"There is work that profits children, and there is work that brings profit only to employers. The object of employing children is not to train them, but to get high profits from their work." -- Lewis Hine, 1908 How does this quote relate to labor in the late 1800s/early 1900s? Does this quote relate to labor today? How so?

Photography: Discussion Questions Why do we take and keep photographs? What information can you gather from photographs? How can historians use photographs? How can a photographer’s point of view become an issue in pictures?

Write down everything you saw in the photograph.

Class Discussion Should the government regulate labor in private industry? How far should regulation go? How can companies be responsible for working conditions? What labor regulations are in effect today? How and why were these regulations established?

What jobs do you hold? What procedures are required by the federal or state government did you have to follow before you were employed? What are the regulations you have to follow in your particular jobs? Were you advised of safety rules or hour restrictions? What are the dangers of your particular jobs? Do you feel you have adequate protection as employed minors? What would you change about your jobs? What are obstacles you face if you try to change your working conditions?
