Aliss Bradfield was requested by the principal to reconsider her resignation, but the call of. New Zealand and Gisborne in particular, was too. strong, and she lias adhered to -her decision to return. Not among the least oi' her reasons, is the fact that she has so many kind friends here, and she is looking forward to renewing her friendhips in this town again where she was so happy in her work. During the Easter vacation Miss Bradfield attended a school of music ; Betersfield, Hampshire, and availed herself of the full course of lectures given by eminent professors from London,” and she was in daily contact with some of the foremost musicians of the day 7.

MISS PRESTON STANLEY. Miss Millicent Preston Stanley is a lady of unusual ability and gilts, who was for some time a member of the House of Representatives in the New South Wales Parliament. At the present time, she is. director ot Reginald Weaver and Co., Ltd., a firm specialising in property investments in Sydney. These facts indicate that Miss Stanley possesses hath commercial and political ability, _and it is interesting to note that the Rt. Hon. W. M. Hughes, P.C., K.C., M... ex-Prime Minister of Australian Commonwealth, has said of her: ■‘lf I were leading a party I would ask no better or moie effective supporter than Miss Stanley. Miss Preston Stanley’s political programme, as published in connection with her candidature in New South Wales, hinged mainly upon health, especially health of children, the health of 'mothers, vocational guidance for girls and boys leaving school infant care and prison reform. During 1920-26 N.S.W. Parliament, Miss Stanley’s record was admirable, showing her close attention to the business of the House and, in addition to she kopt in constant contact with the electorates outside. As part of her interest in social reform, Miss Preston Stanley was closely identifiixl lor some time with die Rev. it. B. S. Hammond, in connection with the N.S.W. Alliance, and Mr. Hammond speaks in the highest possible terms of her capacity Her experience as one woman holding her own in a company of 89 men in the N.S.W. Parliament, is one that appeals to the sporting instinct. Whilst she takes, naturally, the woman’s viewpoint, Miss Preston Stanley's outlook i.s broad and up-to-date, and it is said that, as a platform speaker, she is unique. Miss Stanley will speak in the City Ha l on Friday night at- S o clock.
