  11 June 1909 was a Friday ...

• beachcomber australia said:

  Why does the central nun have a rose on her head?

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  beachcomber australia That's not a rose! That's a naughty behaviour detector!

• Foxglove said:

  the "naughty behaviour detector" is attached, as I squint, to the nurse apron behind, the expression of the woman with the book is priceless "my girls!!" intrigued also by the woman at centre front with the plaid apron - teacher or nurse. the sleeve covers are truly from a period past

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Foxglove plaid apron also wears a "Votes for Women" button. EDIT I think the button could be from the Irish Women’s Franchise League (IWFL) which was started in 1908 by Margaret Cousins and Hanna Sheehy Skeffington.
