f all the man-sized jobs women have tackled during the war

-f all the man-sized jobs women have tackled during the war, none is perhaps bigger than that undertaken by Mrs Taylor of Bury, Lancashire. Forty-eight years old, widowed mother of a married son and daughter, despite her 5ft 5 inches, she daily keeps going a 5 x 8 Cornish boiler, rated at 2, 500 lbs output per hour, supplying steam for 18 workshops.
Mrs Taylor stokes up, she has already won a reputation for keeping a good bright level fire all over the Grate area, amazed everyone by the way she has taken to the job.
