Mrs. Edith W. Pierce, a nurse by training, became Philadelphia's first female city inspector of highways and street cleaning in 1913. She founded a Junior Sanitation League to encourage young people to take an interest in healthy urban environments. The Junior Sanitation League had over 10,000 members during her time, with each child wearing a pin that said "For Clean Philadelphia Streets." chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83045211/1914-09-19/ed-... She's mentioned in Martin V. Melosi, Garbage in the Cities: Refuse, Reform, and the Environment (University of Pittsburgh Press 2004): p. 106.
