This trip s certainly a revelation to me." OSS AA 2% A220 0) 2 Such beliefs as the above may be justified by the fact that the laundry in its com- paratively short history has developed, you might say, by leaps and bounds, and has outgrown its dictionary meaning, in a literal sense, "a place where washing is done." Forty years ago we did laundry work in a small room. Today we do it in the fin- est equipped plant on the North Shore. We have grown and we owe our growth to "Quality Work."

The director, Carl Scheffler, teaches the class himself, showing the children how to observe essentials and "discussing color values. In conducting the class Mr. Schef- fler uses a story-telling method to start the classes, which gives an his- torical background. He draws in view of the children to show how the steps are done. Mr. Scheffler, a teacher of long experience, is enthusiastic about the progress of his pupils and comments on their eagerness and responsiveness. Mr. and Mrs. L. W.

Third Annual Rodeo Coming to Soldiers Field August 2--28 Everything is now in readiness for the third annual Chicago Rodeo, the most thrilling of all contests held in America. From August 20 to 28 the greatest ropers, riders and steer wrest- lers from the western plains will com- pete at Soldier Field for the world's cowboy championships for 1927, and the $40,000 in prize money offered by the Chicago Association of Commerce. The most vicious, man-killing buck- ing horses ever assembled for a rodeo will be used in the contest. They have been gathered up from a dozen different points in the west and many of them have never been successfully ridden. Invalid, one of the most noted outlaws has thrown thirty-one out of the last thirty-one cowboys who have tried to ride him. There will be more than 150 of the outlaw horses. Giant Brahma-Mexican steers will test the skill of the best steer riders in the world and long-haired Mexican steers weighing over 900 pounds each will be used in the steer wrestling events. In this contest the cowboy leaps from the back of a galloping horse onto the horns of the steer and tries to wrestle him to the ground in less than two minutes. Relay races, the most spectacular and dangerous of all races, trick and fancy riding and roping, Indian races and many other events will be run off every afternoon and evening for the nine days of the contests and until all the championships have been decided. Tex Austin of Las Vegas, N. Mex, is again the rodeo manager for the association of Commerce. Capt. Tom Hickman of the Texas Rangers, Capt. G. M. Jones of New Mexico and Ward Farmer of Archer, Texas, are the judges this year. Mr. and Mrs. Fred W.
