SUCH remarkable washing speed was unthought of before the Maytag originated the Gyrafoam washing action and the heat-retaining castaluminum tub. Yet it washes the daintiest garments as carefully as if done by hand—washes by water action alone. This effective but careful method washes the stubborn edge-dirt from collars and cuffs, the ground-in dirt from play clothes or overalls without hand-rubbing. An average washing takes about an hour. The Maytag Roller Water Remover has a
large, soft top roll and large, hard bottom roll. They exert even pressure on all parts of the garment, and spare the buttons. Phone for a Trial Washing You may use a Maytag for your next washing without cost or obligation. You will find that it brings washday happiness. You will discover why it won world leadership. If it doesn’t sell itself, don’t keep it. Deferred Payment* You’ll Never Mis* THE MAYTAG COMPANY, Newton, lowa Founded 1894
