“Beginning February 1 every young woman in the home economics department of the University of Missouri who takes a course in testing fabrics must roll up their sleeves and work over a wash tub. Each student will have a locker in the laboratory which will contain a tub, washboard, soap, bluing and chemicals. It is the aim of the university to teach the effect the starch, bluing, and other chemicals have on clothing. Later the laboratory is to be equipped with an electric washing machine.”

“Just one minute is all the time necessary for a piece of bread to be evenly toasted in the Electric Upright Toaster. This little fixture is light and adds to the attractiveness of the table. When ready for the toast the bread is placed in the toaster, the current of electricity turned on and in one minute the toast is hot and brown, ready to be eaten. That the public may have a better idea of the excellence of this modern convenience, a public demonstration will be given tomorrow afternoon at the office of the Lawrence Railway & Light Company. Be sure and come in tomorrow to witness the demonstration and then if you like hot, crisp toast you will know how to get it. The cost of running the toaster is too small to be considered.”
