PROGRESS OK NATION SHOWN IN LAUNDRIES The class of wearing apparel re ceived in cleansing establishments tells many things. The modern laundry establish ments ot today are a social barom eter, according to a sociologist who recently had occasion to take a peek behind the scenes ot laundries in the United States. "The apparel received by the laun dries," he said, "Is fruitful in Infor mation. It tells the style habit ot the people. Even more Important, It la an Indicator ot the gre:t social changes that are taking place. "It shows the style tendency, for one thing, Is towards raiment of a higher quality. Shirts and hosiery ot silk once to be found only In the bundles ot the extremely well-to-do. are a part today of almost every washing. "A few year ago the greatest part of laundry consisted ot shirts and collars. Today, on the average, only 20 per cent are collars, 20 per cent shirts, and the rest family work, like she Is, table cloths and garment. "In a word, as much as 60 per cent or more ot the work In most modern laundries consists of articles that the housewife once did at home. The presence ot this in the laundry tell three things It Indicate a shortage ot laundresses and domestic ser vants, great Improvement In laundry methods, and the tact that the mod ern woman Is breaking away from washday, as once she broke away from the making of flour, of cloth Ing'for the family, and many other things.
