Presented at the fifty-first congress of the American Prison Association in 1921, this paper defines and examines what was referred to as the Vermont Prison Labor Law, which allowed a person sentenced to jail to work for a salary.

This book, published in 1920, examines a then-recent phenomenon of combining educational material and presentations with transportation facilities: the putting of exhibits, demonstrations, films, and other campaigning equipment on railroad trains, trolley cars, and motor trucks so that they may tour a large area of land. These vehicles were used to teach health, sanitation, and safety. Presented here is a review of these practices, with commentary by the author, aiming to stimulate the creation of new forms of illustrative material.
