not at all indicative of her amazonic
profession. At the anvil Mrs. Albrecht
wears an old dark short skirt and q
gingham dressing sacque with a low,
frilled collar and sleeves cut off above

veloped through her use of the heavy
tools. She says that she likes the
work and that she will continue at 1t
as long as there is a demand for her
services.
