To Miss Page, of Norwich, is to bo credited iho distinction of being tho first woman who has ever spoken in tho Foresters' High Court, On the concluding day of the recent congress hold at London there was a discnssion regarding the wisdom of electing a male trustee or treasurer for a female court. Oddly enough tho lady learned strongly to the male side of the question, saying that • It was nonsense to say that women were as competent as men to nianago or advise as to monetary matters. }\ tlwy elected a woman to this office she would consult her husband, and fchoy thought it bottor that the gentleman should bo consulted direct by'the court, and hold a position of responsibility."
