History

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.

Which of the following was a draw for indentured servants coming to the Americans?
Finger [1]

Answer:

Mostly money and promise of the American dream.

Many poor Europeans and other immigrants heard about the Americans and their lavish lives and wanted to try their luck and escape their poverty. However, they didn't have enough money to emigrate to America which is why they would become indentured servants.

This meant that they would sign a contract with their employer who would then pay for their travel expenses to America, and in turn they would have to work for them for a number of years in return for food and shelter. When the contract expired, ideally the indentured servant became free (although this didn't always happen). Their status was slightly better than that of a slave.

(Since you didn't give us any options, I can't tell you the exact answer).
