Show Washday Hints Monday Need Not Be Blue Monday morning doesn't always al-ways need to be blue! Try these washday hints they'll cut the labor in two. To get a bright wash, you've got to use good tools, good materials and good methods. First rule: (1) Don't let things get too dirty. Heavy soil takes it out of you, the color and the fabric; (2) take out stains before be-fore washing. Simple stains like coffee, tea, fruit risually vanish if they are soaked briefly brief-ly in hot water; (3) you'll shorten short-en your washing time if you soften up those stubbon streaks around the edges of collars, shirt-cuffs by scrubbing with soap jelly and a soft brush; (4) don't forget that solid dark colors col-ors pick up lint so they need to be washed separately, but light fast colors can go in with the white things, and a last reminder; (5)- secondhand .water .wa-ter leaves clothes dingy, so always al-ways use clean soft water with plenty of soap suds. Rinse Again and Again The test of the pudding is in the eating and it's the same thing with washing. There is no point in loosening up the-dirt the-dirt in clothes unless you flush it away with plenty of clean water. In other words rinse and then rinse again. |
