During this sent. on, the open battle , for the right of women to study medicine has been fought and won. It has been a battle which has called forth all the old animosities and prejtulices which have obstructed the cause of female education for many years; and the women of the Woman's _Medical College of . Philadelphia, both faculty and student,, .have certainly borne themselves through it with a modest, patience and dignity and courage that has advanced their cause in the eyes cit all who have watched the develop ment of this phase of the " Woman Question with - anything like impartial eyes. In recording the list of graduates in the Women's Medical College, an interesting il lustration of thegerteral advance of the whole line of medical education is found in a com parison with the early .records of the vener able University of Pennsylvania. Twenty years after that great school began to graduate students, we find its liSts* of graduates, in 1788. numbering six; and not until 1797, or nearly thirty years from its commencement did it graduate the number which goes out to-day *rem *be WOitidn'a Medical College. Nor did its graduating class exceed that number until 1802, thirty-four years after it had begun to issue its diplomas. ,Itis a sign of the great change of the times, that in eighteen years the Woman's Medical College has, accomplished ruuchin the new department of female medical education as was reached by the Uoi versity of Pennsylvania in nearly double . that time. Musical Fund Hall was filled to-day with a large andienee l the largest portion being ladies. Ji seellent musts was furnished by-Carl Bentz's Orchestra. The exercises were opened with prayer by= Bishop !Simpson. . • T.
