CANADIAN WOMEN.
AUCKLAND DELEGATE RETURNS. "Women in Canada take a wide view of everything. They are fully conversant with world affairs as well as with national and civic problems," said Mrs. Kenneth Gordon, a delegate from New Zealand to the Pan-Pacific Conference, who returned home by the Niagara yesterday. "In Vancouver," said Mrs. Gordon, "women, and men also, found it hard to believe that there were no women police in New Zealand." Mrs. Gordon made many inquiries into the primarv organisation and subsequent functioning of women police in Canada. From every aspect the institution of women police in that country was regarded as an unqualified success. In many ways Canada and New Zealand were similar, and she herself saw no reason why the success gained in Canada should not be repeated in New Zealand.
