Cincinnati; and it is perhaps of some general interest, historically, because of its being one of the traditional womens occupations, that has increased and not waned in importance. It is gratifying, therefore, to know of this definite effort, looking towards the future progress and welfare of so large a body of industrial workers. Such a descriptive analysis as the one following, which shows the advantages and drawbacks in this trade, and which sets forth the educational possibilities for development, ought to increase interest, and ought to help to dignify this necessary, useful and honorable trade. Hence it is a privilege to say a word by way of preface to a study which champions the cause of women workers, for whose progress too few really care; the public, in the main, being interested only in the products of their labor. IS uch efforts as this made by the Chamber of Commerce is helping to develop, in Cincinnati sindustrial and educational life, a spirit of co-operation. We are glad, therefore, of the opportunity to further in any way so effective a method of arousing the interest of the community in its vital problems. M. EDITH CAMPBEU, Director of the Schmidlapp Bureau.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the garment industry in Cincinnati, Ohio, focusing on women's work in the sector from the mid-19th century to the early 20th century. The author draws on interviews with employers and employees, along with data from sources like the Ohio Industrial Commission and the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. The study explores a range of issues, including pay and working conditions for garment workers, the division of labor in the industry, and the role of unions in the garment trades. Ultimately, the book highlights a need for educational reform, arguing that vocational training could help workers advance in the industry and secure better employment opportunities.
