Banner being raised in downtown Dayton, Ohio, after the Great Flood of 1913. The banner reads:
Cheer up!
We’ve had our time of flood and gloom.
We’ve neared the awful doors of doom.
And some have entered in;
But now the sun of hope peeps out.
Old...   High-res

Girls’ restaurant, National Cash Register Company, Ohio, 1902

note: founded in 1884, the National Cash Register Company (or, NCR) is still going strong - although they focus on point-of-sale terminals, barcode scanners and ATM’s today. 

I also doubt they have separate eating facilities for ladies and gents today.
