PENWOMEN'S CLUB.
ADDRESS ON JOURNALISM.
ill's. Carr Rollett, the president, presided over a representative gathering of members, who were keenly interested in a very attractive talk by Mrs. J. Weston Campbell, of London, on her "Experiences in Journalism—Then and Now." Mrs. Campbell left New Zealand some thirty years ago with a determination to enter the world of journalism, and through sheer hard work she obtained her objective, becoming the only woman contributor to a leading Government military paper. She is a strong advocate of Imperialism and of world peace, and has supported this idea as being essential in the satisfactory welding of the Empire and in maintaining her position in the world. According to ill's. Campbell, she considers journalism to be tho only profession in which there is~absolutely no prejudice against sex, the one qualification necessary being capability. Prior to Mrs. Campbell's address Mrs. Richards very charmingly sang "I've Been Roaming," Mrs. W. H. McKinney accompanying.
