The new assignment intrigued Ruth since she had never dealt with protesters, but was determined to write an article that would impress her editor. When she drove into the parking lot at the Modern Girl’s Cosmetic Factory, she got out of the car and saw several people walking back and forth in front of the building, carrying large signs.
