Dear Madam: —
If you are interested in having your Laundry handled in a
careful, painstaking manner by skilled help and under the most
sanitary conditions, it will pay you to mail a jxistal card for
our wagon to call.
Our plant is complete in every detail and we use great care
in selecting and training our help.
Every possible safeguard is employed here to insure prompt
service without detriment to the most delicate fabrics and we are
in position to handle everything in the laundry line from the
finest lace waist down to the regular family washing.
We use only pure soap and clear water and wash all arti­
cles in an old fashion honest manner. No alkali or chemicals are
allowed to come into our plant and the ironing is handled with a
view to preserving the texture of the collars, cuffs and shirts and
to prevent rents and saw edges.
Our work is giving satisfaction to many of our neighbors it
will do the same for you.
A trial will convince you that we know our business thor­
oughly and you will find our prices reasonable, based upon high
grade work and honest methods.
We will not attempt to compete with people who bleach the
work white with chemicals that eat up the goods. Even though
such work is done at a lower price, it will prove the most expen­
sive in the end because honest laundry work at a fair price is
much cheaper than new clothes.
Yours very truly,
New Method Laundry
