He will be glad to explain our services -- and help you decide which one is best suited to your needs. | Washington Laundry-washing Saves Money WE have a variety of laundry services, and each one offers a superior quality of work at prices considerably less than home- washing costs. One of our services is called Damp Wash serv- ice which returns clothes damp for ironing-- exactly what home-washing gives you. Counting laundress hire, meals, carfare, soap, powders, bluing, starch, gas, water, repairs and depreciation on equipment, interest on invest- ment, etc., this laundry service averages about half the cost of home-washing. This substantial difference in cost daily results in many new customers, some of whom for- merly imagined they could not possibly afford our service. May we suggest that you make a comparison between the cost of our services and the costs of home-washing. We are confident that you will discover that it is possible to obtain from us a better quality of laundry work for less. he.

The beginning of social welfare came because of thought for others, consideration, and the giving to those who needed help, she said, but it was soon found that such generous aid usually did not help the persons, but made them confirmed paupers. So, instead of just giving, the method changed to helping the persons to help themselves. Today social welfare workers study the case. They are given a technical education in the training for social workers--poverty, its causes, what will help it, non-employment, and vagabonds. This is a great change in the tactics of the social worker. To qualify for such a job a belief in the job is necessary. The worker must see the problem, study it, and seek for the remedy. Faith in the given problem is a great asset in applying the remedy. Another very important and neces- sary thing for the social worker is to learn to think of and see her prob- lem objectively, and not allow her emotions to put herself in the place of one of the persons she is trying to help. She is not to make con- firmed paupers or idlers of her peo- ple, but educate them to higher sur- roundings. Mrs. Fentress concluded her most interesting and beneficial talk by saying that even if none of those in her audience became social workers, and hoped that at least they would have the right attitude toward social work.
