With the co-operation of the Board of Education the employer of these girls provided them with forty-five minutes daily instruction ir, English, reading, writing, arithmetic, hygiene, food values, fire pro- tection and practical information regarding the cotton goods industry, of which their work ie a part. Asn result not only has the 10 per cont. of illiteracy among these workers heen eliminated but the firm mainteins that the girls have gained from 20 to 70 per cent. in work- | ing efficiency.
