Washed shirt in four gallons of petrol! According to a Sydney news reoort, Australian prisoners of war working in Nazi dumps in Tripoli used four gallons of petrol to wash a shirt. There was little water for drinking and none for washing, so the Aussies decided to use as much petrol as possible for washing—four gallons for a shirt, six for a pair of shorts and up to 10 for anything else. However, there’s no scarcity of water at the Westland Laundry, in .fact, they put all clothes through seven different waters. This ensures thorough, hygienic cleansing, and that snowy whiteness which is the delight of all housewives. Only the finest laundry soap is used, with Lux chips for blankets and woollens. The Westland offer you three special services— Bagwash, Thrifty and Fully finished, and also make a specialty of laundering Blankets, Rugs, Curtains, etc. You’ll be agreeably surprised at the

reasonable cost. ’Phone 136. Depot: 27 Albert Street.—Advt.
