Show Sallora Do Own Washing. Did you ever notice how spic and span Uncle Sam's Jackies always look when they are on shore leave or aboard ship? And did you ever real-; ize that Jack is his own washwoman7 They have washdays aboard the fighting fight-ing ships as well as the housewives have theirs. Every man has to be en the Job when the boatswain's mate orders "Wash Clothes." In the old days this was some task. Each man had to wash his soiled clothes in a bucket of water and hang them on the line to dry. But on the newest battleships washing and drying machines ma-chines have been installed which do away with all hand work nnd much labor. The old familiar sight of a long line of clothes strung up is no longer to be seen. Also the boatswain's mate has forgotten how to pipe "wash clothes." When Jack's apparel is soiled he just throws it into the washing wash-ing machine and in a few minutes it comes out clean and dry. |
