HINT S
THE MODERN HOME
IA
BY
FRANCES
FORTENBERRY
Home Economics
Director Miss. Power
q Light Co.

One of the major work centers
of the home is the Laundry. Yet
despite it's Importance in carrying
out one of the big tasks in home
making, it has never been given
much thought. Most laundries are
poorly lighted, poorly ventilated,
and very uninteresting places in
which to work. However, we r
beginning to find architects and
builders paying more attention to
this very important room.
Let's see what should be con-
sidered for a we'll planned laundry
LOCATION: A great many
homemakers have expressed the
Idea of a laundry adjacent to the
kitchen. This room could be a util-
ity room and used also for sewing.
Wherever the laundry must be
located, it a be efficiently plan
ned and made a very attractive
place in which to work. No matter
how large or small the house, il
is possible to have a convenient
modern laundry. Space, however.
will determine the size and type
of laundry.
EQUIPMENT: In order to do
laundry work, good equipment is
very important. With today's mod
n inventions, home-making no
longer need be a laborious task.
With the automatic washer, the
clothes can be soaked, washed,
rinsed, and dampdried by a turn
of a dial. The hands need never
touch the water and there is no
problem of wet floors. Actually,
the homemaker can be in another
part of the house doing some other
chore and return when the cycle
is completed, the machine having
shut off automatically.
At one time, it was thought the
iron had to be very heavy to do
a good ironing job. Remember
1t is the contact of the heat with
the dampenec garment that e
moves the wrinkles, not the pres
sure or weight. So don't wear
yourself out pressing down. Let
a lightweight iron do the job for
you.
Almost as important as the
equipment itself is it's proper ar
rangement. Just as in a kitchen,
the preparation of a meal follows
along in a logical procedure, SO
too. in a laundry, things should
be carried out in a logical STEP
saving work sequence. You might
follow this arrangement: a sort
ing table. automatic washer, dryer,
ironing equipment. and then a
table or rack to hold all the
freshly ironed garments.
LIGHTING: Adequate lighting
is extremely important in a well
planned laundry. A good source
of central lighting for general IL
Elimination must be supplied. Be-
sides this, there must be supple
mentary lighting at the washer,
dryer, ironing area, and any other
work surface. This will make your
work more pleasant and your
laundry nor attractive.
The A-B-C's for easy, pleasant
washdays r a well located, well
equipped. well lighted laundry.

q ; ; !! v! Is! Is!

People of New York had a sur
prise last week. They could act
ually see what the middle of the
streets looked like. This was
due to the taxi strike, during
which about four-fifths of the
$4,000 cabs of the city were off
the streets, making midtown traf-
fic SO light that it was a real plea
sure for private car drivers to
cruise along the thoroughfares in
stead of fearing a bumper would
be knocked off at every turn. AS
a matter of fact, it seemed to me
that enough cabs were present
anyway, and it might well be a
good thing if the others would just
continue to stay off the streets
from now on.
