A high stepladder, fiber tub, damp flannelette duster, scrub cloth, soft linen towel, chamois leather, ammonia, and warm water are necessary to clean windows.

1. Fill the tub half full of warm water and add a tablespoonful of ammonia or a few drops of kerosene. 2. Carry the ladder to the window, roll up the shade, and take it down. Unroll it on the floor or over a table, then roll it up, dusting both sides as it rolls. Stand it aside, marking to which window it belongs if more than one is being cleaned. 3. Dust the window, especially the surrounding woodwork, with the damp flannelette duster. 4. Wash the glass, especially corners, and dry with the linen towel. 5. Polish with the chamois leather. 6. Replace the shade, testing carefully, and make sure the spring works properly. 7. Wash out the tub; towel, cloth, and duster. Hang the cloths to dry and put everything else away. 8. If chamois leather is not available, use crumpled newspaper. 9. The following mixture may be used instead of ammonia and water, but the resulting white dust must be carefully wiped up: 1 tablespoonful precipitated whiting; 2 tablespoonfuls household ammonia.
