HOLDS PLATES FIRMLY AND 4 COMFORTABLY MODERN LAUNDRY EXPERT EXPLAINS “NET BAG SYSTEM” Tells How Manhattan Saves You Money By Saving Your Clothes LAFLIN Optician—Optometrist 922 14th St. N.W. Established 1889 Present-day laundry methods, which preserve clothes as well as clean them, are far superior to the old home method of rubbing and scrubbing, ac- cording to Mr. E. F. Wesely, chief of the Research Department of Manhat- tan Laundry, Mr. Wesely attributes a large part of the Manhattan Laundry's success to their Net Bag System of washing. Manhattan Laundry adopted the Net Bag for washing clothes six years ago. Clothes, they agreed, could be washed just as clean in bags and would wear longer if rubbing and scrubbing were eliminated, Manhattan's famous Net Bag Sys- tem of washing, as described by Mr. Wesely, follows: First, the clothes are assorted according to their color and material and placed in individual net bags which bear the customer's name and contain only that customer’s ar- ticles. Safe in the mets and protected from all metal or other hard surfaces, the clothes go into the washers, Here they are subjected to the gentle cleans- ing action of swirling hot suds which penctrate each garment and loosen every particle of dirt. Only the purest of Palm Oil roaps and soft, filtered water are used, after first having been inspected and tested by the Research Department. Many rinsings of fresh, clear water follow, removing every trace of dirt from the clothes and leaving the fabrics refreshed and clean, They are then dried, starched where necessary and iromed by the most modern methods. That clothes wear lonzer and look better when washed in Net Bags has been proven by test after test. For instance, two shirts, exactly the same, werewashed fifty times each, one ir. & net bag, the other by hand. At the end of the test the net-bag washed shirt showed absolutely no signs of wear, while the hand-washed shirt had become a sad combination of rough edges, torn seams and broken buttons. Other tests on all sorts of wearing apparel are being carried on regularly and in every case show the Net Bag System to be far superior in preserving the original sheen of the cloth. At Manhattan the Nets Get the Wear and the Clothes Get the Wash. Enthusiastic Customer Praises Net Bag System Tn a recent letter to the Manhattad, Laundry Mrs. E. R. D. writes: . « . But the one actual fact that pleases me most is that the clothes do not show as much wear as they did when I had my laundry done at hqme. . . . It is indeed a pleasure to recommend you. . . . This letter is typical of the many received by Manbattan from satisfied customers throughout the District of Columbia and Virginia. Such letters bear out Mankattan’s claim that “Net Bag Laundering Saves You Money by Saving Yous Clothes.” Three-Day Collection And Delivery Service Quite another Manhattan feature which has found great favor with Washington housewives is their 3-Day Collection and Delivery Service. In this highly developed system your clothes are collected one day, laundered to your order the next and delivered to you promptly the afternoon of the third day.
