Folding Chart on weekly hours and earnings. Tables. Footnotes. List of Special Publications. Cover scuffed and has wear and soiling and a small piece of the upper edge of front is missing. Charlotte E. Carr was the Director of the Bureau of Women and Children. Charles A. Waters was the Secretary of the Department of Labor and Industry. Foreword by Charlotte E. Carr. Pennsylvania was at the time the second largest industrial state in which children were traditionally employed. Also at that time there had been no state-wide basis attempted to gather authoritative unbiased information regarding the conditions under which its children were being employed. In Pennsylvania no child under the age of 14 could be certificated to work. The Child Labor Law regulated in the main the conditions of work for 14- and 15-year-old employed children delegating the responsibility for the supervision of these children to two state departments The Department of Labor and Industry and the Department of Public Instruction. These two departments collaborated in this first official study to secure information regarding 14 and 15-year-old workers in the Commonwealth. McConnell succeeded Carr as Director of the Bureau. Born in 1890 Charlotte Elizabeth Carr attended Miss Madiera's School in Washington D.C. She earned a B.A. from Vassar College in 1915. Following graduation Carr served as an investigator of the State Charities Aid in New York City 1915-1917. She was appointed Assistant Director of the Bureau of Women in Industry of the New York Department of Labor 1923. Two years later she was appointed head of the Section of Women and Children in the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry. In 1929 Gifford Pinchot governor of Pennsylvania appointed her the first female Secretary of the Department of Labor and Industry. During the Depression Carr accepted an appointment as Director of Hull House the settlement house started by Jane Addams in Chicago. Carr ushered in changes that included replacing volunteers with paid workers and appointing professional staff to head each department. She created two new departments: the Community Service Department which initiated improvements in community housing schools and recreational facilities; and the Workers' Education Department which provided instruction in labor law and collective bargaining. In 1943 she served as chair of the New York City War Manpower Commission. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Labor and Industry, Bureau of Women and Children paperback‎

‎Medical School Women Education‎

‎Photo Archive of Women Students at Duke University School of Medicine‎

‎Women Education Medical School Photo archive of women students at Duke University School of Medicine Class of 1950. Consist of 23 original Gelatin silver print black and white photos. 3 x 4 ¼ inches. c. 1940s-1950. Images show students at work in blood banks in labs studying and relaxing between classes. Includes photos of school buildings such a the Medical School entrance in addition to several instructors. Some include handwritten captions giving a little more information such as a picture of the "Class of 1950" with 8 women and 1 man identified: "Bev Helen Belle Monkey Noni Ann Betty Joann Bill". Other captions include names of doctors instructors fellow students and the type of work being done in images such as "Bev - vaccine" and "Beth Bueliner - Blood Bank". Other photos identify the subject as the Media Lab Chemistry Lab working with EKG and studying Hematology blood. Students outside of medical school entrance. Photos of a quick break grabbing a coffee and snack of animal crackers.<br/><br/>Although women had participated in the informal practice of medicine for hundreds of years there were relatively few women studying medicine in the United States at this time. By 1900 only about a dozen medical schools had opened to coeducation and female graduates often found themselves unable to access training hospitals and professional associations. The trailblazing young women in these photos whom we see performing experiments and examining patients bucked the trend of their generation to become doctors. Early images of women in medicine are very rare and a fine addition to a collection. Very good condition. unknown books‎

Her diaries and sketches portray the forests as they have never been viewed before. Her paintings and sketches "could stand without shame in the high company of such masters as Georg Dionysius Ehret and Redoute" (Wilfred Blunt). An important contribution to the botany and wildlife of Amazonia and an interesting description of plant exploration. Mee was a passionate conservationist and devoted her life to recording the diversity and beauty of the Amazon. She was one of the first to protest the destruction still taking place there. Sitwell in Great Flower Books describes her work as: 'exceptional and quite in the tradition of the great eighteenth-century books '. 'Mee was a talented botanical painter and intrepid traveller. . .an exceptional personality' [Oak Spring Flora].‎

‎MEHMED ZIHNI EFENDI, (1845-1913).‎

‎Mesâhirü'n-nisâ. Vol. 1.‎

‎Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Contemporary 1/4 black leather bdg. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In Ottoman script. 371 p. Mesâhirü'n-nisâ. Vol. 1. Biographies of women from Islamic and Turkish world. "Mesahiru'n Nisa" Mehmed Zihni Efendi's is one of the most important works in the tradition of Islamic historiography. Within this tradition, a partial examination has been carried out on books written on social classes to determine on how much emphasis has been given on the "type and number" of women. The most important difference that separates "Mesahiru'n-Nisa" from previous traditional books on social classes is the reason it was written. The author wrote his work at the request of "Maarif Nezareti" ( Ministry of Education) to be read to young girl students at "Darulmuallimat" at that time. Zihni Efendi portrayed a "model Muslim woman profile" in his study. Within this framework, the author tried to realize three aims: Women who have become noted in different artistic, social, scientific and occupational areas not because of their gender but because they provide as an example with what they have done to young girl students. On the other hand, the moral side of a woman was given importance and very many moral women introduced in their various aspects were given as an example of their eminent personalities. In particular, emphasis was given on being a "good wife" and a "good mother.".
