DURING WORLD WAR I:

War tends to disrupt traditional norms surrounding gender and sexuality, and the First World War between 1914-1918 was no exception. Keep in mind, the U.S. did not become involved in the war until 1917. 

During World War I, many women entered the workforce for the first time. With significant numbers of men away in Europe, women were needed in various capacities. It is believed over 20,000 women worked as nurses during the war. Others worked in clerical positions for the U.S. Government. Telephone and radio operators were also common positions for women. 

On the home front, women assumed greater responsibility in public life as significant portions of the male population were 'over there' (as Europe was referred to during that time). Women too young or unable to work helped the war effort in various ways, such as planting 'victory' gardens.

After the first expedition, Columbus visited America twice more. The original expedition sailed to the Bahamas, and the next two led by Columbus ended up in Cuba and Haiti.

Leokris [45]

Answer:

Journal Entry:

Supporters of the Jersey Plan mostly come from the larger states like New York or New Jersey. They believe that the seats of Congress should be distributed according to the states population. This plan clearly benefits the larger states.

Supporters of the Virginia Plan mostly come from the smaller states and the South. They feel that the seats of Congress should be distributed equally among the states, regardless of population size. This plan clearly benefits the least populated states.

A compromise should be reached that benefits both sides. Perhaps a bicameral Congress with one chamber benefiting the most populated states, and the other chamber benefiting the least populated states.
