The first cleaning of clo th in g by a wet o r w ashing m ethod was
done in th e ru n n in g w ater of a river. T he women of prim itive peo­
ples carried th e ir soiled g arm en ts to th e edge of a strea m , and e ith e r
held or fasten ed them down w ith a rock, w hile they allow ed the
action of th e w ater to wash o u t th e d irt. T hen th e women g ra d u ­
ally discovered th a t laying th e clo th in g on a sm ooth stone, and
pounding w ith an o th e r rock o r flat stick seem ed to rem ove th e d irt
m ore easily. The next step was to build o ut into th e riv er a sloping,
narrow p latfo rm , and rub th e wash on th is wooden surface. Soon
th ey m ade grooves o r ridges in th ese platfo rm s, and th u s was
evolved th e m odern p o p u lar “w ash b o ard ” — w hich today is as m uch
of a discarded a n tiq u e as tallow dips and w arm ing pans!
All of th ese early an d tra d itio n a l m ethods w ere based on th e
idea of friction, e ith e r by ru b b in g th e pieces on a board o r pounding
them with some form of paddle. T his rub-a-dub-dub m ethod p er­
sisted for cen tu ries, not because it was th e best way to rem ove soil
from clothing, b ut because no one, u n til recen t tim es, stu died to
find some new and m ore efficient w ashing principles.
J u s t as for th o u san d s of years people cooked th e ir food by hom ­
ing it on a stick over a bed of h ot coals, because m ore advanced
m ethods of using an iron ran g e or an electric g rill had not been dis­
covered. so too, women everyw here have follow ed th e old d ru d g ery
w ash b o ard -frictio n h ab it of w ashing because th e w onderful, labor-
saving m ethods of m achine w ashing w ere not yet perfected.
