bit. This is one of the cases where a woman
has entered the profession of detective.

(5) No foreign exhibits were installed by women, although about
15 per cent of the foreign exhibits were prepared by women.

(6) The most noticeable work given to women at the fair was
along the lines demanding executive ability, as is required in
organizing exhibits, where tact and business capacity were
essential to success. (See answer 4.)

(7) Their work differed from the work at other expositions in
the fact that scientific material was presented in an attractive
and comprehensive way, so as to be easily understood and
appreciated by the general visitor.

(8) Yes. Their work could easily be compared to that of men. It
was of the same grade, and there seemed to be no question or
suggestion of inferiority.

(9) Yes; the work of women was as well appreciated when placed
by the side of that of men as when separately exhibited.

(10) The results would not have been better if separately
exhibited. Exhibits must be scientifically classified in order
to be appreciated by the general visitor. If the exhibits
prepared by women had been separated, it would have left a great
gap in the scientific arrangement required in a collective
exhibit, as in group 139. The exhibits in this line prepared by
women would not and could not have covered the subject
completely.

(11) See answer to No. 7.

There were no manufacturers in group No. 139 except
manufacturers of prison cells, and no women are employed in such
factories.

Thirty per cent of the work of organizing, collecting, and
installing exhibits in group 139 was performed by women, and
about 40 per cent of the actual work was prepared under the
direction of women, such as teachers in reformatory
institutions, etc.

All women preparing and organizing exhibits in this group
received awards. The exact proportion can not be determined
until the jury make their final report.

Naturally, there were no inventions by women in this group, but
the exhibits made, or nearly all of them, were improvements on
such work at former expositions, and a great deal of originality
was displayed presenting scientific material and installment of
exhibits.

The artistic genius and method of displaying scientific material
made this gr
