ERIC ED541140: A Half-Time Mill School. Bulletin, 1919, No. 6

ERIC · 1919 · 9 pictures

A 1919 bulletin from the United States Bureau of Education, issued as Bulletin No. 6, describing a half-time mill school where textile workers attended classes part of the day and worked the rest. The plates show the school building, students at machines in the mill, the Saxon Mills factory, and a Sunday school class taught by a pupil. A designer could draw on the stark, high-contrast black-and-white photographs of early twentieth-century industrial and school life for period-feel documentary imagery.
