reproduced with almost startling fidelity.
We’re proud to offer this excellent unit to our discriminating cus

like you've been transported to the concert hall.

Nearly half of all American
women are working or looking
for a job. Females now make
up approximately 41 per cent
of the labor force.
In contrast to earlier times,
most working women are
married with husbands
present. They have school-age
children.
But Pifer said a high
proportion who are single,
separated, widowed, or
divorced also have young
children.

“There are no signs that
. these trends will be reversed.
Women must work. They
want to work.”
Pifer said that continued
failure to take account of the
effects of women’s rising
labor force participation may
cause “hardship and inequity
for increasing numbers of
people.”
