WOMAN MINE DIRECTOR.
OTAGO CENTRAL COMPANY.
(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.)
DTJNEDIN, this day.
The share register of Cairnmuir Sluicing Company, Ltd., includes quite a number of women, and at the tory meeting of the company, held in, Cromwell, many of them attended-. The object of their attendance was plainly evident when it came to the election of directors, for, despite the recommendation of the directors that their number be seven, the women shareholders succeeded in carrying a motion that the number bo five, ■ and the five elected included Miss M. G. Nelson. '
This is probably a unique , event as far as mining company directorates in New Zealand are concerned.
