House Cleaning!
Help! Help!
HOUSECLEANING in the
way mother used to do it
was strenuous work.
Chaos reigned and elbow grease was '
the chief lubricant.
Today science has lessened her
labors.
There are cleaners, sweepers, scrub
bers, mops, and a thousand and one de
vices for saving time and toil.
The first step towards correct house
cleaning is the choice of the right mater
ials to work with and in finding these the
advice of the advertising columns of The
East Oregonian may be of assistance.
