The small country merchants set up the claim that their businesses did not warrant their paying a woman more than $20 or $25 per month, and in order for them to maintain female help they would have to discharge their experienced girls and employ only those under eighteen years of age, or one older who had had less than one year 's experience as a sales girl. The practical workings of the law are yet to be told. Briefly, the total number of women and girls in Utah com- ing under the operations o...f the law numbered about 12, 000. Of the total number only about 6 per cent were under the age of eighteen years, and were employed chiefly as errand or bundle girls in department store, and in candy factories, box and knitting factories. No account was reckoned of the girls and women who, in the packing season, work in the canneries, of which we have quite a number. The operating period of some of these concerns is less than sixty days, and they employ quite a number of young folks of both sexes during that time of year embracing the school vacation for full or part days.
