Once there was an eager little
German girl, of whom, perhaps. you
could find traces in the brave forceful
face of Emma Steghagen, labor lead
er, delegate to the recent convention
of the National Women's Trade Union
league at New York. You might find
a suggestion of the thin. emotional
child in the figure, bowed by factory
labor, yet energetic with the spirit of
protest.
This little girl lived before woman
suffrage had become national issue,
before the serious magazines were pro-
ducing special suffrage issues. even
before the cartoons were exploiting
the "suffragette''-yet in her own mind
she had evolved the theory that
women kad a right to suffrage and to
labor organization. She was only
fourteen when the time came for her
to stop school and go to work in the
factory.
