Taking the laundry out of the basement is one of the important advances which have divorced the weekly washday from its form- er drudgery. In many new and remodeled homes the washing equipment now is located on the first floor, and sometimes even the second. This arrangement, naturally, saves countless steps for the very busy chatelaine. A first floor 'laundry permits her to centre her major chores in a comparatively small area. Most women prefer to have the laun- dry room just off the kitchen, and this would seem to be the ideal solution. Advocates of the second floor laundry point out, however, that most articles laun- dered are used or stored on that floor, so there is therefore much less carrying to be done. This ar- rangement, of course, calls for indoor drying equipment. Better mechanical equipment and better building materials have been largely responsible for starting the laundry on its up- ward climb in the modern home. New laundry aids are lighter in weight, and perform better. New wall and ceiling materials have been developed which withstand the damp, moist conditions as- sociated with washday. One of the new materials which have proven particularly adapt- able for laundries, kitchens and other rooms which are subjected to extreme moisture conditions is asbestos cement board. It is a hard, smooth surface which is unaffected by steam or water. It is fireproof, can't rot or decay and will not rust. Asbestos cement hoard comes in a natural stone grey color and does not require any other fin- ish. However, if another color is desired the hoard can be painted to suit any preference. Any type of paint can be used if the man- ufacturer's instructions for prim- ing and application are followed. Just be sure to use a primer recommended for asbestos cement products. This is important for oil paints, which usually are fav- oured in laundries. If left un- painted, the board should be wax- ed. The shibboleths of the past are ever more real than the actual- ities of the present.--John Gals- worthy.
