Cleaning Panama Hats
Dear Aunt Daisy, Here is a tried and proved way of cleaning a panama hat. I have tried it on my schoolgirl’s regulation panama, and find it very good. Beat one egg white with one teaspoon of salt. Add gradually the juice of one lemon, and beat well together. Brush on the hat with a toothbrush. Wipe over with a damp cloth, and put in the sun to dry. I put mine over a basin when drying, and elevated the basin to keep it clear of the ground, and also to keep the brim in shape.

That information will be welcomed by every mother of a schoolgirl and by every bowler’s wife! Thank you very much,
