A short periodical article describing a summer lace-making experiment at Greenwich House, a New York settlement house on the lower West Side, directed by Miss Katharine Lord. Over thirty girls and women were taught lace-making and several expert lacemakers were employed, with thread supplied and finished lace bought from the workers. It frames lace-making as home work for immigrant women, cripples and mothers, and mentions a similar program at South End House, Boston.
