Women’s Work Not Exhibited at Ohio State Fair
Change proposed by Mrs. William L. Barger shifts focus from traditional canning and sewing displays to a modern farm home exhibit and hands on club demonstrations. One half of the Women’s Building will host girl cooking and sewing clubs while the rest shows a five room, up to date farm home with a portable lighting system.
