Richard Pierce, Western Union Telegraph Co. Messenger No 2. 14 years of age. 9 months in service, works from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Smokes and visits houses of prostitution. Wilmington, Del. Photo by Lewis Hine, 1910.

In 1908 Hine became the photographer for the National Child Labor Committee (NCLC), leaving his teaching position. Over the next decade, Hine documented child labor, with focus on the use of child labor in the Carolina Piedmont, to aid the NCLC’s lobbying efforts to end the practice. In 1913, he documented child laborers among cotton mill workers with a series of Francis Galton’s composite portraits.

Hine’s work for the NCLC was often dangerous. As a photographer, he was frequently threatened with violence or even death by factory police and foremen. At the time, the immorality of child labor was meant to be hidden from the public. Photography was not only prohibited but also posed a serious threat to the industry. To gain entry to the mills, mines and factories, Hine was forced to assume many guises. At times he was a fire inspector, postcard vendor, bible salesman, or even an industrial photographer making a record of factory machinery.

10 Guys Reveal Why They Wanted To Get Married

1. I wanted the commitment. It has made me feel closer to my wife. We feel more like a unit.

Before we married we lived together for seven years. I wanted to get married two years in, she declined. She changed her mind at year six. Absolutely the right decision. It makes things like career sacrifices easier when you have that level of commitment. Make things like buying a house, having children, etc. just a bit easier. I know if I get sick she has rights. We’ll be married 29 years tomorrow.

It happens when someone continues investing in something, even though it no longer makes sense or brings benefits, simply because they have already invested so much.
