Put your white clothes to soak on Sunday night - the washing ma- chine can be quickly tilled with an abundance of hot water from the Hy- dro flat rate water heater early Mon- day morning. Add water softener and soap flakes and put the clothes in while the machine is operating, to bp sure that not too many things are put in at once. 3. You can be preparing breakfast while the faithful machine works a- way for about 20 minutes, Even be- fore breakfast the first, batch of clothes can be wrung out and put in- to warm rinse water. You'll realize the value of your water heater when you remember how a soapy garment put into cold rinse water used to look. - (The fat in the soap coagulat- ed just enough to leave •a.discourag- ing yellow-ness). 4. Breakfast over, the white clothes can be wrung out of the first rinse water into the second, with the swivel wringer. By this time the sec- ond batch of clothes is ready for rins- ing. While the bed linen is hung out to dry on an umbrella type clothes- line -the- first instalment' Of sheets and pillow cases can go out.
