Then you'll see why it is that one-third of all the wash ing machines sold are May tags with over 100 different makes on the market. You'll see the Maytag wash whole tubfuls spotlessly clean in 3 to 7 minutes-50 pounds of clothes dry weight in one hour--the grim iest work or play clothes in 10 min utes. You'll see collar and cuff bands washed clean without rubbing, you will see the comfort and conven ience 'of the tub adjustable to your height and of the self-adjusting swinging wringer. You'll see the most beautiful and compact washer made, taking up only 25 inches square of floor space.
