Back-to-School
Days
In a few days, the school bell, after many
weeks of silence, will be tolling forth the
summons, “Back to school.” To mother,
it will mean the beginning of more work and
less help around the house.
Clothes to be gotten into shape—youngsters to be dressed and
fussed over—little folks too busy and excited to be of much use
to mother.
Fortunately for mother, she has no longer to worry about the
clean clothes problem—each week she is sending her family wash
to us. The time once given to slaving over the wash-tub and
wrestling with heavy boilers and baskets, are now devoted to
better care of the children and the home.
The spic-and-spanness so noticeable in school children today
is a laundry product. Why not YOU give yourself and the kiddies
the benefit of it. A minute at the phone will do the work.
