WOMEN'S WORK IN GERMANY
"Everywhere one turns," says Mr. H. B. Swope, in his book, "Inside the German Empire, "one sees women doing the work of men. 'Women to the front' is the industrial cry of Germany to-day and the women are responding'with the same alacrity that the men are showing in their military duties. There are women conductors, women 'cabbies,' women teamsters, women chauffeurs, women ditch-diggers, women mail-earriors, women messengers, women bakers, women plumbers, women butchers, women telegraph 'linemen,' women 'motormen,' women ploughers, women munition workers, women gardeners, women electricians—women everything. In fact, it is the boast of Germany that there is not now one field of effort formerly consecrated to man that has not been entered by women."
