invented such a machine. She built wire compartment, each specially designated
to fit either plates, cups, or saucers. The compartments were placed inside a
wheel that lay flat inside a cooper boiler. A motor tuned the wheel while hot
soapy water squirted up from the bottom of the boiler and rained down on the dishes. This invention was made

winter season. One day there was rainy weather and there were no more vehicles
with the people of NY on road. But she observed that all of the owner of
vehicles have to move out from their autos and have to clean the window screen
by hand continuously. She thought that it is a great problem which must be
solved. Then she went back to Alabama. She made a wiper with handle and fixed
with the vehicle window screen. This wiper was operated from inside the auto. When
this handle was operated then the wiper washed the window screen. So this
invention was called by her name in 1903 and after only 10 years wiper was
