How I saved my husband the price
of a washing machine
George had laid aside $l5O to buy me an electric washer —
Just then I happened to hear about anew money-saving labor-saving
service at the Progress Laundry, called "Economy Dry Wash. ”
I learned that by doing a part of the ironing myself I could save the
expense of a washing machine, and also escape the work and cost of
running it. _ A WIF£
Any -woman who considers econ
omy should Inform herself about
“Economy Dry 'Wash.’* We do the
washing In soft water (each wash
ing separate) and we iron the flat
work.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1HZ1.
COLLEGE WEEK
SET MAY 28-29
Hope to Arouse Interest in
Non-Tax Supported State
Schools.
From May 22 to 29 was set aside as
Indiana college week by Gov. Warren T.
McCray in a proclamation Issued today.
The week will be devoted to arousing
interest in the financial plight of many of
the nontax supported colleges to the end
that funds may be raised to relieve them.
The educational campaign will be in
charge of the Association of Church Col
leges of Indiana, of which Dr. Alfred
H. Hughes, president of Evansville Col
lege, is the head.
The Governor’s proclamation in part
is as follows:
“In these times of unprecedented eco
nomic stress, the colleges of Indiana, as
of the Nation, have felt as never be
fore the strain of financial distress. With
growing numbers of students, with in
creasing demands for usefulness, they
find their incomes with lessened power
of purchase and their resources taxed to
the utmost. Will they be able to wsather
the storm? Will they be permitted to
continue their work? The answer rests
with the people.
“Nearly eight thousand young men and
women are enrolled in the private and
denominational colleges of the State.
These are the leaders and statesmen of
tomorrow. They must have the best the
colleges are able to bring. The people
have acted to save the common schools.
They must act to save the colleges. It is
therefore entirely fitting for our people to
unite in striving to promote a universal
regard for the colleges, and to create a
sense of responsibility for the perpetua
tion of their work, to the end that they
be truly conserved for progress.
"Now, therefore, I, Warren T. McCray,
by virtue of the authority vested In me
as Governor of Indiana, and in keeping
with the concurrent resolution passed by
the Senate and House of Representatives
in the Seventy-second General Assembly,
do hereby fix and set aside the week of
May 22 to 28, 1021 as Indiana Collo'e
Week, urgently requesting that earnest
thought and consideration be given by
the people during this week to the needs
and work of the colleges within the State
which are not supported from funds de
rived by taxation, and that generous
support be accorded these institutions by
our people. I further request that the
press, the pulpit, clubs, societies and
