ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Any significant undertaking requires the contributions and encouragement of numerous individuals: the very character of this thesis is indebted to all of the individuals and families associated with the Friends’ Historical Association who found their ancestors’ clothing to be of value. My advisor, Linda Eaton, offered exceptional guidance throughout this endeavor from suggesting the FHA collection and pointing me towards resources, to helping me brainstorm and reminding me to keep it all in perspective. Her counseling and encouragement has meant a great deal to me in Winterthur Program. I would also like to thank all of my Catawba College mentors, Charlie and Jane McAllister, Gary Freeze, Jan Evans, and James Parker, who have always supported the blending of my textillian and historical inklings. I am indebted to Susan Drinan and Jeffrey Ray at the Atwater Kent Museum of Philadelphia, both of whom assisted greatly in allowing me access to the FHA collection and the related documents. Pat O’ Donnell, Diana Franzusoff Peterson, and Kristina Haugland offered wonderful insight into the nature of this project and into the resources of their respective institutions. Great thanks are due to Holly Winchell (ever willing to discuss the merits of a seam or a particular sleeve) for her conversation, friendship, and fabric filled care packages. I also want to thank my WPEAC classmates who have taught me so much iii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. during the past two years. Special thanks go to Megan Giordano and her parents for their indefatigable kindness in helping me adjust to life in the Delaware Valley: “It’s not history that concerns me. It’s the future. It’s far more uncertain.” I want to thank my family and dogs (especially Rosie) for their endless support and confidence in me. The countless phone calls, letters, walks in the wood, and wags of the tails keep me smiling and grateful. Finally, I want to thank my parents, George and Beverly Cline, for their enthusiasm, wisdom, creativity, and love. This work is dedicated to them. iv Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission.

Maud, Emma, Evangeline America’s Love Affairs With the 3 Booth Women July 2014 Copyright © The Salvation Army USA Western Territory ISBN 978-0-9768465-9-8 Printed in the United States Table of Contents Foreword 1 Introduction 3 Maud Ballington Booth 7 Emma Booth-Tucker 42 Evangeline Cory Booth 67 Afterword 117 Booth Women / 1 FOREWORD By Major Kevin E. Jackson The history of The Salvation Army is incredibly rich. Those who spend time researching and writing it are keenly aware of this truth. Those who choose to read books, articles and thoughtful studies on The Salvation Army’s past come to understand the depth and importance of the subject. The history of this organization maintains a uniqueness that separates this movement from oth- er religious organizations, churches and nonprofits. We are similar in some respects, but our uniqueness is what tells the story that most readers of our past want to know and profit from. Just prior to the release of Maud, Emma, Evangeline: America’s Love Affair with the 3 Booth Women, I spent several hours interviewing Dr. R. Gordon Moyles for a promotional video about the book. I was taken by Moyles’ pas- sion for the subject of his latest work, and his lifelong study of The Salvation Army.

When moved to activity by the apparent need, there was never a thought that our humble services would awaken the widespread admiration that has developed. In fact, we did not expect anything further than appreciative recog- nition from those immediately benefited, and the knowledge that our people have proved eo useful is an abundant compensation for all toil and sacrifice, for service is our watchword, and there is no reward equal to that of doing the most good to the most people in the most need.

  • The Best American Humorous Short Stories
    T.B. BY FANNIE HURST From The Saturday Evening Post Copyright, 1915, by The Curtis Publishing Company. Copyright, 1916, by Fannie Hurst. The figurative underworld of a great city has no ventilation, housing or lighting problems. Rooks and crooks who live in the putrid air of crime are not denied the light of day, even though they loathe it. Cadets, social skunks, whose carnivorous eyes love darkness, walk in God's sunshine and breathe God's air. Scarlet women turn over in wide beds and draw closer velvet curtains to shut out the morning. Gamblers curse the dawn. But what of the literal underworld of the great city? What of the babes who cry in fetid cellars for the light and are denied it? What of the Subway trackwalker, purblind from gloom; the coalstoker, whose fiery tomb is the boiler room of a skyscraper; sweatshop workers, a flight below the sidewalk level, whose faces are the color of dead Chinese; six-dollar-a-week salesgirls in the arc-lighted subcellars of six-million-dollar corporations? This is the literal underworld of the great city, and its sunless streets run literal blood--the blood of the babes who cried in vain; the blood from the lungs of the sweatshop workers whose faces are the color of dead Chinese; the blood from the cheeks of the six-dollar-a-week salesgirls in the arc-lighted subcellars. But these are your problems and my problems and the problems of the men who have found the strength or the fear not to die rich.

It is the fate of those who toil at the lower employments of life, to be rather driven by the fear of evil, than attracted by the prospect of good; to be exposed to censure, without hope of praise; to be disgraced by miscarriage or punished for neglect, where success would have been without applause and diligence without reward.

DEBENHAM & FREEBODY, WIGMORE STREET c^' WELBECK STREET, LONDON, W. aiFT OF PREFACE HE Fourth Edition of Ardern Holt's "Fancy Dresses Described" being exhausted, we have made arrange- ments for the publication of the Fifth Edition with such corrections as experience dictates, and a very large addition to the number of characters detailed. The suggestions we have received have been carefully noted, and the result is a larger and more comprehensive work than any hitherto published. The inquiry for Coloured Plates has induced us to select sixteen favourite Models for Illustration in Colours, of a completely new character, as well as a new series of smaller Illustrations, and we trust they will add greatly to the usefulness of the book. The Author's name is a guarantee for the correctness of the descriptions and accuracy of details; and we have endea- voured (as in former editions) to maintain such simplicity as will enable many ladies to produce the costumes at home.

It is a frame for the face, a trim for the dress. It is the one mos.t important accessory to a smart appearance. History of Hats All through the centuries the hat has played a varied and at times an amusing role in the history of dress. Caps were worn before hats.
