There are at least sixteen girls in New York City this morning who know how to cook and sew and who are qualified in every way to take care Bixteen special diplomas signed by the City Superintendent of of homes, Goods Manufacturers’ Association, and with the aid of the Board of Educa- tion was carried out by him and his Ratner, Abraham Gussow, Frederick Newmark and Abraham Iserson. Four girls from each of four factories were selected for the experiment and special classes were held for them. In the"morning they were taught to read and write English, In the afternoon they learned how to make their own clothes, how to buy and prepare food economically and were trained in gym- nastlc exercises and in mental, moral and physical hygiene. These girls, who range in age from sixteen to elghteen, are Minnie Potrof- aky, Rose Liebowitz, Ida Welsfish, Mary Versacl, Lottie Eis, Minnie David- off, Marie. Goodman, Celia Oberman, Eva Sellovitch, Josephine Burke, Fanny Ametra, Mary Atena, Dora Goodman, and Mary Coyle. | ALL ARE DELIGHTED WITH! THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

Cella Oberman, another of the factory school girls, was most impressed by the favt that she had learned to make & whole dress, “Before I went to school and learned how to sow I had to buy everything. I could not make anything for myseif, It 4s much cheaper to make them and I can have them nicer...And since I went to school I have made more money in the factory." The point of increased earning capac- ity was emphasized by all the sixteen girl graduates. They were paid during the achool week a sum equal to their earnings in the factory the week before, and they were astonished as well as Bratified to find that they gained ef- ficiency for work as well as for their home duties by going to school, EMPLOYEHS TAKE NEW 6TEP TO GUARD GIRLS, There are persons in New York who view this novel undertaking of the Cot- ton Go Manufacturers’ Association as the solution of the problem of tie | discovered that the woman in the case Schools and countersigned by four manufacturers of New York which were distributed last night in Public School No. 4 attest this fact.

The idea of inducing manufac- turers to educate girl employees to greater efficiency and personal use- fulness originated with Dudley D. Sicher, President of the Cotton associates, Herbert 8.
