The South's Largest Laundry
Nineteen years ago a small, well conducted laundry with definite policies and defi-
nite ideals—today the South's largest laundry.
Such, in brief, is the history of the Model.
In 1896 this business was started by Mr. Gus Dreyling and L. Albert Ham-
berger. Then, as today, the policy of the institution was to deliver the highest
quality of workmanship, in the briefest possible time, and at the lowest price
commensurate with such a standard of service.
Under the skilled management of these two men the Model has twice outgrown
its quarters and has grown beyond the bounds of one-man control.
Today the Model is housed in the most modern of laundry buildings, handles the
largest volume of business of its kind of any institution in all the South, and is a
nation-wide model of cleanliness, thoroughness and systematic attention to detail.
Every modern device for the perfection of laundry and dry-cleaning work is in-
stalled at the Model.
No amount of money, time or effort has been spared to make the Model absolute-
ly efficient. "The South's largest laundry" is also the home of the South's best
methods. It has grown to its enormous proportions because it desrves to grow.
There is nothing new, nothing that makes for scientific handling of the laundry or
dry-cleaning problem—nothing that makes for washing economy, or dry-cleaning
perfection, missing from the Model's plants.
An idea of the enormity of the business may be gathered from the fact that 30
wagons are daily in use in the Model's delivery department.
The Model always keeps "open house." There are no secrets about its success or
its superior service. The public is invited to inspect its entire plant and all its
methods at any time.

ing apparel for Ladies and Gentlemen, Children, Old Maids,

The Bowser Dry Cleaning System
WE'VE a separate fireproof building entirely devoted to dry-cleaning. It is
completely equipped with the world-famous Bowser system, because test
has proven that best. The tumbling machines here take out all the dust
and deodorized gasoline removes all spots, hot-air blast does the drying, and the
pressing is between steam-heated surfaces covered with chamois.
