Thompson, Zion, for the economical manner in which it solved the build-- ing problem. The motion was made by Supervisor Edward Mawman of Lake Bluf{. For six years the board fought and deliberated over the proper housing of the poor at the Libertyvyille farm. Selling the present property and re-- building, remodelling, and rebuild-- ing on wkhe present site were the so-- lutions offered and beaten at vari-- ous times. A bond issue was firm'!ly denied by the voters which sent the problem back to the board, The committee then sought an ap propriation of $25,000 for the pur-- pose of remodelling the farm. This was granted. Much of the work has been completed and from all ap-- pearances the committee will be able to keep $2,000 to $4,000 within the appropriation.

The purpose of the survey was to ascertain how and to what extent these women are Htting into American industrial life; how necessary such employment is for these women; what it means !o them and to their families; and how much of their time and strength is given to industry.
