Interview of Mrs. Sophie Goldenthal of Toronto, age 78, who was born in Romania. She talks about: moving from Romania to live with relatives in Montreal when she was age 11; going to work immediately even though she was too young to work legally; her marriage to a man who worked as a presser in the garment industry; inflation and other hardships during the First World War; fainting and being taken to hospital while she was pregnant because she was caught in a crowd of people who were climbing over one another to buy oranges during a sale at the Eaton’s department store; the black market and her avoidance of it because she did not want to get in trouble with the law; shoving the head of a particularly aggressive woman into a crate of eggs during a sale at Eaton’s because the woman was preventing others from getting to the eggs; her husband’s work making uniforms in a garment factory because he was too old to enlist; the difficulty families with children had in finding living accommodations; people working at Tip Top Tailors; her husband’s union activities; going to the St. Lawrence Market to get eggs, which were cheaper if you collected them yourself from the chicken coop; the generally cheaper goods bought from farmers at the market; labour unrest and unemployment; unions gaining strength; a strike at Tip Top; men picketing the station to stop the arrival of scab labour; efforts by the unions to make things better for the workers; the returned soldiers, who got their old jobs back after the war; Tip Top continuing to make uniforms after the war; her husband working on a piece work basis; the union’s opposition to making workers do piece work; street celebrations after the war; workers taking the day off for the celebrations; the anguish of the people who lost relatives during the war; disabled soldiers returning; parades for returned soldiers; her leaving the workforce after she got married; her view that it was “mostly a man’s world”; people getting rich during the war through profiteering and the black market; thinking that the suffragettes were comical but that they did accomplish a lot; liking to read newspapers and detective stories; and being in a march on November 11 to the synagogue and finding themselves marching to a Salvation Army Band playing “Onward Christian Soldiers”.
