Rita's Entry - Friday, Jan. 13, 1911
Weather rainy. Disagreeable day. Stayed home and practiced all day. Slept a little. Began about 4:30 to fuss up for the evening. Dressed Fran for a dance. At 7:15 Al and Fred Zaurug (?) came. Took us to Majestic. Had a very delightful evening.
RITA'S IN DAY: A woman teacher in the US made an average of $50.08 a month while a male teacher made an average of $63.39 a month. Going to see a show at the Majestic would vary from 10 cents to a dollar for a special show. On the 18th of January, Rita is going to see Caruso and she spends a dollar for the ticket!
Judy's Entry - Thursday, Jan. 13, 2011
Finally went out for snowshoeing at the park. The trails were well groomed and we walked for about 2 hours before lunch and only 30 minutes or so after lunch. It was a good workout. Clear and cold but beautiful on the frozen lake.
TODAY: An average yearly salary for a high school teacher is $53,504. Although there is no difference for males and females, the average salary for elementary teacher is less. Is this hidden sexism since most elementary teachers are female?
