This interesting volume has grown out of the author’s experience in philanthropic work in Chicago and New York, and her service for the State of Illinois and for the Federal Government in investigating the circumstances of the poorer classes, and conditions in various trades.
The value of the work lies in information gathered at close range in a long association with, and effort to improve the condition of, the very poor.
The author is not only a lawyer of large experience in Chicago, but has served that city, the State of Illinois, and the Federal Government in many investigations of conditions among various trades, and in reference to the circumstances of the poorer classes.
Among the topics here treated are:
The Right to Childhood.
Interpretations of the Right to Leisure.
The Right of Women to the Ballot.
The Rights of Purchasers and the Courts.
The Women of America
