed to
achieve the science Of Jim Cerbett and
lanky Bob Fitzslmmons.
The Iowa public enjoys auto polo. 1t
Is bully game, as full of thrills and
excitement as it is possible to crowd
any one entertainment. 1t is game
that is just as fresh and exciting to-
day as it was yesterday. The state
fair officials consider themselves for
tunate in being able to book this at
traction again this year, and were able
to do so only by making contract
early In the year, for after making a
tour of foreign countries as well as Wis
iting every state in this country the
fame of these players is such that they
are in wide demand.
