    “The Directory now presented being, so far as is known, the first
    of its kind ever issued, it is the editor's duty to show cause.
    The rapid multiplification of occupations open to women, and
    the general advance which they are making in the world of work, call
    urgently for records, definitions and other details, so that the general
    public, the business world, and women as a group may understand con-
    ditions more clearly and be ready for needed adjustments.
    It has long been a custom in state and national government to
    record the number of women in industry, their types of occupations
    and the conditions affecting them in their work; but when
    America
    en-
    tered the World War in 1917 and was searching out all possible
    resources for bringing on victory, it was found that neither national nor
    state records afforded any lists or other organized information as to the
    business and professional women of the country. There was therefore no
    way to marshal such forces quickly and use them to the best advantage.
    One of the purposes of this Directory is to pave the way for
    remedying this condition in
    Virginia
    as well as in
    Richmond
