Are Washdays Necessary in Winter? There was a time, back in the days of stone hatchets, when wornan was hardier than she is today. A biting wind, damp air end euch underfoot did not so much endanger her then. But is this exposure necessary now? Is woman exercising her best judgment in hang- ing clothes on the line in winter weather? Is man showing chivalry when he permits it? A simple and safe solution of this problem is to send your family washing to us—es- pecially during these days while the weather- man is surly. No washboards or heavy soaps are employed by us. We wash for you in the twentieth century way by letting soft water and billowy suds surge through the fabric. It is a launder- ing method that saves clothes. So, also, is our ironing process, We give a charming lustre to your linens not with hot irons, but with special steam heated presses that protect the texti'es. Telephone us. Our driver will call at a definite time for your family bundle. At a definite time also he will return it. Our method saves you labor ani protects you from the rigors of wind and weather, “Canadian Steam Laundry } Phone 8 | | i | ‘Sed 9 — Harry Hanson's Patent Patent Office, Ottawa, January 27, 1920. directed to acknowledge receipt of your (h inst. on the subject of Canadian patent b2632, xg ted to you on the 18th May, 1915, for a ind in reply to inform you that this patent ithe conditions of Section 44 of tthe 4 pject to compulsory licence system) and is gov- ay Se 8 of the said Act, an extract from which veg lo enclose herewith, Lam als¢ inforin you that the fee for the second six ‘irs levi tas nol yet been paid, but it does not come due pa on {8th May, 1921.
