WOMEN OPERATE ELEVATORS
Not as Hard as 1t Looks, Says Fair
Operator

PHILADELPHIA, August /. -
"Going up?" Mrs. Ray Taylor brought
her elevator on a level with the street
floor of the Medical Arts building, and
smilingly awaited the passengers
decision. At first glance it seemed
absurd to trust oneself to the slen-
der, dainty little operator, in the de-
mure gray uniform. But a second
glance at the steady blue eyes and the
firm hand grasping the lever was re-
assuring.
The hesitant passenger stepped in
and was carried to the sixth floor by
one of three women operators who
are now or duty in the Medical Arts
building. Miss Georgia Chesboro
and Miss Bertha Gardner are the
others.
