A. Roth Co. Wants Girls.
A. Roth & Co. have inserted in this issue a request for more girls at their factory here. About fifty women are now at work and if a sufficient number can be secured another room will be rented in which to do the cutting and fifty power machines will be installed in the room now in use. Some of those now working are being put on a piece wage scale and they are able to make very good wages. We have had access to .the A. Roth & Co. pay roll of Chicago and have taken from this list one hundred names and the earningĀ® of these people for a week.. We find that $858.61 was paid to the one hundred girls. The highest wage paid was $16.24. The lowest wage for the week was $5.64. Thirtv rirls received over $lO and the average wages paid for the week was $8.59. Girls and women desiring employment should send their names in to the company at once. The possibility of earning as much as $16.24 is within the reach of all who will become proficient.
