  • Word Usage
    "The students were "taught not only how to make attractive garments for themselves, but a trade by which they can support themselves" through a year-long course in millinery, dressmaking, or machine operation. 41 The timing of the course was planned so that after graduation in July, the girls would have some vacation time before the garment season began in the fall."
