In tho munition factory delicate llttl girls, who never did anything moro la borious than drink tea and embroider be fore the war came, have yellowed their faces with dire chemicals in the caure of their country. In U e medical school In Jvew Tork hundreds of women tslll be equipped to the nth degree In a university at whose doors the? havo been beating; for many years. There is a treat difference in these two occupation, and jet -alien Dean Samuel A Lambert, of the medical faculty of Columbia, made- the announcement that Tornen could coma in after they had been kept out for 106 years he drew them vor close together. He dieu them so close that one might almost conclude that the -Roman who studies medicine at Columbia University hereafter will owe this achievement of right to the little girl who in yellowing her face and hei hands In the Industries of the world "This step has been taken," Dean Lam bert said, "after a long consideration, and has been hastened by a great change In woman's position in Europe since the outbreak of the great wai "The widespread and most successful employment of women in trades which previously have been considered ns be longing exclusively to men has caused the change in the attitude toward what has previously been considered women's Work." THERE Is no particular moial to this comparison but Just one. You will probably remember having wiltten it back in cop book das It said something about the power of good example. Perhaps I am wrong, but it seems that during the latter patt of the IOC jeais when woman was not a part of the medi cal student body of Columbia. It wasn't nil honest distrust of her ability that pre vented her from so being Perhaps there Vyvettes "&Hl9Nsift " MM&jR&iutt A nlum-colorcd elvet hat, with a roll of plum and old-gold-striped silk around tho brim and feathers of plum color and dull gold stuck in the crown. was a little bit of honest wishing that woman would let tho world bo and not much caring about whether she had 01 had not possibilities DOESN'T It neem, aftel all. that the opening of tho college to women comes i other as a raw aid than ns a recognition'' Tho recognition might have come jears ngo If It were onlv waiting around for miterl&l Judgment. There have been hundteds of women doctors good ones for mtfhy. many j ears' Somehow. I can't help but think that the little jellow face In the munition factorv Is speaking to men oil over tho woild And, after nil, It Isn't that the stained features signlf par excellence In fiorkmanship th.it is moving this man world to recognize women It is the spirit that will not stop even at a disfigured face lien cannot hold up their heads and fail to feci it Tho funny part Is they're Just beginning to know that underneath women have ulw.is been Just like that! .Biik. v We r i I .all.l.l.l.l.l.l.l.l.l.l.l.l.l.l.l.MrVLILIW-'"' W ISP K 1 .
