NOTABLE WOMEN.
The first woman to hold the position of aerial police-woman is Mrs Ulysses Grant M’Queen, of Beverly Hills, California, U.S.A. Mrs M’Queen’s other claims to aerial fame are that she founded and is president of the Women’s Aeronautical Association of California, is chairman of the aviation division of the California Women of the Golden West, originator of last 3'ear’s Women’s Air Derby in U.S.A., and founder and vice-president of the Women’s International Association of Aeronauts. To journey through Palestine, Arabia and Syria by caravan, painting all the way, will be the interesting experience of Miss Constance Paul, of Sydney, a talented young portrait and landscape painter, who left for Alexandria this month. Miss Paul has two portraits on view in the Archibald Prize Collection in Sydney at the present time. A friend of all the newsboys of Australia and honorary secretary of the Newsboys’ Society, Miss Edith Onians received a wonderful welcome on her return to Melbourne from a trip abroad recently. During her sojourn in England. America and Europe, Miss Onians carefully studied the delinquency question in every country she visited, and had some interesting comments to make on her observations.
