Progress, indeed.

her chair is more comfortable
her clothing is less restrictive, owing to reduced standards of obedience to authority imposed on women
what she's reading is her own choice
notice how the bible woman has to sit? That's because she's shorter. Improved nutritional standards mean the 1915 woman is better-fed, and as a result, is taller

If she smokes, she pokes. Another freedom the other lady doesn't have.

I just noticed something about that chair. That style was a sort of precursor to the Lazy-Boy recliner - the back could be tilted backwards and forwards, held in place by a metal bar that rested on those notches on the back part of the arm rests. Not as convenient as a modern recliner since you actually had to get up off your ass to change the back angle, but still pretty comfortable.
