This terse handwritten page contrasts 'CLEAN RAGS' with dirt uniforms, turning clothing into a blunt image of work, class, and condition.

The plural 'uniforms' broadens the image from one garment to a repeated social condition. The fragment is tiny, but it feels like a title and thesis at once.

'''Two-line minimal page: 'CLEAN RAGS / ANd dint Uniform.' A stark labor image -- clean rags but a dirty uniform, either the start of a new piece or a shorthand reminder.'''
