MOTHERS CHEER
WASHBOARDS ARE RELICS.
Every day mothers toil over the washboard, cleaning the dungarees, bloomers and britches and keeping their households happy. However, a new invention out of Chicago promises to make that a thing of the past.The Hathaway Machine Company has announced the invention of a washing machine run by electricity. Clothes are placed in a drum type cavern that is galvanized.
This perforated cylinder contains blades that lift the clothing as it rotates. The new machines are expected to be sold through the Wheeler and Rawson catalogues as of next year. Drying the clothes, however, still requires a clothesline strung outside, or a mangle.
