SHORT TALKS OF INTEREST
In ancient (lays, the washing was (lone by men or women,
who stood in the creek and pounded t)ie clothes, saturated in
water, over a log or flat rock. This pounding forced the water
through the meshes of the cloth and in tills way dislodged the dirt.
Needless to say, this pounding reduced them to shreds in a very
short time. The wash board is a slight improvement over this
method but the modern electric washing machine is acknowledged
as the superior method of washing clothes today, as it washea
clothes cleaner and clothes last two to three times longer than
those washed by hand. Talk No. 5 will appear in this space
tomorrow.
