J COJLUMff Laundries: A man in Mexico, the Department of Commerce bulletin's, "is desirous I nf purchasing machinery for a small l'umdiy." What anybody wants with a liiundry in Mexico is more than we can understand, but since it is so .we append a partial list of things he should get: Above al!, he must have- a button smashing machine, any laundry worthy the name lets no guilty but ton escape. Then he will need a collar ripper and cuff fraycr. This indispensable little contrivance will utterly demor alize the'strongest shirt that was ever built. Next, a clothes mixer. In these days of pre-digested food and vest-pocket bungalows by mail, every man expects his laundry ready mixed. He's sore if you send him the same colored pa jamas two weeks in succession. Some authorities claim you can t run a laundry without a machine or two to wash the clothes, but this really isn't necessary.
